If he made the 5 he missed back in 07 I think it was, he could have had 305! Totti Reaches 300 for Roma
Some great images of Totti being created with his 300th goal and 39th birthday being so close together. This one is prob my fave from the past week ...
Ronaldo: "To play against Totti was an honour, he's a true champion. Im proud to be from the same generation as him" pic.twitter.com/awV6h9BuBq— CalcioASRoma (@CalcioASRoma) December 3, 2015 673997816587403264 is not a valid tweet id “Totti is a fantastic technician; he’s a wonderful footballer,” claimed Gerrard, who now plays for LA Galaxy. “The reason I’ve got so much respect for him is because he’s got all the pressure on his shoulders in Rome. He’s the king of Rome. Having played for Liverpool, a big club, I understand the responsibility and the pressure he’s got to deliver for the supporters. I’ve been there and I’ve seen it with my own eyes. They idolise him over there and that comes with its own pressure. So to perform consistently for Roma, for such a long time and stay loyal, I’ve got an awful lot of respect for him. He’s certainly a legend over in Italy." “I think when you get close to him, you realise how strong he is on the ball. He picks up some wonderful positions between the lines. I remember playing the holding role against him one time and he was always out of sight. He always picked up clever positions in the number 10 role and the ball was like Velcro to his boot. "He was very skillful and maneuvered the ball very well. And his vision, he could see things on the pitch that other players couldn’t really see. As a player, I’ve got unbelievable respect for him. I’ve managed to meet him a couple times along the way as well and he seems like a good guy as well. “He’s shown incredible loyalty to his club and his badge and he deserves all the plaudits and merits he gets. I can only add to that. It’s been a pleasure to compete against him a couple of times and I certainly would’ve loved to have played in the same team as him. He’s certainly the type of player that would be on the wavelength that I’d be looking for. “He would’ve been a joy to play with. I remember we signed Alberto Aquilani and I was saying to him, ‘What’s De Rossi like and what’s Totti like?’ and he spoke volumes about them. And that's when you get a flavour for what people are really like. He was saying that basically those two have carried Roma for so many years. They deserve all the plaudits they get.” Oh and apparently Totti met with Pallotta to work on a contract extension
He’s certainly the type of player that would be on the wavelength that I’d be looking for. You're a funny guy Gerrard.
That really cracked me up. That and the part about Totti certainly being a legend over there in Italy. Totti is in a completely different planet than Gerard. 20 years from now the only people that will talk about Gerard will be in England. Totti is an international legend. Thanks for coming out though Stevie G.
