Venerdi Vitriol ! (and some Mercato musings)

By: Marco | Comments 30 Comments

 The Roman Derby was Lazio’s most important game of the season. Francesco Totti even laid flowers in front of the Curva Nord, purely because he’s classy. Add to that the fact that Lazio’s European ambitions ended a long time ago and the death of Gabriele Sandri and you have all the ingredients necessary for a […]

Grazie Mister, Grazie Ludovic, Grazie Mirko…Grazie Roma

Roma 2 - Milan 1
Putting the summer of ‘06 aside, that was the best game I have seen in many years. I laughed, I cried, I smiled, I cowered, I bit my fingers off, I yelled too loudly in enclosed spaces, I rocked back and forth like Leo Mazzone for 90+ minutes, and I blacked […]

Luciano Spalletti knows about Turnover ?!?

By: Marco | Comments 222 Comments

This will be short and sweet (ok maybe not sweet, but definitely short) seeing how the game starts in about 27 minutes as of…now.

Roma start their crucial month of March with a game in Parma, If you don’t believe me ask Francesco! You’d think that after an emotionally charged encounter with Inter we’d have at […]

Inter – Roma, Unconditional Calcio Love

By: Marco | Comments 305 Comments

38 games a season and it all comes down to this one!
Inter - Roma

La Liga’s big clashes manage to catch my eye but I can’t seem to get excited about the Ping Pong-ish style of The Premiership. (And don’t get me started on the damn USL league!) I, for one, love Calcio unconditionally. Unfortunately, […]

Oprah presents ; The Color Purple in Rome

By: Marco | Comments 286 Comments

Roma – Fiorentina

That’s right; the color purple is coming to town and is bringing Adrian Mutu along. Oprah assures us that this encounter will be nothing less than ”Joyful and soaring!” Now that’s what I call over-hyping the game!
Honestly, this is a must win game. Irrationnaly, I’m an eternal enthusiast and totally think Roma […]

We’re now 11 point away from Argentina, Fark!

What a crappy day in football. Breakfast in front of an Inter win (to the hands of Livorno, di piu !) Followed by an afternoon with DP and ADP. Awful, just plain woeful!I’d especially like to thank Pavel Nedved for living up to his […]

You ain’t goin’ nowhere Aqui !
Black, Blue and Aquilani.
I’ll deal with Aquilani situation. It’s a little too e Sensitive a subject for Chris to tackle. I mean it would be like a surgeon operating on his own kid! Your judgement can be too impaired if you’re too emotionally involved. We don’t want Chris to say […]

By: Marco | Comments 111 Comments

Finally, 3 points against a relegation battler! It wasn’t a convincing one, but 3 points is 3 points
Roma started off the game with a 3 Right Back 4 man defence. Panucci* was partnering Mexes in the middle, […]
