    A little worried that we play after Inter and Lazio for this one. 3 points here gives us a lot of breathing room going into the Juve match.

    Interested in scouting Barella. Especially if Cagliari go down. Could be a good young pickup.

    Both out. Strootman will be good for Juve. Perotti is at risk.

    Their regista Cigarini is suspended because of a red card last week.

    Arguably our trickiest game left this one. Regardless of what Lazio/Inter do earlier, winning again tonight would all but seal top 4 for me.

    I like our chances against Juve. We'll have a full week to recover and prepare. They have the small matter of a CI final a few days before and to me looked pretty jaded at times in their match against Inter. The game will also not be a win or bust situation for them by any means, with a final game at home to relegated Verona. Nonetheless, it's vital we win tonight to avoid the situation in which we (likely) have to beat Juve to remain in full control of our destiny.

    As for Sassuolo, they'll likely have secured their Serie A status by the time we play them. It's another game we'll have a full week to recover/prepare for. I'd be fairly confident of beating them if needs be to secure top 4. Of course, ideally we'll have it wrapped up before then though.

    Bruno Peres is Cags best attacker. Please get him off.

    Non regulars and very tired regulars. That's what we have out there tonight, so all things considered, gotta be happy with that half. Just gotta get through this game and make sure we get those 3pts.

    Gerson is such a weird player.

    He doesn't look terrible anywhere but also doesn't look good anywhere. You'd love to keep a guy who is willing to plug in anywhere and at least provide cover, but he needs to find his spot.

    Yeah, not pretty, but a lead nonetheless.

    Ninja looks extra toasty. We should bring on Pellegrini to play the second half.

    Gerson the invisible man. It feels like Roma is playing with 10.

    I would like to see more of Capradossi. He is not bad really.

    I'll take it. The players looked exhausted and still got the win.

    Now we need at most 3 points from our last two games to secure CL.

    What a game. The atmosphere was incredible. Cagliari were giving 150%. Game was essentially a MMA match. The physicality was off the charts.

    Some scary moments, but Alisson is the best GK in Italy.

    All we need is 1 point to mathematically secure CL.

    Juve need 1 points to mathematically win the scudetto.

    I smell a biscotto next week.

    Gerson is just way out of his depth, the past managers see the talent, but he just has no idea where to play
