Derby Squads

By: chris | March 19th, 2008

negro.jpg(Paolo Negro just about sums up all things Lazyo right there, doesn’t he?)

Roma:

ANTUNES Gabriel
AQUILANI Alberto
BERTAGNOLI J.Sergio
BRIGHI Matteo
CASSETTI Marco
CICINHO
CURCI Gianluca
DE ROSSI Daniele
DONI
ESPOSITO Mauro
FERRARI Matteo
GIULY Ludovic
JUAN
MANCINI Alessandro
MEXES Philippe
PANUCCI Christian
PERROTTA Simone
PIZARRO David
TADDEI Rodrigo
TONETTO Max
TOTTI Francesco
VUCINIC Mirko
ZOTTI Carlo

Lazio:

I won’t lie, I don’t pay any attention to Lazio whatsoever. They’re a shite team with shite players. Since I avoid them at all costs, I gather the same can be said for many of the Giallorossi faithful - so here’s a little breakdown of their squad.

Manuel Ballotta:
I’ve seen fewer howlers and better keepers at the Blind Olympics.
Valon Behrami: Dude can flatulate balloon animals at this point.
Luciano Zauri: A little birdie told me he was the one who did in Jon Benet Ramsey, feel free to spread that around liberally.
David Rozenhal: Just opening up to this whole Gaby Mudingayi thing.
Lorenzo De Silvestri: The voluntary meat in an ovine sandwich.
Stefan Radu: Lazio fans are bemoaning the potential absence of a guy who, at one point, bled for the Giallorossi from Romania. They can’t even get their own fans.
Sebastiano Siviglia: Poofter.
Cribari: Misconception is that he hurt his face, which was the reason for the girly painted mask. Wrong. Fact: it was cosmetic.
Christian Manfredini: You know the homeless guy you see on the street corner who asks you for money to eat, but yo know he’s going to use it for booze? That’s him, but he plays for Lazio. (Which I suppose is on par with being homeless.)
Cristian Ledesma: Just biding his time until he moves to Inter - trading one shitty blue for a darker, shittier version.
Gaby Mudingayi: Nuff said.
Ousmane Dabo:
The Human Ashtray - the only good thing Joey Barton has ever done.
Mourad Meghni: “I like pistacchio ice cream, long walks on the beach, nude sunbathing and gerbils….concurrently.”
Massimo Mutarelli: God, he’s not even worth mentioning.
Stefano Mauri: Rumor has it he runs an underground prostitution ring involving underaged Asian boys. Feel free to spread that.
Tommaso Rocchi: Kill yourself.
Rolando Bianchi: Well….you know. Also, watch him running down the pitch today, he looks like Pamela Anderson in the opening credits of Baywatch.
Fabio Vignaroli: Striker. Take a look at this strike rate. Sounds about right for a Lazie.
Goran Pandev: “I just gave Rolando Bianchi the motorboat.”

I’m sure I forgot some, chances are everybody else has also.

Roman XI:

Doni;
Panucci, Mexes, Juan, Tonetto;
DDR, Aquilani;
Taddei, Perrotta, Mancini;
Totti.

About right, perhaps.

* - This thing’s coming off in segments today.

    I agree with some of the other fans. Look at what Vucinic has done off the bench. Why change things now.

    I wanted to see Cicinho starting just for him to experience a derby from the start… after this match we need to start rotating

    Yeah I am happy to see Ludovicious (the name I like the best for our four foot friend) and Mirko coming off the bench, I’d love to see them plop in a few just to show Lazie that our bench is what their starters aspire to be compared to. I agree Gabriella, I really like the dynamic Cicinho introduces to our squad, but I’m not sure he is chugging the giallorosso kool-aid at the rate I would like. A start to finish derby might just do that.

    Doni
    Cicinho - Mexes - Juan - Cassetti
    Aquilani - De Rossi
    Taddei - Perrotta - Mancini
    Totti

    That is the starting line up as per goal.com
    I’m surprised to see Cassetti since he just came back from injury, and since Tonetto has been on great form

    Tonetto ran a ton on Saturday, I’m not completely shocked, if that lineup is true.

    If PIZARRO plays like he did against MILAN, shit ill take it. He was distributing the ball alla PIRLO from left to right, and not just PULLING THE OL TRIGGER!! Lets see what he can DO!!

    Also, CICI will not be starting over OMR. Two reasons (1) IT IS A DERBY (2) OMR played like an animal against MILAN and (3)OMR runs the team!!

    I don’t mind Cici missing out on a blood and guts derby. He was DEAD at the end v Milan, nearly threw up on the touchline when Mirko scored and didn’t run to celebrate.
