I was all over-emotional! <br /><br />Of course it's not a good thing for a club to depend wholly on one player. But it's not just Totti, former local heroes like Bruno Conti are still very important to the club, no one player is ever going to be bigger than the team.<br /><br />and yeah, Ginkers, Alcock went down like Cristiano Ronaldo Spangly Princesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00298207390810348915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24976150.post-43261884637962382512007-01-25T16:55:00.000+00:002007-01-25T16:55:00.000+00:00The Totti incident did spark a whole series on Ita...The Totti incident did spark a whole series on Italian TV about the great shoves of all time.

He is so central to Roma that his absence hurts them enormously. But to call him scum is going too far.<br /><br />Trent/Spangly<br /><br />I think you have both summed up the two views of Totti. You either love the importance he has for his club or ginkershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16346019297504649488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24976150.post-45339656076808214662007-01-25T12:51:00.000+00:002007-01-25T12:51:00.000+00:00trenttoffee: sorry you're wrong about th=e influen...trenttoffee: sorry you're wrong about th=e influence. I defy you to find me a single Roma fan who things he has too much influence in the club. He *is* Roma. He's what Tony Adams used to be only more so. and, er, better. He's Roma through and through, he comes in the curva with us when he's out injured, he IS our spokesman, our bandiera, our hero. And yeah there's the unicef stuff, the loyalty, Spangly Princesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00298207390810348915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24976150.post-42026539063239271212007-01-24T23:08:00.000+00:002007-01-24T23:08:00.000+00:00Sorry, but I feel someone has to come to Totti's d...Sorry, but I feel someone has to come to Totti's defence - and it looks like that will have to be me!<br /><br />I think the whole thing was blown out of proportion to be honest, and if it hadn't been Totti, it wouldn't have even been a talking point. As to the sending off itself, I don't think his reaction to being elbowed was that bad, and not really deserving of a red card.

He's a player who has far too much influence within his club (Francesco, you're NOT the club owner/chairman/manager/spokes-person), and a primadonna within the National team (Francesco, when your country sends for you, either answer the call or retire.

He obviously has always had enough skill and flair to make fans swoon but every time he goes off the handle I just end up distancing my self from him. He'll probably end up leading Roma during an incredible purple patch at the end of the season to win everyone back again and then try his hardest to get rid of us againpatcookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10562844048305070041noreply@blogger.com
