True, they look much solid than us in the back. but trust me and mark my words, once we do the opening score (the 1st goal they concede this season) they'll break down.
agreed on that point, but they will attack us like there is no tomorrow if we score first. The question is do we have the defense to hold the romans ? we will know on the weekend if we can hold off one of the best attacking teams in Europe

I haven't watched alot of Roma this season yet, but their numbers speak for themselves, very solid and creative team.
I am really worried because we are missing alot of players. We don't haev any player to play on the right, where Mancini plays !!!!! He will attack from that side like there is no tomorrow.. Birindelli can't do the job.
Never the less, I do trust our players especially the senior ones. They have the talent and experience to help the team out. Its really a pitty we won't see Maoro..
Our key factor on Sunday's match is Roma's fitness after the CL. If they are abit tired we might be able to create more and hold on to the match well. if they are not, well,, lets hope Buffon and Del Piero have the best of matches..

I am standing by my team... Forza Juve :)

It will be a tough game against a tough team, in a tough moment,
time for our champion heart to take a stand and make the difference,
i agree with Rab that is one of the most important games of the season
(and i hope, boom TV will air it live)
Hopefully they will.

But Rab makes a valid point here, I don't see it really as blind optimism. It is a thought based on what we actually have.
We'll have to disagree then.

From where I'm siting Roma have the better players at the moment and they are playing as more of a team than we are.

For us to get anything either we must play to our best or they must be poor.

i'm a big fan of the 442 and i see it as the most balanced formation if we have all our starting 11.

But after 4 games i dont think its the best and considering how Roma play i would like to see the 433 or 451 formation

good thing for us is that Brazzo is back and Grygera should make the bench at least

--------------------------------Gigi----------------------------

------Brazzo-----------andrade-----cristicio---------chiellini-

-----------------------Tiago-----------Zanetti------------------

------------------------------Neddy------------------------------

--------Iaquinta----------------------------------------Alex-----

-------------------------------Trezi-------------------------------

I know we will lose a lot of Alex's effectivenes but we will need the extra players in the midfield as we don't the best defense or the best cover.

IF we would play with the 442 then starting palladino on the right is a must

I'd go for they must be poor, it's less effort :D

with no cammo i too prefer 4-3-3 , so that brazzo and cheillini can move up the field more often. however imo it should be either ale or trez with neddy and iaquinta playing similar roles left and right respectively.

:tup: lets hope the tinkerman is considering it

so you're suggesting that both tiago and almiron start in the middle?
i wouldn't mind that but i would like to see Trezi upfront, hes our best finisher and i would like to see him out there.

another thing is that i hope nocerino makes the bench cause if hes not there, and we need to close the game we don't another DM

Isnt that so offensive? It will be great for a home game against a mid-table team, except for Iaquinta, he's given too many chances, and he wasnt useful

If Almiron and Iaq dont play well, give other players a chance, Tiago and Palla

That formation looks VERY offensive to me.

Buffon
Biri - Andrade - Legro - Chiellini
Sali - Tiago - Zanetti
Del Piero - Trezeguet - Nedved

that would be mine so far
