Five new starters? We saw how did that cope against Torino and now we are committing the same mistake against an even stronger opponent and away from home.

Its not a mistake. We have a Coppa final wednesday, which are more important. Max is rotating the squad as he should.

We can lose and still win the scudetto. So I'm fine with rotating (we do not have a choice for CMs really), tho perhaps one of Sandro or Alves should play with Dybala rested, just for an extra creative edge.


But unless we lose all 3 remaining games in league, this scudetto is done, so rotating for the important coppa final is very much understandable.

Yes but Roma still think they can win the scudetto and our 11 is full of players who can troll them into red cards. No sweat.

Resting Dybala, Chiellini, Alex Sandro, Dani Alves and having to do without the unfit Marchisio looks like a bridge too far as far as I'm concerned.

Still, that said, I hope to be proved wrong for expecting the worst.

There is still plenty of pace and creativity in that Roma starting XI.

Our defence/midfield may well be over-yellowed in the 1st 45 minutes.

Ok taking the L on this, by far the highest risk-lowest reward game left of the season. Impacts our treble the least, it's just before the coppa and it's obviously the hardest of our remaining games.

However, fuck those cunts let's 3-0 them with our B team.

4-2-3-1 with Pjanic in advanced role I'm guessing.
Nope, defenitely not this, you know why? Because for Allegri Sturaro cant play CM/DM in his formation, not in control enough. Plus Pjanic is needed deeper to organise, tho he may have more free roaming role in this 4-3-3 as it looks.

I dont think Max will play Stu in a holding role,but lets see.
It might be on of those Max inventions, were one still dont know what formation we played after the game.
Shut it. I'm right. End of discussion :D
