Roma fans Thread

Good game, you lot will make the OT game very end to end it could be a cracker 4-3?:)
 
well played Roma attacked ManU a lot only if your defense was more solid and if you had finished the plays you started would have been a completely different results!! Kudos to ManU for taking their opportunities which were presented to them!!
 
I was slightly disappointed because of the no. of long balls Roma played, even though they were never going to trouble Vidic and Rio.
 
Vucinic was shite last night. I was raving about him a few weeks ago too.
 
He's still great striker with lots of potential(only 23/24?),
he doesn't suit the lone forawrd role well at the moment.

Last night showed a prime example of how Mancini is overrated
and over-priced.

there was no urgency in roma's game last night til they bought on guily...

vucinic is 24 mate ;))
and yes, he's a fantastic player. unfortunately he plays for the wrong team, as, being a foward in a team where totti plays, means having really a few chances to play in your proper role.

he should still be considered a poacher (and he proved what a lethal poacher he can be at lecce a few years ago). he has the killer instinct a poacher must have, and he could score tons of goals, if he would get more playtime.
but u just can't expect him to be constant, considering the playtime he gets..... and however he has been damn good this season almost every time he played in his proper role (his goals per minutes percentage is fucking awesome!).

but, unlike most of the top fowards in europe, he also has an amazing technique, wich allows him to play also as SS. and thanks to his technique, his ability to play always with his "head up", his pace and his fantastic first touch passing ability, he was also able to play as a wing in the last 2 years..... and he was fantastic in that role too!

i really love this player :))

talking about mancini, i agree with u, Sabac, he's pretty overrated... many people consider him a world class wing, but he has not the constance required to be considered world class. when he's on form he can be simply unmarkable..... but when he's not in the right mood, he just disappears from the pitch.
still a damn good player, anyway:))

:-| Not good.

Played decent aswell.. better than 2 - 0

But oh well, I guess its all or nothing in the second leg.

Hopefully Totti's back along with Juan.

Wishful thinking Jake, he will miss this weekends game against Genoa & the return leg at Old Trafford.
 
totti has ability to change things but other roma players must join him.a big surprize may happen but christiano ronaldo has a great form.roma must stop him first.
 
I think Roma are a very good side but we'll have too much for you at Old Trafford next week.

Good luck anyway lads!

:)
 
i think itll be something like 2-1.
they gotta try and get the goals but there also gonna try play it tight.
they're in tough position but il put money on 2 - 1.

Only reason i think they'll get one goal is by abit of luck though.
coz none of the italian sides have scored in england this season?

That's the difference with United & Roma though. Rooney, Scholes, Giggs, Ronaldo and Carrick ALL have the ability to change a match in a second.

i don't think so honestly. roma too has many players who can change a match just by themselves: taddei, vucinic, perrotta, aquilani, de rossi (i'm really happy both aquilani and de rossi refused real madrid proposal this week :)))...
not to mention mancini.... he's not really constant, and he's not even the shadow of c. ronaldo.... but still, when he's in the right mood, he's simply unmarkable.

honestly if i could choose between a midfield couple composed by aquilani-de rossi or carrick-scholes, i would have no hesitations picking the roma duo.... even if i really rate carrick..and even if i have an ENOURMOUS respect for paul "the legend" scholes.

both roma and manchester are fantastic teams, both of them have a lot of quality, world class coaches, both of them play a fantastic football, and both of them are composed by many young players.....

but manchester youngsters are just more confident than roma's ones. actually the only roma youngster who has more personality than manchester players is de rossi.

and in a in or out competition, like the champions league, personality is a huuge factor.

moreover roma is not facing a good shape moment. the giallorossi performances in the last month (since the madrid match) were not really that great....

on the other side instead manchester is having an amazing shape moment, they're playing with a fantastic coolness and by watching them playing, u clearely have the feeling they make everything look very simple.

so i can't honestly see roma going through the next stage. if they would have played this double match 1 or 2 months ago the situation could have been different.... but in this moment they are not at their best... while united at the moment is arguably the strongest team in europe. :))

good luck btw guys ;))

Good post btw.
football can be a funny old game but im still confident that man utd can do it.
 
Roma= Proper European Football Club

I seriously doubt any single Manc was supporting Liverpool the other night.
 
I always support English clubs in Europe. Even you lot (pool).

Shhould be a tight match, now that fergie has taken away our two counterattacking trheats. Stupid. Stupid. Stupid.
