Rome Derby

[Billy Whizz]

On now on BT Sport, Lazio have just gone 2-0 up. Noticed that they have a 5th and 6th official behind both goals. Thought this was just a UEFA competition thing. Is this normal practice in Serie A

My mates are at the game. Their saying the Atmosphere is tremendous

Roma every time for me. We all know what the Lazio stand for.

Roma fans are not exactly Angels themselves.

just turned over to watch totti getting scoring his 2nd to make it 2-2, runs over the hoardings to the fans(not sure if he got booked for it), runs to one of the coaches and gets a mobile phone, then types a text along with a 'selfie' to someone, imagine someone doing that in scottish football the compliance officer would be kept busy

True, but the lesser of two evils. Also, Roma have Totti, the ageless God of Football.

Totti, the ageless God of Football.

Lot of folk will disagree, but IMO, Totti is one of the greatest football players who has ever lived and played the game.

I'm a Fiorentina fan having lived in Florence for a wee while around 10 years ago, last game I went to was against Roma (that particular season they really were struggling too), they beat us 2-1 and everything went through Totti, he didn't score but he made both their goals, his touch, movement, vision and range of passing (the stats showed he had something like a 94% accuracy that day) was just sublime, he went off to a standing ovation from the entire stadium. I've never seen a player link a midfield to the attack as well as he does and remain a constant goal threat himself, ever. People may say Steven Gerrard but IMO he doesn't come close to Totti.

It's the fact he's still pulling the strings brilliantly, into his late 30's, that amazes me. The only comparable I can think of in an attacking position at that age, with that much influence at the top level is probably Ryan Giggs.

No pace but all technique, ability and vision, a throwback to the old "number 10" days and strictly speaking has no right to be so damn good at his age, in the modern game. A joy to watch.

Plus he scored one of my favourite ever goals, screamer!

Some of his celebrations are legendary, he comandeered a pitch side camera once and filmed the Roma fans going mental after one of his goals (might've been in a derby against Lazio?). Another one he "gave birth" to a football when his missus was pregnant. My favourite one was when he scored his first goal of the season a while back, he grabbed the corner flag, pretended to be bouncing around in zero g, fired the flag into the pitch and lifted his shirt to reveal the message "Totti has landed".

Love it!

Had the privilege of seeing Totti at the Etihad earlier this season - fabulous player!
