Team is as good at balls to the wall defending as it was under Jose....now it has balls on the ball too. Cant ask for more. A team to be proud of again. A gruelling schedule ahead. It's going to be tough, very tough. But you would give this Roma a chance.
I thought we never stood a chance in this tie. Especially last few years sucking in big games in serie a.But we did it.

Sanches is apparently still here lol. Guess he is this season's Winjaldum. I can't believe how much different Pellegrini looks under DDR. I've been critical of him in the past, but aside from just his recent good form on the ball, his efforts defensively and overall energy is completely different lately. Sell him while he is hot. Nice to see Smalling back. Stats wise, I wonder where he stands as a CB pre injury at Roma compared to other CBs In Europe. To my eye, he has always been a rock for Roma
