The match against Inter Milan at home will be the biggest test for De Rossi because the rivalry between the two is quite prestigious and As Roma must win if they want to catch up in the standings. It feels a little difficult because Inter Milan are in good form at the moment and De Rossi will definitely have a hard time facing them.
It was a very large test and almost impossible to complete. How could you give the match against Inter as a test for De Rossi? I mean, even if Roma loses the match, it doesn't mean that De Rossi is unable to carry out his duties well because the opponent is Inter Milan, the strongest team in Serie A at the moment. Maybe we can use the match against Ac Milan or Atalanta as a test for De Rossi to show the development of the team he is coaching. Or at least the match against Feyenoord in the European league. I think it would be more appropriate to look at De Rossi's capacity as the new coach of As Roma.
Although Roma's position is number five in the points table, there is a lot of difference between Roma's points and Inter Milan's points. Juventus seem to be competing almost equally with Inter Milan so far. Inter Milan is performing consistently and Juve's performance is also noticeable. Inter Milan has 54 points and Juventus has 53 points, that is, there is only one point gap with the two teams, but Juventus has played one match more than Inter Milan. The most positive aspect for Inter Milan is that they have lost just one match this season and have drawn the other three matches and have picked up full points in 17 matches. Since Juventus has played one match more than Inter Milan, Inter Milan may increase the points gap with Juventus in the next match.
