Match

AS Roma through in the cup

A 2‑1 win over Ascoli, and the draw for the next round can be watched with some interest for once.

Match

AS Roma are at home on the road

8 straight away victories. Sides that win away are usually sides that can defend and can counter, and the table has begun to reflect what those journeys have earned.

Match

Nobody wants to play AS Roma right now

4 wins in a row changes how opponents warm up: quieter, more glances across. Runs end, everybody knows that — but nobody in this dressing room is planning for it.

Player ratings

Bryan Cristante goes up and wins it — 7.94

A defender on the scoresheet, which happens rarely enough that everybody in the ground remembers who took the corner. 1 for him, and a mark of 7.94 for the rest of it.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Jonás Luna

Successful dribbles: 25. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Squad

Donyell Malen in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at AS Roma this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Market

Angeliño wants to know where this is going

“I want to win things, and I would like to do it here.” Nothing has been demanded and nothing has been threatened — but a boardroom at AS Roma hears a sentence like that exactly as it was built.

Squad

Manu Koné falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Match

AS Roma get the job done against Como

A 3‑2 win over Como, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.

Player ratings

Both of them Santiago Castro's — 9.04

2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 9.04, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

Market

Robinio Vaz is on his way

The clubs have agreed terms, and what remains is formality: a medical, a photograph, a signature. Nobody at AS Roma is pretending he will be back in the shirt.

Player ratings

Bryan Zaragoza has a hand in both — 7.95

One scored and one made, which is a different afternoon from scoring twice and an easier one to overlook. Marked 7.95, and involved in 2 of his side's goals.

Market

Angeliño wants more than AS Roma are offering

“I have ambitions, and I would like the club to share them.” Nobody has asked to leave and nobody has been shown the door — but a player chooses that sentence carefully, and a boardroom hears it exactly as it was meant.

Match

Santiago Castro sends AS Roma past Lecce

It finished 4‑3, and it was Santiago Castro’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to AS Roma.

Match

Santiago Castro among the goals in a wild afternoon

7 goals in one match, Santiago Castro on the scoresheet, and a scoreline that will look like a misprint. Neutrals could not have asked more of AS Roma and Lecce.

Squad

Paulo Dybala falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Player ratings

A masterclass from Yusuke Matsuo

Marked 8.24 — the sort of number a correspondent writes down twice to be sure. Everything he tried came off, and what he did not try was not worth trying.

Squad

Jonás Luna in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at AS Roma this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.
