Nice posts Nazizhen.
I too feared Roma, but that was before they lost Capello. He was the one who built the team, who disoverd Totti, and made players like Emerson, Samuel and Cassano world class. Without him, Roma are nothing. They may still have Totti and Cassano but once the pressure is on, you will see them fall. Hiring Prandelli was a great move, but I doubt he will be able to take over from Capello with maintaining the club status and reputation and above all winning the title. Bringing in players like Ferrari, Chivu and Gilardino would obviously be very good for the team, but nothing has still been finalised so let's wait and see. I believe the loss of Samuel will ruin their defence, while the sale of Emerson would mean serious problems in midfield. You can expect Roma to battle for the scudetto, to impress with nice play and getting some good results, but don't expect them to be near as strong as they have been under Capello.
