Roma will play in this seasons UEFA Champions League after the 4 clubs involved in the Italian match-fixing scandal were penalised.
Roma, Chievo Verona, Palermo will now represent Italy next season in the champions league.

Yeah thank god for that, Joel ya had me freaked out there...a team in Serie B in the CL....
Anyways i think that Roma and Inter will have a good chance in Europe next season. Romas style is very suited to the European game, once they can play to it. Inter obviously have the players, but if they can just get consistent and get Adriano to form a god damned partnership with some striker, be it Martins Cruz or whatever new signing ye get, then Inter have a real chance.
Palermos form after Del Nieri got the boot was awesome and Di Natalie was an awesome signing. Really added some class and genius to their front line. Chievo, i really dont know much about. They always somehow seem to fly just below my radar and then sneak into European qualifying spots.

Yeah I like Roma in Europe they seem to have that 'quality' to play well in Europe even when they're playing badly on the domestic front. If Totti can improve his form and the others players can continue thiers I see no reason why Roma can't qualify for the Champions League again next season and progress well in this tournament. They're in with a good chance of the Scudetti too if Milan underperform and Inter don't play to their potential.

I bet Palermo is hurting a little after losing Toni last season and now Grosso this season. Coulda used them for sure in the CL.

Man, i think AC are a non starter for next seasons title with the point deductions. If Romas squad can handle the CL and the Serie A run, then they could be up for one of their best seasons ever i reckon. But alot will rest on Tottis shoulders as usual. And Vucinic would be a great signing to help with that challenge

Yeah man thats gotta suck. Their 2 best players from the last few seasons. Well once they can keep the big guns off of Zaccardo and continue to sign decent squad players like Budan and Agliardi and some quoality players like Simplicio and Diana, they will do alright on all fronts i would say.

Looking forward to seeing Roma in the Chamions leauge again. This is serious incentive to strengthen the squad now, in addition to the already savy buys on the cheap. And of course now there should be a much better chance of holding on to the much-coveted Chivu, seeing as Roma are now serious title contenders.

Chivu has already stated he wants to stay, but no one knows how much to read into that mroe than AC fans with $hevchenko

palermo's stadium has a great atmosphere
The visiting teams will not enjoy it there
I hope we can buy more players to have a big squad which we need to challenge for the schudetto and also do well in UCL
Hope we can get 2 or 3 players from the relegated clubs

Roma are very unpredictable, they can play like the best team in Serie A and also the worst, With the current squad they have i think they will challenge for the scudetto, as for the Champions League, i think they can reach the knock out stages and depending on the opposition and the form they are in i think they can do alright.
