The former Giallorossi player, Vincent Candela, spoke to Radio Audax 107.65 about As Roma and the De Rossi situation.
What had Di Biagio more than De Rossi considering that he was the best central midfield of Zeman?
“Gigi was able to verticalize very well, he was always quick to throw the ball forward and never backwards. He also knew how to cut in the box and scoring goals as De Rossi does, so I think that Daniele can play in that role well. I am very happy that De Rossi scored two goals in two games with the national team and now he comes back in Roma loaded. However, I hope to see he play in his natural role because there he makes the difference and is in that part of the field where he can give more security. With all due respect to the Roma midfield, playing in a most tested department composed by players like Pirlo or Marchisio is another thing. Play also in another role is simpler with them…”
Regarding Genoa-Rome?
“The match at Marassi will not be easy. It ‘a complicated field, the fans are very hot and Genoa at home is always a very tough opponent. Winning would be essential to give continuity to this first part of the season, swinging so far.“
