Yes please, or just sell him to Aston Villa which Eng media is reporting so. Its time to say goodbye to Cristante, he was better last year but we gotta move on, he is too slow for DDR football. Pisilli is showing some good sign and if we are unable to offload Bove we are too crowded at that area, seeing also we are linked with Leicester City midfielder Boubakary Soumaré. Pellegrini Le Fee Paredes (Baldanzi Pisilli Bove Soumaré)
Getting any player and getting rid of Cristante at the same time is such a huge win for our team, I hope it happens. Just. Give. Us. Anyone. And. Get. Him. Out. Of. Here.
Roma having doubts about Bryan Cristante’s future https://t.co/gYbb9tzcJQ— RomaPress (@ASRomaPress) August 7, 2024 I’ve been waiting to hear this for years
Sir Bryan has always fought for this shirt, although he maybe a meme amongst Romanisti I'll always be a fan of players with grinta.
I respect him a lot for his attitude, he also has had really good games for us (Milan europa league games last season spring to mind) but we need a different kind of midfielders and after 7 seasons it's time for a change
Sir Bryan has been crapped on far too much over the years by fans. He has been a soldier for the club for many years, hardly ever injured, playing multiple positions when needed. Without looking it up I would think he has probably played the most minutes at the club the last 3-4 years. He is not world class by any means but a solid professional starter Serie A midfielder. IMO his positives has outweighed the negative over the years. If DDR decides he doesn't fit his vision, so be it. I will thankful for his service to the club and wish him well.
Getting rid of 1 out of the 2 is a start. Sure theres respect for his effort but thats long been used up as a counter to his lack of quality. If you press him, its likely a turnover or he puts the next player in a difficult situation with a poor pass. Unless he was given the free roaming role as the third CM, then he is a lot of the time bordering on useless in the context of a team wanting to compete for top 4 or higher. The only way he could be the spare roaming mid is if you had a proper DM which the club dont have in Parades. Good club man, professional, motivator on and off the pitch a voice. Sure he has all these characteristics and its why managers and players respect him but there has to come a time when if you want the club to progress he needs to move on. Played in a very specific way like Gasperini did, we seen he could have had a much bigger career but it was never going to be further back in a crowded area on the pitch. Roma have used him wrong from the get go and for about 5 years now tried to make him into this cm he is not capable off being. Its been time to go for quite a while really.
Tammy being linked to Atalanta with Scamacca’s season over. Guy will probably turn into Shearer under Gasp. Would go after Pinamonti as a back up if Abraham leaves.
Simone Loria has been a fighter too, but football isn't a fight, it's a game of brain and foot skills, and Loria and Cristante lack both of those. Ever since he came to Roma, I've felt like the club is lessened because of it. No serious grand can have a Cristante in its starting XI and feel like a big club. If Pellegrini has been the embodiment of the new less talented generation of Italians in Roma, then Cristante has been the embodiment of a transfer policy so poor, you can't replace someone with Bryan's lack of ability for 7 freaking years. I have been fan of Roma since 2000. No matter what, for almost 20 years we've had one of the best, often times the best midfield in Serie A. To go from such giants to Cristante and Pellegrini is painful and yes - insulting. Roma with a crappy midfield is no Roma to me.
Dovbyk agent liked Di Marzio's latest Chiesa-Roma post. This is kind of market from a club when (and I don't even want to imagine) if team don't reach their targets what everyone have set in the summer, one of directors will surely leave. Ghisolfi for example and Souloukou could follow him. This is how it works but still don't want to think about it
Pubil and Chiesa have the same agent, Fali Ramadani, who is in Rome tomorrow Atalanta have allegedly made an offer for Pubil (20 mill with bonuses) and are now favourites to sign him, which means Ramadani might be in Rome on behalf of Chiesa… Pubil has been available all summer so I feel like if Roma wanted him they would’ve taken him by now, but they can’t before another right back leaves (Karsdorp)…. makes me think they are holding out for Bellanova
I feel like losing out on Pubill is a damn shame. And the fact it's Atalanta that's in for him.....doubly so.
I think another season with Celik wouldn’t be the worst. Now having Soule on that side will make a huge difference. Celik can likely stay more defensive now that he doesn’t have to cover that whole side anymore by himself. The big problem last season with that side was Dybala would drift centrally leaving Celik/Karsdorp to do it all. Karsdorp needs to go to Saudi Arabia though.
Fair point about Soule ahead of him in case they dont get the player they want in. It reduces his attacking responsibility and if hes expected to play as a more traditional right back defensively minded first, he can be a good starter.
Yes Dahl and Angelino can be more attacking and Celik can be the defensive one and they can go to a 3 back with him at CB in possession if needed.

I usually trust specific digital and print media outlets in some specific topics but this just hits differently. First it was Corriere dello Sport (I don't believe they are trusted in transfers but...) and then Il Tempo (defenitely trustier for me), they both wrote about secret target and surprise signing, while Romano wrote about Coman's availability on loan. Always liked and wanted him at Roma, injury-prone but top-class and if DDR really wants fast players bro he is the one. Either him or Chiesa and we are done in the attack.
The move has collapsed. https://romapress.net/roma-remain-vigilant-after-marc-pubill-fails-atalanta-medical/
Roma acting like a real pack of wolves again - always target the herd animal that's the most injured and can't limp away from you.
