Really, brah?

- 25% for trolling.

[Lupi]

did i watch the same game or it was different, change the channel please!
We aren't playing well and the team clearly needs work and Its just not good enough. The only thing is the games against Empoli came at the worst time possible because they play organised football and we struggled against that even in our best form.

Seriously?

[salmano9]

It wasn't a troll, just really stating the difference in points after tomorrow's game, and ur just mad cuz ur a romanista, if I had posted it in GS then I wouldn't have got the -25

[salmano9]

@Mclewis: So basically, if sportczy comes and posts news that pogba and vidal are leaving, thats not trolling... And if I come here, and simply post what will happen tomorrow, its news as well man... If thats the case, then sportczy should have been banned a long time ago.

Nobody just likes juve in this section.

Keep going, brah.

Either be respectful in this section or don't post here. I see that again and it's another -25% off.

If you want to troll Roma, do it in your own section.

Ok bro... I just wanna say one thing (no troll intended):
Don't you think that Pjanic deserves a 2 match ban for his elbow? And Empoli deserved a penalty for that Mbiwa elbow too?

I certainly think Mire was lucky to stay on and Mapou's elbow could've gone either way. I probably would've given it had I been the ref, but others may not have.

Both were probably controversial calls, but whatever...neither did us any favors. We needed a win and we didn't get it. That's what matters.

[DeviAngel]

-9

Salmano stay out of this section when you want to post this kind of things in such delicate situation, because I will be the one to lower -25%.

[Lupi]

I think you are being harsh on the lad here, -9 is something that Tuttosport wrote as well. One Romanista saved us in Udinese, stramaccioni the manager that always had my support in Inter.
The lad misses the point that its managers job to give players enthusiasm and help them mentally to over come the rut situation we are in hence the Scudetto talk. The referee talk has always been and will be a part of football, sarri accuse Roma, Benitez accuse Juve, conte accuse Juve and so on. Its not even only in serie A mourinho and wenger or mourinho against all is the best example of it.
Hopefully we wake the *bleep* up and  make serie A watchable again.

[Lupi]

With 11 injuries we are facing the black cats of our team, Conti becomes the combination of zidane+viera in this fixture. It gets even worse that we don't know Zola the manager that well. IDk what to expect, what do you think?

[flameas]

Do or die, Roma

[Lupi]

verde with two assists
paredes with a goal

[McLewis]

And we sure did "do" today.

Not a pretty performance by any means (when's the last time we seen one?), but that's fine with me. Results are what matter now with Juve pulling away and Napoli getting close to us. A win today was absolutely vital and frankly priceless given the amount of players missing.

Daniele Verde made his case for staying in the squad once Gervinho and Doumbia return. He might just be the player that Gianluca Caprari (remember him?) could've and probably should've been. Paredes continued to impress and while his yellow was very stupid, his goal was fantastic and showcased his potential.

In summary: The Kids Are Alright

[flameas]

Cagliari deserved more tbh. Astori and Yanga were all over the place when they were attacked with pace, Cagliari could have score 3-4 goals.

Now we have too many forwards tbh.

Totti, Gervinho, Doumbia, Ljalic, Florenzi, Verde, Itrube, Ibarbo, Sanabria, Paredes

Though Paredes and Florenzi can be used elsewhere, but still.. what up. And we couldnt sign any defenders.

[McLewis]

Nothing wrong with depth. A lot better than where we were last year.

Paredes has never really been a forward. At best he's an attacking midfielder of the Pjanic mold. He'll need to refine the defensive to his game just like Pjanic as well. He drew some comparisons, IIRC, to Riquelme when he was coming up at Boca Juniors.

I do agree though....our defense was once again atrocious. All 4 of them were dire. De Sanctis had way too much to do, but handled it all very well.

I must also say that Nainggolan and Keita easily had their worst games in Roma shirts as well. Midfield really let us down in this game as there was no protection for the defense, which got exposed very badly.

[Lupi]

I think we tried to send pjanic up front to support Totti and turned into bit of a double pivot even though I like ninja but he cant be the play maker nor Keita so the build up play suffered.

[McLewis]

Totti and Maicon out against Parma with Gervinho and Doumbia called into the squad.

Not letting Parma's problems or the table position fool me into believing this will be an easy win. We'll have to fight hard for this win, as always.

Thoughts on an XI for this fixture, lads?

[Lupi]

while i was watching Parma's game against Milan, i saw them as a team that can trouble our defence. They created opportunities and could have had 2 or 3 in first half. Milan however got a penalty that changed it for them and menez composed finishing. The game is far from easy 3 but the pairing of Lucarelli-Santacroce can help us if we avoid conceding early goals. In short the result depends on which Roma step on the pitch the Roma that gifts opponents goals by making numerous mistakes or the one that dominate the game and force their plan to opponent.

[Forza]

Napoli just got Palermo'd, so that relieves the pressure somewhat. Now you have the chance to get more of an advantage.

[McLewis]

Verde on and making an instant impact....again.

Such a bright player he is.

[salmano9]

Verde he looks so mature.

[salmano9]

You shouldn't be thinking about them tbh... if you want the scudetto you should only be thinking about us.

[flameas]

this shitty side wont win anything..

Garcias time might come to a end if things go like this.. cleary it was idiotic to start gervinho and doumbia, while you had Verde and Paredes on fire..
