Don't know who will come as subs if we play Totti--Osvaldo--Lamela.Don't want Destro to come unless we are say at least 2-0 up.Haven't seen of Tallo yet though and don't expect him either.
this is tough stadium to visit. juve, milan had some helps there. we wont sniff anywhere near those type of refs help out here
I'm going to go against the general consensus and say I'd like to give DDR another start. The classic gambler's fallacy and just expect a different result this time around since he is 'overdue' for a good performance.
Bradley should be on the bench after his horrible performance against Napoli. Stek should start because he's motivated to take his place back in the squad and prove himself. StekelenburgPiris - Marquinhos - Castan - BalzarettiDe Rossi - Tachtsidis - FlorenziLamela - Osvaldo - Totti
I highly doubt Stek is motivated to take his place back, if he was he wouldn't be running away to England
At this point stick with Goico, let the guy gain some more experience and find some consistency. Bouncing back and forth wont help either keeper. If we are sticking with Goico then stick with him. If we are going to give Stek another chance you let him wear the gloves for a good stretch. However I think Stek is already gone.
DDR has to start, massive over reaction to a bad game after the Christmas break.....He will show his worth
Technically he's played like crap all season long, at this point the one good game has been the anomaly. Got to call it like it is, and this is from someone who chose his handle after the player.
Apparently Osvaldo suffered a bruised knee in training and could miss the Catania game. So we might see Destro...better get the pitchforks and torches ready.
Marquinhos has fever, and Castan has foot injury too.Along with osvaldo, those are the doubtful players. No pjanic as he is suspended.
why we always ends the first half of season with a great hope, then on the second half, we begin to crumple? now that its confirmed we play Fiorentina in florence, we play away in one week. we went to America, then, travelled to Napoli, then to Catania, later to florence, that is all in 8 days. very difficult time. its showing now, marcos with flu, castan, romangoli( he would have played few games in here if he didnt get injured) hope we pick up.
Roma squad for Catania: Balzaretti, Bradley, Burdisso, Castan, De Rossi, Destro, Dodo, Florenzi, Goicoechea, Lamela, Lobont, Marquinho, Marquinhos, Perrotta, Piris, Stekelenburg, Tachtsidis, Taddei, Totti
---------Stek------------ Piris--Marcos-Castan- Balza -- Tach--De Rossi--Florenzi ---Lamela--Destro-- Totti
Hopefully we find the rhythm needed to get the game and team going....I dont have a bad feeling today, I think we will win well
I find this as a positive thing, though...Everything has an end (like us breaking all of our positive statistics over the past couple of years)...
