GIALLOROSSI YORKSHIRE Q&A
Welcome to a brand new feature on Giallorossi Yorkshire, designed to spark discussion and connection between Roma fans!
This is the new Q&A page, where you'll be able to find the opinions of Roma fans on footballing matters. You can submit a question by commenting on the previous post on the page, or by Direct Messaging me on Twitter (@SamBanno1). Make it topical and Roma-related, but other than that there are no guidelines - be as creative as you wish! I will then post my answer to the question on the page, and other users can give their opinions too by commenting. We'll then be able to see what Roma fans are thinking about the team at that moment. To give you an idea of the kind of items you'll see on this page, here's a sample question and answer that I've made. Get involved and post your answer to it too in the comments! What Roma game have you enjoyed the most so far this season? My answer: For me, it was the 3-3 draw against Chelsea. Whilst I obviously preferred the result of the game at the Olimpico, when we beat them 3-0, for whatever reason it didn't quite match the emotions I went through during the away game. It was a fixture I didn't expect us to get anything out of, and I didn't know how we'd perform. But the players made us proud with a great performance - in my opinion we deserved to win that game too. Every goal we scored was great, but obviously the Dzeko volley took the headlines. And rightly so - the emotions as that ball went in the net were intense. For the few minutes we were in front, I wish you could have felt my pulse rate! It was the most excited I'd been in a long time. And I was just watching on the TV! For me, that's the performance I've been most proud of this season, and, as I've mentioned on a blog post on this site, it should be the blueprint for us going forwards. We managed to go one better next time against them by getting the win, which was also extremely enjoyable, but the range of emotions in the first game make that my favourite one so far. So, now it's time for you to get involved. Comment below with your answer to What Roma game have you enjoyed the most so far this season? And don't forget to send in your own questions too!

I suppose the vast majority will choose either the match at Stamford Bridge or the return leg in Rome, so I want to be original and look elsewhere. I was particularly happy after the away match with Atalanta. Every true romanista hates Atalanta but, apart from this, I was delighted to take three points in one of the most difficult venues in Italy, and the joy was doubled by the fact that the squad were still far from their current shape and hadn't assimilated anything of EDF's philosophy back then. So it was hard to get three points, we didn't fully deserve it, but still managed to put a victory in the bag. A good beginning bodes well and that's my favourite match to date (after the two against Chelsea, obviously :P).

A good choice! Looking back, you've raised some good points - the team was still in its infancy and the game showed us that we can get positive results even when we aren't playing at our best, against a strong opponent as well. As you say, it was a good way to start the season and a good sign for the rest of the campaign!

I also will choose the away game to Atalanta. It was the first game the majority of the fanbase did a double take were possibly "forced" to take a diferent view of EDF and the new program.

Yes, that game certainly set the tone for this team under Di Francesco. The wins have continued to come after, and hopefully that trend keeps going!
