    This is a great signing for Roma and one of the best signings all-around this summer for any club IMO. Jérémy Menez is well worth his €14m price. He's only 21 years-old and recently earned his first full cap for France. France have so much spectacular young talent.

    You just know that Wenger was looking at this guy.

    Impressive video.

    Looks like a quality signing but then again that video does not show the other side of the story

    I've seen him play many times and I like him more than Nasri. Excellent signing by Roma. Im a bit shocked that no Super club tried to get him.

    Good for Menez, good for Roma.

    Also, good for Freddy Adu. He might be moving into Menez's position at Monaco.

    Roma are now considered as a super club by media.

    Ehh personally I would not consider them a Super club. But they are a good club for sure & they will be fighting for the schudetto during this season. I also liked that they signed " La bestia" batista from Real Madrid.

    I personally agree with the media for this one. Roma have made great strides in finances and player transfers. They've spent a lot and yet are very rich. I believe they are one of the two highest ranked clubs in television rights. That's got to be a super club. The trophies aren't going to pour in, but they will contend heavily in all competitions that for sure.

    They are always a tough team to play. Apart from that one time against United.

    7-1 it really knocked them down in standing, as that was there most humiliating defeat in a long long time. But they seem to have picked themselves up and are making steady progress.
