I can't remember how many times we have said, terrible performance with a great result. We all saw how in the weekend with that same performance how we got ourselves handled by Napoli. This is exactly why many people still think that the race for the league title is still on. When luck does not go your way the result will not come with such a pathetic performance. The subs gave us a slight advantage, upped the game for something like 5 to 10 minutes but it was not enough, it only took a clumsy moment from the Lyon defenders that we took this great advantage, it was not due to the energy that the subs have added to the game. To be honest, I don't think anything will change, after every match I hope and wish we would approach games in a different fashion, like we did during Conte's first season and then I get disappointed again.

Dont know about it
I expect us to demolish Lyon at home.. so we would go through regardless
BTW my country`s commentators know nothing about football!
They talked about our lead being 14 and now 8 while the truth is Roma always had one game in hand so the 14 wasnt really a 14 it was more like 11
It is just normal that another top italian team get more points than us in 1 week out of 38... after all we cant win all 38 games...

A predictably terrible performance but fantastic result.
But I can't see us making the final of this competition if we play like this against teams like Benfica or Porto. We will get found out. Too slow, predictable and sterile.
The one positive that came out of this game is the performances of Giovinco and Vucinic. They looked lively and at least tried to make things happen.
Hopefully we finish the job next in Turin and see a much improved performance.

Just caught the second half but from what I could tell, vucinic and especially gio are players we need to make more of use of when closing this season. Both very hungry and both can give the team that attacking spark we've been missing recently.
As for grinding out results. I think people should remember the days when just winning seemed like the hardest thing in the world. That was almost 3 years ago. Yes, we have room for improvement but I'm very proud of this team for consistently grinding out crucial results.
