BlueLyon 9,359 Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Top player, my favourite from Italian team. He might not suit young project but we need experience and he is THE guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizy 18,952 Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 I heard many rumors on why he has a long sleeve on his right arm. Anyone know for sure why?He kicks bloody ass! Maybe he's got an offensive tattoo? Like a naked woman or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneMoSalah 8,886 Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 I heard many rumors on why he has a long sleeve on his right arm. Anyone know for sure why?He kicks bloody ass! There is that many rumors about hiding his tattoo's and its what Roman gladiators did when they were still about. Its crazy. He is a class player though, everyone who questioned him before the start of this tournament despite him having a bad season with Roma need to have a second look. If Jose can get him fired up like Prandelli he would be superb here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jype 6,398 Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 Words can't even begin to describe how much I want this guy to be a Chelsea player next season. I've been on the bandwagon from the start and his performances at the Confederations Cup sure haven't changed my mind. Maybe he had an average season at Roma and some people there think he's past it but whenever he plays for Italy he's the best player in the world for that role, no doubt about it. If his bad form for AS Roma mean he's now available for cheap, we should do everything in our power to sign him. If there's someone who can get the 'national team De Rossi' out of the lad for club football again as well it's Jose Mourinho. For just €10-15m DDR could easily be the signing of the season.

Melanicus 5,208 Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 For luck.WrongMaybe he's got an offensive tattoo? Like a naked woman or something.Closer, but it's not offensive.There is that many rumors about hiding his tattoo's and its what Roman gladiators did when they were still about. Its crazy. Wrong.I heard many rumors on why he has a long sleeve on his right arm. Anyone know for sure why?He kicks bloody ass! Tattoo on his left arm is very meaningful to de Rossi and his daughter Gaia. It's very private thing for him. So he covers his left arm with long sleeve to show sign of personal privacy and respect to the game, because many European players like to show-off their tattoos. So, what's tattoo on De Rossi's left arm? Here it is.He did this tattoo for his daughter Gaia and here’s the meaning:"UBI TU GAIUS IBI GAIA" means “Where you are GAIA you are, I’ll be there" sounds better in Italian which made it more or less "wherever you are I’ll be there (because in Ancient times, Gai was synonym for man, and Gaia for woman). " This statement was said by bride on Roman weddings, but it seems obvious that in this case it's for his daughter. It's really cool thing to do. That's the only correct explanation. If you don't trust me, look up the web and know that De Rossi even changed his number, when Gaia was born on 16th of June. She means a lot to him really.

The Skipper 20,609 Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 He's better defensively than any CB we currently have.He isn't. He just plays in a system that allows the whole team to defend well thus reducing the exposure their CBs have. That wasn't the case for us last season.

The Skipper 20,609 Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 still he is better than cahill and terry in his current state.Cahill probably but I actually think JT is still the better defender, he just didn't have a good season. I think JT will be more than useful if he stays fit under JM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LondonPride1905 236 Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 Daniele Sorry for spam, but if we manage, in some other dimension to buy De Rossi I swear to God that I will go to London and buy beers for everyone at the pub. Seriously, this is so impossible it makes me want him so bad. IMO , this transfer is more impossible than CR to us. Artinho, do coment on my thought please.

OneMoSalah 8,886 Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 I'm pretty sure all his tattoos on his arm and bicep are for his daughter , the Roman gladiator thing was just a rumor I'd seen on those links in this post I made a month ago. He wears one sleeve short and one sleeve long to imitate Roman gladiators apparently or its something to do with covering up his tattoo to show respect.http://thesoccerforces.blogspot.co.uk/2012/06/sleeve-shirts-mystery-daniele-de-rossi.htmlPlus De Rossi's tattoo on his left arm is this http://thesoccerforces.blogspot.co.uk/2012/06/sleeve-shirts-mystery-daniele-de-rossi.htmlHe also has on his bicep on his right arm this:which is for his daughter apparently.

different level 1,056 Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 I don't think acquiring his services is that impossible. It's more like we are not that interested in that deal apparently as the rumours were never that strong. Yeah he is becoming a legendary figure in his club as he has spent his entire career with them bla bla bla, but then again he has never won a single important trophy and that + the salary increase could be the incentive to make him move.

Azpinator 2,325 Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 Well, the Azpi rumours for example were pretty weak at the beginning of last year's transfer window (weaker than De Rossi's ones this year).. And then after the Olympics it all happened quickly.. I hope the same happens with De Rossi after the Confederations Cup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
