Welcome To The Jungle Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 Scored for Roma for the 23rd consecutive season. In an era of money dominating the game the man could have got a huge money move to Asia or the USA but instead has stuck with his heart. A legend of the game, not just Roma.

CotswoldRed Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 Firstly, let me say his loyalty is a good thing. However, I wonder how far his loyalty would stretch if Roma was a backwater 3rd tier Italian outfit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's used as a bit part player and if a player is still fit enough to play and still has the talent then why not? I'm sure if I were Roma manager I'd give my left bollock to have his experience and die hard loyalty in the dressing room! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nailed it, may have lost his pace and may be unable to play 90mins a game but Totti still has that class on and of the pitch, he is a legend, and anyone who watches Serie a will know he is certainly no dead rubber, he Oozes class still.

Not joking at all.His presence on the bench creates pressure on the coach to bring him on. The fact he might do something once in a blue moon doesn't justify his selection. Serie A is rubbish compared to what it once was and if he was still good enough he would be used far more. I have no idea whether he is a positive factor in the dressing room or not - he appears to be the biggest man in the club and that isn't healthy imo.

Gazred Posted September 12, 2016 Report Share Posted September 12, 2016 He's looked after himself and adapted his game accordingly to prolong his career. They do seem to that fairly regularly in Italy. Not really a legend on the world stage but a club legend for Roma. Always nice to see one club players in this day and age.
