Roma - On course for a record start to a Serie A season

by NewCorkSeth » 28 Oct 2013 19:30

Roma sold two of their best players and have somehow gotten much, much better by replacing them with Gervinho.. 9 wins in a row and they seem to be operating with quite a small squad! Anyone been watching their games?

They already broke the record yesterday

Only conceded 1 goal so far too

next 4 games are:

Home to bottom of the table Chievo
Away to 12th place Torino
home to 2nd bottom Sassuolo
Home to 13th place Cagliari

so chance to continue it too

21 June 2013 FW Giammario Piscitella Genoa €1,500,000

I was trying to be funny.. To be fair Strootman, Pjanic and De Rossi is one hell of a midfield!

I havent heard of any of those fellas apart from Stroot, Gervinho, Maicon and Destro. And that last one might be from G.I. Joe... Any hipsters on here able to tell us who the duck these other players are?
