I don't want us to be like Roma, as we are obviously the better team. This goes without saying.
I just want us to build a dominating midfield and I want us to reinvigorate our defence and fullbacks. A first step would be to acquire a new Vidal type of player for the midfield. I'd also love to see us sign a few hard as granite players for our defence, who can replace our aging backline.
We're a great, great team, but I feel that we are too soft in certain areas. A bit of grinta is certainly lacking, in my opinion.

Honestly the main problem with this team is the lack of warriors. Our whole midfield is filled with pussies and the three non pussy mids are always on the bench. Dybala is a pussy. Higuain isn’. Costa and Sandro aren’t pussies but they aren’t lolzillians. Mandzukic isn’t the same monster as last year. Only bastard we have on the team is Licht and he’s benched for lolsciglio.
My solution:
Get rid of the starting mid and get players with grinta.

Roma probably should have got something from the first leg, and absolutely battered Barca tonight. Did not give them a chance to breathe. There were numerous stretches in the match where Barca was just kicking the ball back to Roma at their halfway line. One of the best Champions League performances by an Italian team in the last decade.
To be fair to Roma though, if you look at their squad, they have a very, very solid lineup, and good depth across the squad. They're just an inconsistent team at times, they were right in the title race with us and Napoli until they went through a stretch of 7 winless or something like that. They'll want to draw Liverpool in the Semi's unless Sevilla somehow make it past Bayern. Think Roma's physicality and willingness to concede possession would stifle Liverpool, and they could easy overwhelm that mid-field.

Street allegri!
