#2 Rudi Garcia walking on shaky ground at Roma
Embattled AS Roma coach Rudi Garcia has been on the receiving end of relentless flak from the Curva Sud (the South End of Stadio Olimpico where Roma fans congregate), who are constantly demanding for his head.
With only one win in the last five league games, the wheels have come off for Roma. The capital club have dropped to fifth in the standings, and their abject display in the Champions League has resulted in a clash with Spanish leviathans Real Madrid in the last 16. Moreover, La Maggica have also been dumped out of the Coppa Italia after losing to second tier side Spezia 4-2 on penalties at home.
Garcia has drawn fingers at himself for his bizarre team selections in vital games and has also failed to beef up the Roma defence that has been leaking goals at a preposterous rate. The Frenchman had promised the fans to secure the Scudetto for them the last term, but failed. And it seems as if the promise will remain unfulfilled this season too.
The knives are already out for the former Lille gaffe, and needs to get Roma’s faltering season back on track sooner rather than later, if he’s to save his job.
