Italian clubs

AS Roma club hub

One-club icons, Capello’s Scudetto, Batistuta’s finishing, and Derby della Capitale.

Founded 1927 · Rome

AS Roma sits at the centre of Giallorossi memory through Francesco Totti and Daniele De Rossi’s one-club continuity, the 2001 Scudetto shelf, and Spalletti creative windows. This hub keeps the Batistuta attacking peak distinct from Lazio derby timelines — no invented trophy tallies. Practise Common Player, Intersection, Timed, and Squad Builder on verified careers only.

Notable eras

2001 Capello Scudetto shelf

The 2000–01 league title under Fabio Capello remains one of Roma’s clearest domestic labels. Keep the Batistuta–Totti unit separate from later Spalletti casts.

Spalletti creative windows

Luciano Spalletti’s Roma spells produced creative shelves that often pushed Totti into a false-nine role. Do not merge those units with 2001 Scudetto personnel.

Totti–De Rossi one-club continuity

Long captaincy and midfield/forward identity form a memory shelf independent of managerial cycles. Label European semi-final names separately from that continuity.

    Creative dribbling chapter; separate Bari and other spells honestly.
