Crucial match to keep pace with top 4. Hopefully the boys can produce a good performance after the last two shitshows.
Could see VAR intervene on that retarded foul of Mancini if we got a goal there. The guy's just so braindead. Good start apart from that. Should've taken the lead already. More chances in 25mins than the last two Serie A games combined.
Very good first half but in the end it's Svilar who saves our ass again. Get ready for another 0:1 loss from a counter attack. Jokes aside, we're actually being dangerous through the middle - not just the flanks - which is a rare thing this season. Kone and Cristante absolutely bossing the midfield. The only ones I didn't like were Wesley with some questionable decision making and Pellegrini who's just slowing down so many promising attacks.
Around the 30th. The counter attack after Ndicka went down in their penalty area. Where Cristante and Wesley end up on the ground and Rensch got there fortunately.
Only seen the last 5 mins of the half but seem to have put decent pressure on them while Como are tactically well versed. Gasperini was roaring at Pellegrini 2 or 3 times in those last 5 mins lol
Intensity required is there at least. But can we keep it up and turn it into a lead? Whilst Como didn't offer too much in an attacking sense that half their threat of one good break or ball over the top is always there. Have wasted too many good attacking positions that half.
Proper match, that is a big 3 points. Intense to the end and also off the pitch. Got to respect what Cesc has built. Roma created a steady stream of half chances which is an improvement for them. Ndicka continues on his Aldair ark. Love when he tackles and then starts to carry the ball up the pitch, he just pushes past players. He has turned into an absolute tank. For a free transfer you really couldnt have expected this level of quality.
Complete domination. Cesc is starting to show worrying signs of being another woke manager these past 2 games.
He's crazy good and his abscence in the upcoming weeks will cost us points. Enjoy it while it lasts, he could become next summer's victim to FFP.
