Is he a master tactician, or is he just trying to make ends meet?

Amidst the hymns, Gasperini in Rome still heard some doubts. For example, some of his personnel changes in the last two games, especially against Inter Milan, left many Roma fans scratching their heads. Some commentators lamented why Gasperini did not use the two centers and was obsessed with forwardless tactics. Dybala seemed very uncomfortable in the frontcourt.

However, some media can fully understand Gasperini's difficulties. What the old man wants now is to find the most suitable tactics for Roma through constant changes. Of course, the most unspeakable difficulty is that Dov Bik and new aid Ferguson in the Roma team cannot fight a tough battle at all. They can neither score goals nor hold up the opponent's defender. This is also an important factual basis for many media's recent speculation that Roma will introduce Manchester United's frustrated Zirkzee in the winter.

If Zirkzee comes, someone in the team will definitely have to leave. Most people believe that Roma will keep Dov Bik and let go of the loaned forward Ferguson. The reason is not that Dovbek is stronger. In fact, Roma wanted to sell Dovbek in the summer, but it was just because Dovbek was injured midway that no one cared about him. Ferguson originally performed well in the warm-up matches of the summer training camp, but returned to the league and quickly returned to his original shape. It is also the most economical plan for Roma to cancel the lease. Forget it, but for Ferguson, it may be a huge psychological blow. The Brighton center once had a promising future and was valued at 100 million euros by the club. After a serious injury, he has been unable to get out of his spiritual predicament. He originally thought that coming to Rome would be a new turning point. Now it seems that he may be getting deeper and deeper.

Fortunately, most media and fans are very tolerant of Gasperini. Roma's goal this season is to return to the Champions League. Although they have lost two games, the team's 15 points and Naples Inter Milan are still tied for the top spot, which has exceeded the team's expectations. Gasperini has enough time to experiment with his ideal lineup. However, for the two frustrated players Dov Bik and Ferguson, the time left for them may be very limited.
