Roma 1 v Napoli 1
Of course you saw it coming. Everyone did. After the initial joy of Fabiano Santacroce’s red card it was “shit, wait…this is Roma”. And it happened. Handing Roma a man advantage is a fate worse than handing them the red. Can’t play against 10. Just can’t. And to be honest, about [...]

Roma v Napoli
This is supposed to be an exciting, celebratory time, as after a rocky, confusing and sorrowful summer, we’re finally being gifted some Serie A football again – and in a proper derby at that. Problem is, the opener’s headline has swiftly gone from Luciano Spalletti’s Bella Calcio Returns to Roma Currently Seeking Warm/Lukewarm [...]

Jeremy Menez
Did you hear? No? Must’ve slipped through the cracks then. Anyway, here’s the news: Roma signed Jeremy Menez. Yes, it’s true. The next Zidane, Platini, Henry, Buddha, Gandhi, Jesus Christ of Nazareth, Howard the Duck and Papa Smurf is officially your newest giallorosso. Party time.

On formation….I think it’s safe to say that’s the first and last time we’ll see that first half formation this season. Borne out of necessity more than anything else – the bastardized combination of a packed hospital ward and JV players called up to fill spaces on the varsity until the new recruits come in [...]

We’ve heard this before, but….David Suazo is supposedly on the verge of a move to Rome. The Grand Imperial Poobah may be getting his long awaited wish. And frankly, so might I.

La Bestia
His Roman presentation will be tomorrow, but his true presentation will be Sunday evening at the San Siro, when he will most likely make his debut in the starting lineup in place of Jesus Totti. A Jesus Totti who will be on the bench, but will play at some point. Oh I’m woozy.

Bad Dates & A Mexican
Say you’ve decided to finally ask a lovely young lass out to an evening of splendor. No expense spared, no luxury too lavish. She is, after all, the catch of a lifetime. Beautiful, intelligent, sweet as a southerners charm – and never with a boyfriend. Some call her The Other Shoe, [...]
