Hah, I was saying the same thing to my Roma friend yesterday. What are they doing with Totti? People put so much hate onto Gervinho but every time I look up it's Gervinho who is running the full field and busting into the opponent's box. Where is the striker?? Totti can't keep up. I always see a winger making a good move with the ball into the box but there is no one central unless Radja busts his ass to finish it off.
Ljajic should be playing CF. He is better than Totti or Destro.
I thought they should have lined up Gervinho-Ljajic-Florenzi yesterday.
Same. Gervinho-Ljajic-Florenzi would be by far the best attack for that squad, with Ljajic playing a no 10 type forward, with freedom to drop deep and roam about a bit, as he is very talented on the ball.
Gervinho is a terrible finisher, but part of that is because he is constantly trying to finish chances where he is in full sprint to outrun the defender, and taking angled drives from the side of box, where if there were a forward with a decent bit of pace to support him, the right option would be to dink a pass into the centre of the box for a much easier finish.
Iturbe would have been my choice for a winger opposite Gervinho coming into the season, but he's been appalling and Florenzi has looked much better when he has played.
That sub yesterday, Ljajic off for Iturbe, when Ljajic had looked quite good all game to that point, was such a bonehead move by Garcia. What was he thinking. Ljajic has the creativity and dribbling to unlock a packed defense, which is what City had set up with the 1-0 lead at that point. Iturbe needs an open game, with space to run, and that just wasn't there. Terrible, terrible sub. And then Destro for Totti was just as stupid. It should have been Florenzi for Totti, and then Strootman for Pjanic, as Pjanic was appallingly bad yesterday, which seems to be often the case against big teams that can mark him out of the game.
When Roma plays Pjanic and Totti against big sides, they are both so easily marked out the game. It really limits Roma offensively.
I was so wrong about him.
