Eight of the ten goals Roma have conceded have come in the second half, and the side's physical collapse in the closing stages of matches is reaching catastrophic proportions. Gian Piero Gasperini's relentless pressing system demands maximum energy from his players, while a lack of depth on the bench is costing the Giallorossi games they should be winning. In the 3-2 Champions League defeat by Manchester United, Roma threw away a 2-0 lead, a carbon copy of their collapses against Real Madrid and Inter Milan. For the January transfer window, sporting director Tony D'Amico has made a loan move for Chelsea winger Jamie Gittens his priority. Real Madrid youngster Endrick, Stuttgart's Jamie Leweling and Frosinone's Giorgi Kvernadze are being considered as alternatives. The tank is empty. An injury to Devyne Rensch has further limited the squad's rotation options.
