if Roma is able to withstand attacks from Inter and can share the score to end the match in a draw and if Roma can survive this is an early sign that De Rossi is almost successful in making a good contribution for Roma.
2 matches of As Roma with De Rossi got positive results. They won albeit with not much goal difference but it was a good start. Against Inter it takes place week 2 of February, before that they will play Cagliari. Of course Roma are favourites to win against Cagliari, but for Inter a draw is a pretty good result. There are rumours that Roma want to sign Kloop, but that's not certain. Since I've read Kloop will take a break for at least 1 year.
Yes, it cannot be denied that this is a good start for de Rossi in coaching Roma. However, fortunately, Roma's two opponents yesterday were not top clubs, in fact one of them was a relegation zone club. So, it is natural for Roma to win both matches. However, this is a quite influential tactical test for de Rossi before finally facing a tough match against Inter later. This is where de Rossi's capacity will be truly tested. This definitely won't be easy because we know that Roma is still not strong enough compared to Inter Milan for this season. So, de Rossi will really face this challenge quite difficult. Worse, they might lose against Inter, and this is quite reasonable if you look at the consistency and performance between the two. However, if de Rossi is able to create tactics that are very suitable for Roma and can carry them out solidly, it is possible that they will draw. I am also curious about Roma's progress with de Rossi.

Of course, in football the result is everything. However, Roma didn't play a very good game against Salernitana. In the first half they had almost no scoring chances and Salernitana attacked very effectively. Candreva, Salernitana's experienced player, performed very well and created important opportunities for Salernitana in the first half. If Roma hadn't taken the lead with a penalty goal in the second half we could have been talking about different things today. De Rossi has a very difficult job at Roma.
In the last match, Roma's performance in the first half was not very impressive, especially in the attack line. They really excelled in ball possession and they really controlled the game. However, that alone was not enough because they really couldn't put any significant pressure on Salernitana's defense. That's why in the first half, the match was quite boring, in fact several times it was Salernitana who attacked quickly again. Luckily in the second half, things changed quite a bit and in the end Roma were able to win by 2 goals.
