Serie A 2013/2014

My god, Gervinho...he just dribbles past everyone for fun. Why couldn't he play like this for Arsenal?

 

[Catorce]

Pjaniiiiiiccc!

 

[pEllee]

What a free kick! Fantastic. Great work done by Gervinho to win the free kick.

 

[Cule4life]

And game over. Pjanic converts penaldo by beating Reina- The man who thwarted Rigoretelli

 

[pEllee]

Cannavaro...what the hell was that?

EDIT: Beautiful football from Roma. Breathtaking to be honest.

The game was boring.

8 games, 8 wins, 22 goals scored and only 1 conceded. That's an incredible record. Best defense in the world at the moment.

 

[Semi-Neutral]

When they a play a good team and do that to them, I'll agree. You guys said Napoli should have scored, and they are decent at the best in my opinion.

Nah i dont think so. Napoli were so bad that even Sunderland would have a shot at keeping a clean sheet. They havent faced world class teams yet and they dont play in CL.

Napoli are massively overrated. They have very little creativity

Come on, they have played good teams. And 1 goal conceded, it's hard to argue against it. And unlike most top teams, they actually don't have a great goalkeeper to help them.

And Napoli isn't just a decent team, they're a very good team.

inb4 Roma's Curva is closed for "territorial discrimination".

Napoli has Higuain who is a beast, and Insigne who will become one, but other than that, meh. And I think to be considered the best defense in the world you have to say, "Would the likes of Bayern, Dortmund, Madrid, Barcelona, Atletico, Arsenal, etc. score on this defense?" and I just can't see the answer being no in Roma's case.

Boom, save that.

One goal conceded, very very impressive. Great work from the coach

Really? You could say that about every team couldn't you? The reason you can't see it is because you don't even watch Serie A.


Which teams are currently defending better and whats their excuse for conceding goals against average/bad teams?

EDIT: As for the players; You've obviously never heard of Hamsik I guess.

Actually, inb4 Reina is fined & suspended for questioning the refereeing on Twitter.
