    I should add a fit Dybala can provide answers in these games. But here we are again, critical stretch of the season and he's injured.

    Basically this is ultimately all adding up to no top 4 finish again. I'd bet my house on it.

    Let's focus on EL. Our only way to CL.

    At this point I think Champions league becomes super unlikely. You can’t drop points to Juve and Napoli from winning positions. I don’t even think we can avoid any of the cups because bologna are so far behind. Fcuking repeat the same thing over and over.

    If the game is truly going this way you might as well go and sign the black Italian RB from Brentford. His throw ins are basically nfl quarterback throws.

    Knew it was a definite handball....I assumed VAR didnt intervene cause it was close but outside the box. That still shows it was very very close and probably inside....hhmm.

    To go along with our injuries to attacking players we are now conceding more goals. Not looking like the best defense in Europe anymore. By the way, has Zaragoza already been deemed a bust?

    They showed a replay shortly after this of the ball bouncing of his side on to his arm, it'd be extremely harsh on Genoa for it to be called a handball. Relying on calls like that speaks of how Roma were simply not good enough today. I understand rotating the team with Bologna and Como coming up but these are the games we can't afford not to win with our results from direct rivals.

    Unfortunately here we are again - 6 weeks ago I feared we'd be in the same dilemma we've been in the last four seasons. EL or top 4 for CL? We have to win at Como to keep the embers of top 4 going, unfortunately going to Bologna is going to stretch this team if not crash it.

    A lot of money dropped on Vaz who is a good youngster but extremely raw. Unless something crazy clicks with him from what I have seen, he was not the right signing for right now. Strange timing on that one given where Roma are in the table and what they needed. Experience and quality now, not talent and potential. Once again there seems to be confusion in the clubs direction between what the manager wants and the sporting director.

    As I was saying, 45 minutes of actual play on the pitch in a 97 minute game. Eh but Sal doesnt know what he's talking about. Shameful stuff from DDR.

    lol Sal nobody said you dont know what you're talking about but you miss the point and are way of the mark on DDR here. He has played good football in games they can attempt to do so, the goals and scorelines since he has taken over testify this and he played the dark arts in this in order to best control the outcome. I am sure learning from the 2 extremly harsh defeats in a row against Lazio and Napoli, deep extra time pens. DDR has taken a relegation team into midtable. That is good coaching instead of going out and giving Roma an easy time, he works for Genoa now. How can you lose respect when hes proving himself to be an excellent coach?
