Mauri hits the post and then Iturbe fucks up after being sent clear by a lovely Strootman pass.
Fuck me! 2-2! Totti!!!
What a fucking goal.
Unreal, unbelievable.
This could be Totti’s finest moment.

TOTTI!!!11
Strootman has been fantastic since coming on.
Destro for Iturbe. 2-2. '81.
Pjanic has had an absolute stinker.
Big save by De Sanctis after terrible Maicon error. Both teams are knackered.
Some save… would have expected Klose to score that.
Some amount of unforced errors from both sides.
Maicon is another guy who had a shocker.
We needed to be braver near the end.
Take that.

@Il Bomber Destro give @BeyondTLM a follow on twitter, some superb old school photos and match reports.
Away to Palermo this evening.
De Rossi and Nainggolan are suspended with Keita and Gervinho on interntational duty. Castan is due to return to training next week but I imagine he is a long way off action yet. The big question for Garcia is does he change the shape of the team with the lack of orthodox central midfielders or will he drop Florenzi back in there. I think we have become far too predictable and conservative in the way we approach games, we look a bit toothless when teams sit back and Totti drops deep and there’s no space for the attackers to run into and we have no focal point in the penalty area. Destro simply has to play more, we need to take games by the scruff of the neck more, two of our last three games we had to chase 2-0 deficits in the second half, we should be starting games like a train and putting them out of sight.
I’d like to see the following side for tonight:
De Sanctis
Maicon
Manolas
Astori
Holebas
Pjanic
Strootman
Iturbe
Totti
Ljajic
Destro
Sabatini said we won’t be signing anyone in this window but we’ve been linked with Darmian and Mohamed Salah. I think Maicon is very close to being done, his game has always revolved around his pace and stamina and he’s getting on now, he had a great first season with us but he is slowly regressing and beginning to become a liability, Torosidis is decent but we need a better player for a first choice right back and I’m a big fan of Darmian. Salah hasn’t done too much at Chelsea and not sure how great the need for another winger is but if it’s a loan deal with an option to buy then the risk is not all that great. The reason for Mbwia’s absence from the team recently is due to the fact that if he plays another game then Roma will be required to pay £5m for him in the summer, Sabatini is trying to renegotiate the transfer fee at present.
