First day of the Europa League and internal debut for Roma against the Turks of the Istanbul Basaksehir FK (team ranked second in the league last year and which was "relegated" in EL after losing the Champions League preliminaries against the Greeks of the Olympiacos.)

The Roma Fonseca coach prefers a very offensive kick and it was seen in these first 3 Serie A days where Roma scored 8 goals but suffered 6 sign that something back there still needs to be recorded. For tomorrow the coach at the press conference stated that he will do a bit of a turn over in view of the various commitments that await the Roma without revealing what changes he will bring to the line-up that has beaten Sassuolo 4-2 on Sunday. Easy to foresee a return between the owners of Zaniolo (on the bench on Sunday) and the inclusion of Spinazzola (to make Kolarov rejoice) Diawara and Juan Jesus little used in these first days. Mirante's debut in place of Pau Lopez is also possible.

The Turkish formation (team owned by the Turkish Ministry of Sport and Youth) is a very young formation (it was founded in 1990) but formed by a base of many expert players and many of them with a past also in Serie A. In fact in pink there are Robinho, Elia, Inler (among the former Serie A) besides the various Arda Turan, Clichy and Demba Ba just to name a few. The coach is also a former Serie A, in particular former Inter, or Okan Buruk.

They have not started at their best this season but in Europe they can try to start on the right foot with this adventure and at least they have the chance to score to the rearguard of Roma who, besides not being particularly hermetic, will also undergo some changes due to the turn-over. The Roma against at home must win and then forward from the first minute we could see the bomber Dzeko also because Kalinic is not yet 100% as stated openly by Fonseca himself.
