Just booked a week's holiday at Rome with a plan to go see Roma-Lecce. Had no idea they are selling out against minnows now too so had to pay a lot more than I thought for tickets through Viagogo, Mourinho fewer is real. At least the seats should be really good.

Dunno when you're there but Frosinone at home to SPAL on the Saturday too in Serie B if like me you're a saddo. Train is about an hour from Roma Termini and the ground is right near the station. One of the more English style stadia in Italy.

Reviving this thread: Just leaving Stadico Olimpico after Derby Della Capitale, highly disappointed as someone that came hoping to see Roma win. Atmosphere was incredible, of course, game generally was horrendous. Ibanez gifted Lazio the goal, they had no desire to pursue more and Roma created almost nothing.

 

The decline of Tammy Abraham this season has been shocking. In his current form, the boy is a liability. All-around play is not as good as it previously was and missing countless easy chances every match. Roma in general are held back by their attack, Dybala is the only reliable player. They will struggle to get top four without sorting it out.

Milan’s, Juve and Roma all distracted by Euro semi’s whilst trying to qualify for next seasons CL and having fairly weak squads. You’re bouncing if you’re fascist Roman.

As said in the match thread, I don't think any of the Serie A sides in Europe have looked especially impressive.

 

The CL final will be the most one-sided in years imo. Either of the Milan sides will be rolled over fairly easily by Real or City

Good article. It does have to be said European leagues have a point about how financially damaging to turn the runaway success of the premier League is. No doubt some is sour grapes but some is desperation to be competitive in European competition. Great to see Italy despite all this represented so well in late champions League but it is a problem. Equally part of the success of premier League is because how easy it has become for premier League to wrestle away exciting talent. Still all would be better if all sides weren't grasping egotistical idiots loading debts onto their clubs

Just listened to a report on Napoli’s first title in 30 years. A season that was meant to be one of transition but their high intensity brand of football and their clever signings have led to early success. A city that is dominated by its football obsession. 
 

Sound familiar? We can only hope…
