Furious Roma punish Panucci
The disciplinary situation at Roma is breaking down after Christian Panucci was punished for “offensive behaviour.”
The defender has not been included in the squad that will take on Palermo at the Stadio Olimpico tomorrow afternoon.
“He behaved offensively and disgracefully with me and with the team,” explained Coach Gigi Del Neri. “The incident happened today in training and he showed a lack of respect that cannot be tolerated.”
There are no details yet on what exactly caused the latest ruckus, but Panucci has a long history of rubbing tacticians and teammates up the wrong way.
“Those who do not respect the rules will be punished,” added the former Chievo boss, “and the club will take steps.”
It has been a tough few days for Panucci, who was sent off for jumping with his elbow raised during the 3-1 defeat to Bayer Leverkusen. Yesterday UEFA inflicted a two-match Champions’ League ban for that same incident.
It is only the latest sign of trouble in a Giallorossi side that seems to be disintegrating from within. Philippe Mexes and Daniele De Rossi are also suspended in the Champions’ League for petulant kicks at opponents, while Antonio Cassano has already walked out on the team several times this season.
Cassano has also been left out of tomorrow’s Palermo match as he is training by himself – supposedly to help him get back his form, but this is a tactic often used with players in contract disputes.
This week President Franco Sensi told the press, “I don’t know if we want to keep Cassano. It’s not a financial issue, it’s one of personality. His performance against Leverkusen was worthy of a slap.”
Roma squad: Aquilani, Corvia, Cufre, Curci, D’Agostino, Dacourt, Delvecchio, De Rossi, Ferrari, Mancini, Mexes, Mido, Montella, Perrotta, Sartor, Scurto, Totti, Zotti, Briotti
