Restart from a new project. Mid-caliber players to support youngsters. Lower the mound. Take a coach-trainer to teach football. Reset everything to remake a team from the Europa League area for the next few years. In short, Roma should undertake the Sassuolo model to try to become the new Atalanta in three or four years. Basically what we had already tried to do at the time with some coach who has passed through these shores, which ended with the usual failure. This is what is being trumpeted in the Roman media today just to attack Josè Mourinho. Roma are not a provincial team, even if they are on the pitch now.
Roma already has a three-year project which is another one, to raise the level of competitiveness in three years. The truth is that many in this team have already pulled the plug knowing that next year they will go elsewhere. As happens every year in February. They don’t run, they play with little concentration and a lot of superficiality. They do not follow. The new arrivals were also sucked into the chaos. Those two kids made them blush with shame. Volpato and Bove are proof that they follow the coach, they enter the field concentrated with another attitude, desire and determination. Twenty minutes of competitive fury in spite of those who earn a hundred times more, those who walk, go to the disco or are interested only in posting stories on social media.
It’s a championship that has been waiting for you, so many great lost chances wasted. You win the crazy game versus Juve, beat Genoa, and there you are in 4th place. But here we are, regardless of how it turns out, in June we will see the change. Mourinho does not have the magic wand but he came to try to do this, in the meantime to bring Roma “mentally” to the next level. Mou doesn’t have unlimited credit, he has three years. Most of the fans understood this. Taking the likes of Dionisi, De Zerbi or Italiano leads you to see maybe some good games, beat the odd top team, but then you always remain there in sixth, seventh place. Watched and seen before. The ambition is another, here there is a hunger to compete, perhaps lift a trophy, so if I really have to wait, I’ll do it with Josè Mourinho. Our only hope. Forza Roma.
