i'll pinch u dude, very hard one

did he mentioned the details of the offer?i think the amount of money offered is the most interesting issue here..i think all clubs will have their offers heard by valencia only if the money is 30million euros or above

i think its more logical for roma to be interested on etoo, rather than cisse

er, do roma have the players to use other systems?

imo, teams who play this kind of tactics (1 striker supported by a group of creative midfielders) always have problems to change their style of play, especially in the middle of a season

maybe roma should try totti-vucinic partnership upfront? er, somehow i doubt that will work..

but yeah i agree spal should be allowed to stay..he is good in tactics..he will find something..now it is just those injuries make things bad for roma

Yup, roma's real strikers are only totti and okaka..if roma want to use 2 strikers, totti would be surely play as 2nd striker..and the toughest question to answer is who will be the top striker?i think the best option is vucinic..but he is not a true striker himself..okaka is still too young..or can he be another balotelli? i am not considering baptista now just yet..he still struggle to keep himself fit

hmm, have okaka been given enough chances so far on the field this season?

i think that is the problem now..roma's only out-and-out striker cant head the ball well and too slow already..to play such a role certainly needs more than very good technique of shooting a football (i admire totti because his shooting skills )..

now i really want to watch roma game..can anybody tell me what time is roma's game tonight?maybe need to stream the match later

just read about the match at goal.com

the field was so soaked up even the bouncy football cant bounce on any area of the field

next match is against juve right?maybe roma have a bit of advantage coming into that game, because juve's match was played as scheduled last night..roma players will be fresher for this weekend showdown

didnt watched the match..of course la because i watched barca that time

vucinic have prove me wrong he scored 2 while playing as a striker beside totti..but as he hit top form, how about totti's performance?

no reports of some political gestures during the match?

but roma should be relieved because lazio missed so many chances..

and who is the main free kick taker for roma now?de rossi or totti?

Montella?the aeroplane?
maybe not, you mentioned that he is a youngster..

Oh sorry my bad..didnt read your post correctly

i think he should think of retiring now..has he mentioned about hanging his boot recently?

another news is about the possibilities of lippi recalling totti for italy squad..is that still possible?he has announced his retirement from the national squad right?together with nesta

Cassano played as Samp captain? Did he get emotional again?

I'm impressed by Baptista's performance. Great skills he showed there

I think Rosi and Andreolli are making a slow progress, no?

Marco Motta is indeed a good capture though. Better make it a permanent deal soon.

Hey Chrisky, we got a perfect goal thread here right? Since many voted pass-pass-pass bang goals there, why not if you post Cicinho's goal as a sample. A great sample. The move started from Cicinho in RB position, finished off by the same guy in a striker position. Pretty awesome move there . I think that is the best among those three.

I was surprised surprised surprised while looking at how Vucinic missed that PK. Dreaming??? Hardly a suitable time to get dreaming.

And I was surprised too when I heard at half time that Juan scored for Roma. Wasn't he highly doubtful for the match? Or he played through pain?

Edited: Just read the match news. Juan injured again eh? A recurring one?

Before that, Roma have to look for a good coach first. Have the sacked doctor been replaced already?

Good luck to Luis. His work with our B team in the last 3 seasons has been remarkable. Third in Segunda was the highest placing in the history of our B team. But managing Roma is gonna be a whole new challenge, as while with Barca B, he only managed youngsters and some older players with flagging career. The ego was nearly nonexistent.

And de la Pena has also joined him at Roma too I heard

Jeffren and Oriol have good talents. And under Luis, Jonathan scored 32 goals in Segunda last season. Although he is now already 25, Roma can hope that he'll be a late bloomer.

But there is an interesting article in Sport.es, that Luis has reveal in his blog that no agreement has been signed, although it really seems an agreement is imminent. Well Luis surely won't throw this chance away I guess.

I think Spanish people often call 'Jose Angel Valdes' as 'Jose Angel', not Valdes.

Well I've heard of him before as a decent young left back set to rise to the top. And he had a good game against Barca last season as well. But don't put too much expectation on him yet. Firstly La Liga has seen several young emerging full backs being snapped up by bigger clubs, but disappear thereafter. Secondly Angel has never actually hold up a regular 1st team place at Sporting (he shared the position with the older Canella). Thirdly during Euro U21, he played not even one game, as Luis Milla preferred Didac Vila most of the time. And yes, Vila is the unfortunate boy who has returned to Espanyol after making only 1 appearance with Milan last season

Still, its a known fact that Barca showed some interest, and has even bid for him. So he should possess some quality right? The key: Just be patient, OK?

He's still in Barcelona I think. His media conference at Camp Nou has just been concluded. He will fly out shortly to Rome later to sign the contract.

I sure will drop by this thread more often next season
