    Daniele is a true servant. They could have given him a 10-year contract and he wouldn't have held out for compensation after if he got canned inside 3 months.

    IMO the fact he showed up and tried to beat the undefeated German champs is good enough reason to believe in him. Gutsy manager is what you need. Bless him.

    The Turkish League is actually pretty good.

    Probably will surpass Portugal and Eredivisie in a few years

    Daniele inherited a very shitty situation, as any team after Mourinho usually is, and did almost the impossible with picking up the pieces. The end of the season was always going to be rough, especially with Lose ********ing up every easy and difficult game for the first 20 matches, so our strikers were gone by the time De Rossi showed up.

    The only thing I'm mad about is that we've managed to get into yet another non-CL European competition - another endless drain of our stamina for nothing, that would put yet another spike in our next season's ability to challenge for top 4.

    3 year contract for Daniele..

    1 year extension would’ve been better don’t you think.

    avevano detto che se non avesse raggiunto la champions Daniele De Rossi sarebbe stato esonerato. Ora aspettiamo l'esonero ! Daniele De Rossi ha fallito ! voto 4

    They may give DDR a few chances next campaign and as soon as things will go bad, they will probably call Claudio Ranieri to be a caretaker until the end of the season.

    Have faith in him. There's a clear style of football, results will come. Look at Arsenal and Milan. Pioli was supposed to get fired and he turn the things around. Not qualifying for CL will hurt our transfer market.

    With the downtrend in form you are lucky to be getting any European football at all next season.

    "3 year contract" is meaningless. He can be fired at any time.

    If he can get to European finals each of the next two seasons, then surely he'll be fired half way through his 3rd season.

    I wonder how if the ticket sales will slump back to pre-Jose numbers?

    Dybala and Smalling will leave and they will have to use more academy players. Svilar will be sold to Premier League.

    Hey guys i have a good strategy,
    let's hire one of the most winningest coaches ever, who has more trophies than 99% of all european managers, and let's wait until halfway through his 3rd season and fire him then.
    This is a very sound strategy. Now we can move forward to the Champions league.

    I have another winning strategy for you

    Eat shit. Then on your way out, eat some dick. De Rossi's dick if you prefer, but you'll first need to dislodge it from Mourinho's ass. Might stink like old shit, but what Mourinho is at this point, so you better get used to the smell.

    Yeah, here's one for you Mousexuals.

    Mourinho lamenting only having Calafiori and two others available on the bench for Defenders. DDR regrets seeing them leave (he wasn't involved in either Calafiori or Frattesi leaving).

    Just maybe if Mou was able to extract the best out of Richy the way Basel and Bologna did, you would have a CB for the next decade. At the very least recognize that a CB needs more time. A Roman that came through the Roma system at that and gone. Talk about a cluster********. For those that understand the language.

    If they were canned sardines instead of footballers, Loserinho would've done a better job recognizing talent. Can't expect anything more from a portuguese bus driven raised on sardines and excuses.

    Talk of De Rossi seeing Dybala as a false 9 for next season. Hope they don’t go down that road and just sign a proper 9, especially with how fragile Dybala is. Too many teams also play with 3 CB’s now in Italy, which is a bad matchup.
