no comparison between taxi and de rossi. de rossi just a tad faster, but challenged at better angles and relished tackling. energy to play box to box, though played deeper in the CM and even at CB late in his career. sent off a record amount of times in serie a, i believe.
taxi had him beat on vision..i'd say technique was too close to call. de rossi made it look easier because he had a high football iq. always made the right turn with the ball, shielded the ball correctly..etc...etc..
as far as roma fans, 2nd place roma had a 3/4 greek back 4 in 2014-2015 had conceded only 7 goals more than juventus - who won the title by 17 points. roma's problem that year was scoring - 8th best scoring cub in italy that year.
