Are you listening to yourself, Jimmy. Roma does not buy replacements like other so called 'big teams'. Have you been watching the actions of this organization over the last several years? It's business as usual at Roma. We put all of our eggs in one basket and if it all goes to hell, then we bring in Abel Xavier. It has to be part of the plan, a term I use loosely with Roma. We can sell a Chivu for 15 million and bring in a Juan, but that is rare indeed. But, Roma is not going to replace a Mexes when Burdisso cost 8 million + his contract. In addition, I think it is pretty well accepted that even with a year from the expiration of a player's contract, no club will offer significant money. We went through that with Cassano.
Let me ask you, how do you replace Mexes? It takes money.

I can only comment on what I have seen since I was about 10 years old. I am beholden to the Roma of Agostino Di Bartolomei and Bruno Conti. Therefore, in my humble opinion it has to be Franco Tancredi. No Roma keeper in my lifetime has been so consistently good as Tancredi over such a long period of time. Even though as I sit here today, I hold an negative opinion of his character given the way he left Roma with Capello to go to rubentus, then to Real Madrid. Now, he is on Capello's staff in England. Apparently, he tied himself to Capello's star and is making quite a nice living.
He will always be considered a Roma legend which made his departure a sore spot for Roma fans of my generation.
Thanks. I'd love to be able to download a game from that era. I know they would be difficult to find if they exist at all on the internet. Edzo would probably know. The fateful European Cup Final in 1984 would probably be floating around somewhere I imagine. I have only seen clips of Bruno Conti playing I'd love to see more. He seems to me to be an all around class act as far as people go.
Edit: Wow Tancredi was incredible!

It was certainly a different world back then, Jeff. Before money separated the players from the fans. This is what disturbs me about the present mentality of the game. In those days, money had not really corrupted the game on the level that we see today. Players, coaches and owners knew how great teams were built. It was very simple. You devlelop the youth of your country to create a world class league and a competitive national side. They still know that today, but it is all about instant senstation. But, the problems with the world game is another subject all together.

Burdisso had his chance and took it. That is what is to be expected in any club with a strong squad or, in Roma's case, strong parts of their squad. Mexes still played many games too.
Ranieri said he regards Mexes as a starter and, so far, there is no reason to doubt him.
The problem of Mexes's contractual situation was not caused by Ranieri.
Was it Gio or Carlo or both who still had faith he was gonna propose an offer? Some good news, if true, after I heard yesterday that Criscitiello (from tuttomercatoweb) saying that in February Angelucci would become the new owner of Roma and willing to invest 150million to the squad and whatnot.
Poor Carlo. That's not very good news. Fuck being home for Christmas, though - just so long as he's able to enjoy a drink or three wherever he is. That'd be the cruellest blow of all for Carlo, I think.
Indeed. Lets hope he is able enough to enjoy a few, wherever he may be. You're not heading home for Christmas yourself, Tom, I take it? I suppose the ship to Mid World is unable to sail at the moment with the weather etc, eh?
