http://roma.theoffside.com/ - News from AS Roma Italian football team
I love videos like this – the singular focus on one player and his movements throughout the match (similar to Zidane: A 21st Century Portrait ). This one goes back to the Stamford Bridge trip last year, focusing on that Totti character and the vision which leaves one absolutely ...

Francesco Totti
Totti 3 – Bari 1
I do not envy Roman journalists in the least. One could offer me the gig with world peace as compensation and I would swiftly decline despite the desperate pleas of humanity. How could one possibly spend ten years fumbling through thesauri looking for the words ...

Haven’t the slightest why I must subject everyone to this video once a year. But in viewing it yet again, I’ve realized something:
Trophies are nice, but I don’t want to scream my lungs out – I want my breath taken away. I don’t want to bear witness to arms held ...

A much championed fight in the press. A crippled Roma lying wounded; a captain in the stands and another at the hospital by the half; an impromptu leader on one leg; a game with more dodgy fouls than rollerderby. And yet….
Two points lost, not one point gained.
Mirko, ...

Inter v Roma
Best news you’ll hear up until the game: they aren’t supposed to win.
Which really makes it fun, eh? Inter are in good form; Roma are not. Inter have a fully fit squad; Roma do not. Inter are at home; Roma are only sorta at home. Classic nothing to lose game. ...

Struggled forever finding any words to sum up this victory. Not talking about le mot juste – just le mot . And then it came from the strangest place. The Dark Knight happens to be on Home Box Office at the moment, and I’m finding it highly appropriate as Harvey ...

Udinese 2 – Roma 1
The majority of the blame lies not on the stuttering, misfiring and nonfiring Mirko, but Rodrigo Taddei. How many promising Roman attacks were undone by David Pizarro Syndrome (that of laying the ball exquisitely onto the foot of an opposing player) in the ...
