Roma – Genoa 1-0

It was a difficult game because of our absences, because of the good tactics of Ballardini's Genoa and because we didn't play very well. We did a bit of rotation and Smalling (welcome back!), Man of the match, finished in the few ...

Sunday opponent: Genoa.

Ballardini fielded 352. It is a team of old foxes, with great experience, therefore difficult to beat, but in the long term, for the game and for the season it could pay the price. Mainly the wings are important: Zappacosta (our old ...

Fiorentina – Roma 1-2

Roma did not play very well, but they managed with cynicism to bring home the lampredotto. There were no great emotions in the first half and Fiorentina were more dangerous with Vlahovic. On that occasion he was good ...

Wednesday opponent: Fiorentina.

Prandelli fielded the 352 with little possession and very vertical. They also press and are very careful in the defensive phase. They have an excellent defensive phase (with the midfielders and in particular with the 3 central backs: Milenkovic, Pezzella and Martinez Quarta), but ...

The opponent of sunday: the AC Milan

Pioli deploys the 4231 which develops mainly centrally (mainly with the long throw for Ibra) or develops on the flanks (in particular their left, our right) to look for the cross for Ibra or Rebic. From behind they build with ...

Roma – Braga 3-1

Roma were able to control and dominate the game from the first minute to the last. Braga has never been dangerous. The defensive phase and the role adaptations worked well. Good Karsdorp as a right defensive center, good Veretout as ..

Thursday opponent: SC Braga

They could start with 4231 with R.Horta-Piazon-Galeno behind Soprar or Ruiz. The most dangerous player is always the left winger, Galeno, who is mainly right-footed and good at both going towards the center to look for the shot, but he's even better ...

Benevento – Roma 0-0

A whole series of expedients to equalize by Benevento. They really make me sick. Benevento showed the worst of Italian football. Showy simulations often sanctioned by Pairetto like fouls. Ridiculous wastes of time for injured players who ...

Sunday's opponent: the Benevento.

The media often talked about 352 for Benevento with Barba third central back, in reality they play with 442 with De Paoli right back, Barba left back (both very good in defensive phase) and with Insigne (or Ionita) winger ...
