It is the Rome of Paulo Fonseca, strategist in redesigning a team destroyed by injuries;
is the Rome of Gianluca Mancini, reinvented (yes) as a splendid midfielder in front of the defense as he was not from Fiorentina's youth team;
it is also the Rome of a revived Javier Pastore, even out of the field with a standing ovation of the entire Olimpico unthinkable only a few weeks ago.
But it is above all the Rome of a Nicolò Zaniolo which seems to have incorporated the teachings of those who invited him to become great at 360 ° and what time
he wants to become the symbol, the driver of what can be the crazy splinter of our league.
CONTINUITY – Four consecutive goals between Serie A and Europa League,
but also the feeling of finally being able to find that continuity that is innate in the great soccer players. Thanks to the work of a technician who has not taken refuge in the usual excuses for copious absences, all concentrated in recent times and in a strategic department such as the midfield, which has been able to make itself understood and accepted by a group of undisputed quality but in search of a leader, even off the pitch. And he found it in the former Shakhtar Donetsk coach, who chose to empower his players and in Zaniolo he identified a huge talent that probably only lacks the right guidance to explode and consecrate himself definitively.
AND LA JUVE … – A growth started from afar, from the public pitch of the Giallorossi sporting director Gianluca Petrachi after a very negative European Under 21 with Italy and some behaviors over the top. Path incidents perhaps physiological in a maturation process that Juventus has not been insensitive to, since a match with former Inter's Primavera is not lost and that recently observed him live, with the director of the Paratici technical area in the front line. Temptations far today, after the 2024 contract renewal of the last weeks and the first 50 appearances in Giallorossi to celebrate, but still current in a transfer market that never closes. It is increasingly the Rome of Nicolò Zaniolo.
