Team Focus: Zeman's Roma

by James Horncastle at venerdì, gen 25 2013 11:08
Team Focus: Zeman's Roma Contrary to popular opinion, the concept of defending is not anathema to Zdenek Zeman. He isn't against it per se. It's nothing personal, the great man insists. It's just why make a priority of it, when it's not what most people watch a game for? In that sense, Zeman's outlook on football is quite d...
