De Rossi

[Any1aBlue]

I'm an Italian supporter of Napoli. I may help you to understand this situation about De Rossi.
First of all, he's a good player. Probably the best Italian midfielder after Prilo (but i may admit the others aren't so good...). In Roma he's called "Capitan Futuro", you may understand it's meaning, the captain of tomorrow, since today the captain is Francesco Totti. De Rossi is from Roma, he's a supporter of that hateful team, and he'd love to play there as long as he can. But there's a problem. The owner of Roma is now the American De Benedetto, but it looks like still Unicredit, a bank, has an important role in the society. Actually, Roma is not a rich club, and it can't give to De Rossi (which i remind you, is going to be 29 this year) all the money that, according to media, Real Madrid and City could. So those are the scenarios: Roma gives a lot of money to De Rossi, less then Real or City, but still a lot, and he stays in Roma; Roma can't give enough money to De Rossi and will try to sell him this year or he will go for free to Real or City. I don't know if you're really interested in him, but media always say Real, City and PSG because those are the clubs that can buy.
I hope i helped you somehow.


PS it doesn't mind if he played or not against Fiorentina in Coppa Italia. In this competition usually the greatest player don't play till the very end.

Thanks for this insight, much appreciated!!

Good luck in the Champions League.. I really hope you beat Chelsea!!

What ??????!!!!! Whilst I can understand not supporting the scum against anyone at all - Chelsea are an English side (SORT OF) and success for them, or any English League side brings rewards for us all and increases all our credibility when trying to lure foreign talent to our league.
I will shout my support for Chelsea or Arsenal in the CL because im; English, adult and not entirely mindless........................

Why is it mindless to support against the English sides they all did it to us this year, in fact they have been bad mouthing us for over three years so they can all do one!

I'd never root for one of our league competitiors to beat a foreign team. You can get diplomatic with the national team, but if Chelsea were playing Barca or Real I'd hope for the Spaniards to smash them.

What ??????!!!!! Chelsea ended our unbeaten run, i don't like their fans and don't like them as a club!! I want Cavani, Lavezzi and Hamsik to run them riot!!

The way Napoli plays their football, the spirit and mentality the show makes them hard not to like in my book. But even if they were as boring to watch as a Bergman movie, I'd still root for them over Chelsea any day of the week. Never liked them, never will.

Bang on!

I think the guy saying he would support English teams against foriegn teams is just a xenophobe despite our entire squad have over 75% International players.

 

[ONTHERUNWITHTHAKSIN]

Would usually agree with the role of supporting all english clubs in Europe but on this occassion i can't help but shout for Napoli after what that prick cole said in our recent defeat.


As for di rossi then can't see him moving which is a shame
