In football, domination is not important, final result is important and Elfsborg has it today with a single goal to get three points. This defeat in Sweden shows that Roma are not actually improved too much with their new appointed coach, Juric. They will fluctuate between wins and losses with very low margin of difference, before Juric can improve their team significantly or he will be fired and out of Roma.
What's the usefulness of ball possession if you don't achieve victory in the end? I really never thought AS Roma could lose against a team I can not even pronounce their name but what do we expect when their couch bench his first eleven squad and played team B other than defeat? There is no magic you can perform to win a game if you're not playing with your best men.
Perhaps, he's trying to sacrifice the Europa league for the sake of top four in their domestic league. They are currently occupying twenty seventh position in the table after yesterday game making it one draw and one defeat for them. They are nine on the domestic league table and the probability of finishing in top four is very slim at the moment considering their current form.
I don't know the couch plan for resting his best players yesterday until damage done beyond repair and I can't tell which one he's sacrificing for which but Either way, he will lose both if care is not taken.
