Founded by a merger in 1927, Roma have participated at the top-tier of Italian football for all of their existence apart from one season. For their 56th season in a row, Roma are competing in Serie A for 2007–08. Roma have won Serie A three times, first in 1941–42 then again in 1982–83 and 2000–01. As well as winning eight Coppa Italia trophies; on the European stage Roma won an Inter-Cities Fairs Cup in 1960–61, but have had come close to success finishing as runners-up in the European Cup in 1983–84 and the UEFA Cup in 1990–91.

asromatom Posted October 15, 2007 Author Share Posted October 15, 2007 I played without signing anyone, except Capel on loan, but only really to see what he was like, to see how the squad would cope and was pleasantly surprised. The team is much stronger despite the departure of Chivu, but still a bit lacking. Juan and Mexes are a beast of a pairing. I also play Curci in goal just because I don't trust Doni and his howlers. Esposito is a super sub often coming on and scoring and very versatile and useful. Antunes was also a surprise, his stats starting of poor but soon picked up and got signed for 500k bargain for the way he currently looks. Finished the demo top of the league scoring many goals but will need to strengthen the defence as the squad wouldn't cope with a injury crisis.

asromatom Posted November 3, 2007 Author Share Posted November 3, 2007 How's every one's games going? Mine 1st season was exceptional, mainly due to Totti and Vucinic, managed a clean sweep with only a few investments. Amelia came in just before the season started as he was listed, managed to get him for £5mill, out went Doni in Jan for £8mill. Brought in Menez and Jovetic for around £15mill combined. Also samba came in for only 500K which is a bargin for a defender so good. Esposito was my supersub often killing off teams in the last 10mins. Mancini however left in the summer as he wanted a new challenge, managed to get £30mill for him and replaced with Quaresma, who so far has been in amazing form. At the back brought in Zapata, who is beginning to look like a rock in the 2nd season. Only place which is possibly weak could be upfront as Totti is ageing and if Vucinic gets injured could be fatal, looking to bring in either Aguero or Vela.

JacketB Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 Hi, i am looking to start a new game with Roma. I will be keeping the same 4-2-3-1 formation. On first inspection the team looks a bit weak in defence and seems to be lacking enough quality forwards. I want to keep the team as italian as possible. Can you reccomend any players, The main positions I want players for are DR, DL and ST/FC. I was thinking Zaccardo for cover at DR and DC, who else? Thanks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir frosinone Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 Pasqual from Fiorentina for dl could co_own him for cheap Mattia Cassini from Palermo for dr/dl next Zambrotta again can be co_owned for cheap Andrea Barzagli enough said Amauri he is more a less italin in the game bout 9 million Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JacketB Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 thanks, i am in the process of trying to sign them, though im not sure if i will get amauri, who else is there, is pazzini any good? also i would like another cm/amc, how much could i buy montolivo for or dessena or cignarini(sp)? from parma.

TheFuzzyOne Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 this is mental but i'm tottenham in 4th season and roma offered me the job with a 65 million POUNDS transfer budget!!! They are the fourth richest club in the world, so that is surprising. Anyway they were 5th in the Serie A, i was 1st.Naturally, I declined. But that's a whole lot of moolah.

zychan1 Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 Am looking to start a Roma game with the 8.0.2 patch. Any idea who should I bring in? The transfer budget is really small though, only 4.82mil pounds to be the Serie A winner... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JacketB Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 I gave up with my previous Roma game and started with liverpool but I want to start again with Roma now. I am using patch 8.02 and I have started the game without any transfer funds allowed at the start, so I am planning for January and the summer transfer windows. I am using a 4-2-3-1 formation. The line up when all players are fit will be: ...........Doni.............. Cicinho..Mexes..Juan..Tonetto .....Aquilani..De Rossi...... Taddei....Perrotta....Mancini ............Totti............ There are a few areas that seem to be a weak, mainly left back and striker. The squad also seems to lack depth. I would like to keep the squad as Italian as possible as Roma do in real life. For LB I was thinking of Pasqual or Rubin For ST I was thinking of Pazzini or Borriello if he is any good in the game? I wanted to check that a player with -9 PA has a PA of between 150-180 as I checked what Cerci's was these days and its -9. Other Players i would like include Cigarini, Rosina, Montolivio, Amelia, Quagliarella, from Italy for more squad depth. Can you suggest any other players for LB and ST, they don't have to be Italian but I don't like paying huge amounts for 1 player until I am happy with the rest of the squad. And any other players you would like to suggest please feel free to do so. So far I have played several games, its going ok so far. My results have been: Roma 5-2 AEK Roma 2-2 Panathinaikos Roma 3-0 Leverkusen II Roma 7-1 Bradford Roma 4-1 Brighton Roma 4-0 QPR Roma 2-2 Inter (Lost 4-2 on Penalties) So I have not played enough games to properly see how good the tactic and team are but apart from the Inter game (which was very close) I have won every game scoring a lot of goals in the process.

Guest Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 Ive just started a game with Roma, playing virtually the same team as the above post, but with Giuly and Esposito ahead of Taddei. Ive also got Al-Hawasawi up front with Totti in a free role behind him, although Im not sure if Ill use Vucinic instead. Any tips on how to get the most from Totti? Ive got him with a very high mentality, CF and a free role, low closing down too so he gets more space. Do most people use arrows to get Mancini and the other winger to cut inside? Al-Hawasawi is very short so i dont need many crosses, although Vucinic would probably cause a change of plan there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 Is anyone else playing as Roma? I finished 4th in the first season, one point behind Fiorentina in 3rd and 3 or 4 behind AC in 2nd. Inter ran away with the title with 97 points, about 11 ahead of AC I think. Sold Mancini to Inter for £20m in January as he wanted a new challenge, brought in Riki and Armand to give me a stronger looking left hand side. Im not sure whether to move to a 4-4-2 formation with Totti playing alongside someone else, what kind of player does he work best with? Im looking to buy Clerc to give me a back four of Armand, Mexes, Juan/Samba/Andreolli,and Clerc/Cicinho. Midfield should be fine with De Rossi and Aquilani to boss that, with Riki and Taddei/a new signing down the wings. Im struggling to think how im going to overhaul Inter though, with them, AC and Juve all spending silly money on players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

topoftheleague Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 OK - into season 3. Won the treble last season, inter ran me close in the league. Beat Barca in the champions league final on pens 4-1. Curci the hero. Squad looks like this:- GK - Akinfeev (24m) / Curci RB - Cicinho / Zaccardo CB - Mexes / Andreolli CB - Juan / Forster LB - Kleber / Sakho RM - Dos Santos (free transfer) / Rosina CM - De Rossi / Pizarro CM - Aquilina / Mihelic LM - Menez / Taddei ST - Huntelaar / Totti ST - Aguero (£45m) / Briand Club has just been taken over by an Italian Tycoon. He was going to sack me as he 'wanted his own man at the helm'. After canvassing opinion he has now allowed me to keep my job, put £15m in the coffers and upgrading the youth facilities. which is good. Good start to the season - Won Italian supercup - Aguero getting the winner against Lazio - always a nice team to beat. Won Euro super-cup - Aguero again! Won first six games of the league, so have Inter though. Beat by Shaktar away in the Champions league though, not too bad a group (Marseille and Spartak too) so should still win the group. watch this space......

onimkron Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 I was wondering what kind of player people go for when replacing Totti, as I'm about to start my second season.

gio Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 I've just gone back to my Roma game... I've signed Quagriarella, co-owned, for £3m. Also signed Wagner, Anichebe and Barnetta on loan. I'm in December, 4th in Serie A, and qualified for the last 16 of the CL. However, I'm not happy at my performance so far at all. My main problem is that Totti averages just 6.8... and has scored 4 goals in 20 games. I've tried him as AMC and a lone SC, but nothing seems to work. How does everyone else play with Totti?
