LINK to all goals
3-1 victory against Inter at San Siro was a huge result for a short handed Roma to get the season started off on the right note.
The buildup for the second goal from Totti to Osvaldo is a pure Zemanlandia as it gets!
Totti was -- as Hudson may say -- magisterial.

Was an important match after the draw with Catania for some early season confidence.
Perhaps the silver lining in Bradley and Pjanic being sidelined and then De Rossi and Balzaretti going out was that kids like Tachtsidis, Florenzi really thrived in what could have been a disaster: their first Serie A minutes in San Siro.

Osvaldo's performance, an emoticon-essay:
I actually watched this weekend even without Bradey because of Zeman's approach to the game. It doesn't disappoint.
Couple of questions/comments:
How does the performance of, say, Florenzi affect Michael Bradley's position in the team?
You highlighted Castan's performance for the first game, and he was really solid again. Put in tackles on Milito and Guarin that probably prevented two goals.

Osvaldo's performance, an emoticon-essay:
Those emoticons pretty much sum up the range of Osvaldo in general. He seems right on the verge of being an elite striker but needs to keep his head about him. Point of Osvaldo interest: Of late, he's taken to comparing Roma's form to periods of the Rolling Stones' recording career. Needless to say, there's hardly an easier way for him to stay on my good side.

I've always thought that you'd see a lot of rotation anyway since Zeman specifically asked for Tachtsidis and for Florenzi's loan to be recalled. Zeman's the least likely of any manager ever to ask for young players he's not going to give significant playing time. Add to that: Marquinho is a real spark plug as a late sub.
Tachtsidis' development may be more the concern long term for Bradley than Florenzi getting a start and subbing him here and there. It seems Zeman prefers to push De Rossi forward (the role he plays most often with the Italian NT) and sees Tachtsidis as the purer prodigy at regista.
The small chance that Tachtsidis just outright takes over the regista role with De Rossi moving forward into Bradley's MF slot is the only bad scenario for Bradley's PT long term.
All in all, I'm not too worried as I think once Bradley's healthy he'll continue to figure prominently in Zeman's plans. Even if that means not starting every single fixture, it will mean the team is excelling, so Bradley will still be a mainstay on CL caliber club under a coach that values teaching above all else.

Just looked up a pic of Tachtsidis. He looks a bit derp.
ETA: That announcer for the goals was hilarious.
