It’s been a long time since Roma have been in such a situation. Saturday loss in Torino showed how big is the crisis they are in and although Luciano Spalletti survived on the bench it is not clear how Romans will handle this situation. They are on the wrong side of the standings in Serie A, lost all of the away matches in domestic championship, going on a five-game losing run including the Champions League and few people believe they stand some chance of saving the season. The combination of injuries and poor form of the players caused a terrible start and Roma are on their knees at the moment. Unfortunately the rivals at Olimpico will be Chelsea that after losing to Liverpool ten days ago, fought back by winning Hull and Sunderland which saw the Blues back on top. Still, judging by what we saw Scolari’s side still look like they have the quality for title contention. They want to finish the job in the group quickly and get to the knock-out stage as soon as possible so they can focus on the domestic championship.
