DDR benched I'm interested in seeing how this midfield works....I think Bradley and Florenzi can play well off each other.
Atmosphere leaves a lot to be desired. I don't like all the empty seats close to the pitch. It's one thing when there's a track around the pitch which is common in Serie A, but without a track all the empty seats near the pitch just doesn't look good.
I'm behind, but that control by MB at the corner of the box was impressive, possession before the goal.
Palermo must have watched the Spurs match yesterday, those inswinging corners aimed right at the goal are tough to handle.
Oh dear. A play that begins with Bradley getting stripped ends with Osvaldo passing into an open net. 2-0 Roma. Better description. Piris (?) passed to Bradley from the back, he tried to hold it up but it got stripped. Piris I think knocked it away, an aimless long ball forward which Osvaldo chased. It was coming to nothing until the keeper and defender collided.
