Roma didn’t start the season as well as they hoped following a busy summer, but the brass continues to back Daniele De Rossi. The Giallorossi have yet to win. They have drawn thrice and lost once so far.
According to Corriere dello Sport, the Friedkin family has full confidence in the young coach. They handed him a relatively rich three-year contract late last season following an initial short-term one after coming in to replace José Mourinho.
The Roma hierarchy relayed their trust in De Rossi early in the week following the recent bitter tie with Genoa. They are willing to cut the gaffer some slack as the squad has been substantially overhauled and some newcomers joined late. Moreover, they have added several foreigners who need to adapt to Serie A.
The Giallorossi invested a lot and aim to return to the Champions League, but they aren’t panicking about the early disappointments. Stefano Pioli, who’s being courted by Saudi Arabia, has been rumored to be a candidate for the bench if things went awry.
Our Take on Roma and De Rossi
It’s only fair to stick with him for at least a couple of months after they seemingly pivoted on the fly in the final stretch of the window, signing two free-agent center-backs and signaling a tactical switch. The Paulo Dybala saga had deep consequences from the schematic standpoint, and the boss is back to square one in finding how to fit all his new pieces together. Despite their final moves, a 4-2-3-1 is still the most straightforward way, even though some important players will have to adapt or ride the pine occasionally.
