They also didn't have any pace up front, which meant it was virtually impossible for them to offer a threat on the break.

True.

So you lot are saying Totti got the tactics wrong despite being on the pitch?

Real Catenaccio involves marking, not just playing defensively.

Roma were not man-marking last night. They were just packing the midfield and playing deep.

 

[Bozi]

Cattanaccio was defensive,but it was also designed to be pacy on the break and should provide lightening counter attacking football. people nowadays confuse all-out defense with the proper art od Cattenaccio


and Totti is thick as shit Andy

Menez and Vucunic were injured last night.

Menez came on in the second half.

And if you don't have pace up front, you need to make a bigger effort to get the team playing higher up the pitch, otherwise you won't be able to offer an attacking threat.

 

[Nicholas]

Really?

I just knew he was injured. However I agree that Borriello and Totti = Disaster

Friday 17 September, 2010​

[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,Geneva,Swiss,SunSans-Regular]Marcello Lippi and Leonardo are both being linked with the Roma job this morning after Claudio Ranieri's falling out with Francesco Totti.

Sections of the Italian media don't believe Ranieri will survive after Roma's captain launching a stinging attack on his catenaccio-like tactics.

Roma have started the season poorly, conceding seven goals in their last two games, which have both ended in heavy defeats.

Ranieri's contract has yet to be renewed and sacking him would not be that expensive, although given the uncertainty at board level at the moment that would be an unpalatable option.

However, this morning both Lippi and Leonardo are being talked about as possible replacements.

The Roman Press understands Ranieri will be given four games to turn it around, which come against Bologna, Brescia, Inter and Cluj. [/FONT]

Ranieri ending up with problems in Roma was bound to happen.

 

[IrishZebra]

We should have grabbed Spaletti when we had the chance.

 

[Quetzalcoatl]

Thank goodness we didn't.

 

[Byrone]

After Ranieri gets sacked at Roma.

Secco: I take it back, we made the right decision in firing Ranieri.

 

[IrishZebra]

Thank goodness we didn't.

Attractive football with mediocre players with a fair degree of success doesn't appeal to you right now?

 

[Byrone]

Should we really set the bar that low? Are we Genoa or Sampdoria now?
