Pjanic with his 2nd. Roma 2-0 vs. Napoli. 20 minutes left. Roma aren't pretenders.

Raul garcia has got roma playing champagne football. They are counter attacking at pace and full throttle.

De rossi is looking like a beast and made some good tackles, and even a goal line clearance.

They're looking good for sure

How is he playing outside of the two goals? Decent partner for Ramires if Frank was to leave? contract runs out 2015

Can't judge really, when at Roma he has Strootman and De Rossi behind him.

We will have one light-weight midfield with him and Ramires - although the latter does tackle like a beast!

Napoli really looked shit in the first half... Roma albeit having to make 2 earlyish changes with Totti (their best player) and Gervinho whos been good, still looked comfortable except for 15 minutes in the second half. Wouldn't say Roma are title contenders but you never know if they keep this run up...

Also Pjanic's freekick was great

I see Pjanic more of 1 of the 3 CMs in a 4-3-3 or the CAM in a 4-2-3-1. Wouldn't exploit his abilities to the fullest if he plays in the pivot.

And speaking of Pjanic, we would have probably gotten him 2 years ago had AVB been appointed earlier than he was and we might not have bought Mata in the end..

And yet Napoli arguably created the two best chances in that first half, if not the game. Had Pandev and/or Insigne not messed up those opportunities, the game would have turned out differently. For all of Roma's good play, they didn't really create too many clear cut openings in front of goal.
