Cassano loses vice-captaincy Sunday 24 July, 2005
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Roma starlet Antonio Cassano has been sensationally stripped of the club’s vice-captaincy.
Cassano was only handed the honour last summer, but has been told he will no longer wear the armband should Francesco Totti be unavailable for selection.
Totti remains as captain, with Vincenzo Montella being promoted to vice-captain, ahead of Christian Panucci and then Cassano.
"When deciding who is captain, you have to factor in the number of appearances for the club, the value of the player and his behaviour," said new boss Luciano Spalletti.
"I really don’t think this discussion should be widened because I have used a normal criteria in making this decision.
"Cassano asked me for the reasons and I think he has accepted them. This is something normal."
However, this latest development casts further doubt over the future of Cassano in the capital.
The Juventus target has less than a year left on his contract and there are no signs to suggest that he will extend.
Cassano played no part in Roma’s first game of the season either, a friendly against a local team from Castelrotto.
The Serie A giants won 8-0, with Spalletti opting to use a 4-2-3-1 formation, but Cassano was not available because of a knee problem.

Roma Fans Continue Insulting Cassano
7/25/2005 7:49:00 AM
The supporters of the Giallorossi have jeered the young Bari talent since the start of the summer camp.
There is no peace for Antonio Cassano who is entrapped in his golden Roma cage as the Uefa ban has not been lifted as of yet, therefore excluding a possible move away from the Capital city. To make things worse, his fans have turned against him and every training session is a good excuse for them to insult ‘Peter Pan’.
The latest incidents occurred on Sunday when the supporters hurled abuse towards the player, telling him, among other things: “Cassano like Capello, we don’t want you anymore", “Cassano go to work” and “Cassano we just want respect”.
Cassano has also been stripped off his vice captain role in the team, which was handed to Montella and Panucci.
