Videos Of The Day: Top 10 Goals Of 06-07

By: chris | December 14th, 2007

Yeah, it’s late, whatever. I’m going to rank my ten favorite goals of last year, in all competitions, for Roma. (We’ll do the tops of the first half during the winter break.)

#10 - Simone v Parma

All about the quick-hitting build up leading to the easy sitter for Simone. Pure Roman attacking.




#9 - Phantastic Philou v Milan

Nothing like a cheeky half-laser, half-slurve from a centreback.


#8 - DDR v Fiorentina

Picture perfect form on the long range missile. I miss these.



#7 - Simone v Catania

Perrotta’s one man show through, over and around the entire Catania defense.


#6 - Totti v Palermo

Totti and his killer dead ball skills. What a fricken swerve.


#5 - DDR v ManYoo

I know I know, but come on, it was a fantastic goal.


#4 Taddei v Cagliari

Bike it, baby.

* - In watching every single goal from last year, you know who was probably the most present creative playmaking force besides Totti? Rodrigo. The guy is indispensable.


#3 - Max, Alberto, Mancini & Totti v Milan

The Totti header against Milan. Great anticipation by Max to spike the ball to King Alberto, the rabona to Mancini and then the perfect cross to Totti’s head. True team effort and beautiful workup. Vintage Roma. Love everything about it. I’d put it higher, but…


#2 - The Stepovers.

Ooh la la.

#1 - Totti v Sampdoria

When you’ve just scored the 4th goal of a game which was already in the bag and the fans for the home team give you a standing ovation, you’ve done something pretty fucking special. Hands down. And I love Spalletti’s delayed reaction like he didn’t realize what just happened.

    Somehow, I’m not surprised in the least. It seems like a bad joke, but good lord…

    The way I see it, this could be a very positive thing.

    Maybe they’ll find a highly qualified clinic which can actually get Alberto healthy for good.

    Big time silver lining here.

    Watch Totti’s right hand during the goal celebration on #10. I’m speechless.

    ‘Zo, with the lack of qualified medics in Rome, Totti was just trying to make sure the little man didn’t fall and break his head.

    No, it was more than that. Looked more like he propping Little David up at first and then giving him a colonoscopy. I guess it still comes back to the lack of proper medics in Rome.

    If you look through Totti’s old goals you’ll see that he had the exact same goal that he had against Samp before. No joke it was the exact same goal, same position, same type of pass. It’s weird that no one mentioned that goal before.

    Remember when Roma won the Coppa last year and there was this picture of Totti grabbing Mexes’ crotch when lifting the cup..

    Aquilani broke a kid’s arm indeed. After that the kid was invited to the Italian training camp, got a signed Aquilani jersey and was his guest when Italy played against Portugal.

    well there arent many players with injuries all of a sudden. Soon we will be back to a full squad. I cannot wait! I am very positive that we will be only 1 or 2 points behind Inter when the winter break comes

    Jesus christ…can’t we give this guy some freakin’ run?

    “Roma, Cicinho vuole andare via nonostante le smentite”

    Accolto come una star, il terzino brasiliano è già in rotta con la società giallorossa. Tra lui e Spalletti non è scattata la scintilla. Cicinho non si trova bene a Roma e vorrebbe essere ceduto già alla riapertura del mercato di Gennaio, nonostante le dichiarazioni di rito: “Resto qui. Voglio tornare il vero Cicinho con la maglia giallorossa”. Per il momento mancano le offerte. Possibile una sua partenza a Giugno: lo vogliono diversi club brasiliani.

    With Totti being out and probably Perrotta on the bench, Gazzetta has Cicinho as the starting RAM.

    Ok, now Gazzetta switched their projected lineups to include Perrotta in the middle and Giuly on the wing with no Cicinho.

    Bashar, that was the one I couldn’t remember which team it was against and by the time I got to the end of the list I was so exhausted I just put the Simone goal at 10. It should have been on here.
