    Fonseca: "Florenzi went out on loan so he could play. Fans are sad? Not a problem for me."

    Bravo. The mentality needs to be to win - enough with the romanticism.

    First, as I've been preaching, no reason to worry about FFP and now we finally aren't. It's a rule that's not enforced with any real punishment.

    Second, I've been saying for some time now it's better to give your core players higher salaries rather than spend the money on transfers (amortization costs).

    Win what? A 4th place with another glorious battle with Atalanta while spending top 3 salaries in the lerague?

    Ha! Haha! Hahahaha!

    The only thing a Fonseca / Petrachi team would even be able to win is simpathy, and its cousin pity.

    Keeping him and standing by him after his 2 ACL tears and giving him such a high salary when he was the one that waited so long to extend was already a lot of romanticism imo.
    Just wait for it. We won't worry about it this season because we just can't fulfill the requirements but my guess is that we'll comply with whatever UEFA wants us to do afterwards again. Take the slap on the wrist and go into some sort of agreement again.
    I'd like that too but we already have one of the worst wages to revenue ratios in Europe.

    We're not "worrying about it" because there is no way we'll satisfy the requirements with the buildup of purchases over the years. This is not some newfound policy of total disregard for it. We'll likely get some sort of reprieve/ lighter punishment with the ownership change, so it's a convenient time to run afoul.

    Lol because santon caused this today. Florenzi would have made the difference. What level of retard do you have to be to use this game to vent about Santon.

    That's not his point. His point is you and some others held Florenzi accountable when the team played poorly.

    Florenzi is so good yet Fonseca would rather play Santon and Bruno Peres in his place... let that sink in dumbass.

    That was his point. " we are fine with Santon"

    Its just a dumb non point given the situation. The team did not turn up to the start of this match. Today as we have seen so many times is a Roma attitude problem. Its beyond boring and I'm losing interest in arguing about it.

    At least he wasn't being pulled after 45 minutes of being beyond awful

    Florenzi is bad, but our other full backs are even worse. You have to be Mongo levels of delusion to think we are okay with Bruno and Santon as starters.

    And nice straw man claiming I blame florenzi for the team playing poorly. I have always given a fair account of the game I watch. I have praised florenzi when he has had a good game and I have ripped him on occasions when he needed it such as showing a total lack of respect for the shirt as captain when chasing back Ronaldo.
