Zdenek Zeman had been back to Olimpico stadium and AS ROMA..

He ever trained AS ROMA in season 1997-1999

In Season 1997-1999, He is the first coach see the biggest talent of Fransesco Totti and put him as playmaker..He build too his squad (before completed by Fabio Capello) with 2 great full back like Vincent Candella (left full back) and Cafu (right full back)..

Cafu comes to AS ROMA since 1999 and leave AS ROMA 2003. It means one of the Zeman tactics is using the winger play when his tactics need a good full back that can play for attacking and good for defending..

What about Vincent Candella? He comes from Guigamp since 1997 (it means the first era of Zdenek Zeman in AS ROMA) and candella with Cafu build the good defending with Aldair and Zago...

Same like Luis enrique, Zdenek Zeman always prefer choose youngter as his player..He is not afraid for using young player..

If his first season, he can exploit the ability of Fransesco Totti (season 1997-1999), now AS ROMA fans maybe wait who is the next Fransesco Totti in his scheme and tactics..

 

In his first year in his first era (season 1997/1998), Abel balbo (an argentina forward ) is top scorer for AS ROMA with 14 goals (3 pinalty) and Fransesco Totti is the second top scorer (13 goals), Paulo Sergio with 12 goals, Marco Delvecchio and Luigi Di Biagio with 7 goals..AS ROMA in this first year score 67 goals but conceding 42 goals..and AS ROMA finished fourthed, three places above Lazio in the table..In this first year, Italy public knows Totti and Cafu, the rising stars in Italy league

In his second year of his first era (season 1998/season 1999), Marco Delvecchio become top scorer (18 goals), Fransesco Totti (12 goals), paulo Sergio with 12 goals, and Eusebio Fransesco with 8 goals. The biggest difference with his first year that no more Abel Balbo when Marco Delvecchio become the number one forward in that season.in this second year, AS ROMA scored 42 goals but get 49 goals (the poor defensive play is not supporting the aggresive tactics of Zeman with 4-3-3). Unfortunatelly in this season, Lazio beat AS ROMA in table and only finished fifth.

 

Zeman always like put the formation 4-3-3 when it means that his team can score many goals but get many goals too

 

Many discussion about who is the next Fransesco Totti in second era of Zdenek Zeman...

The discussion answer say that maybe He is Erik Lamela (the player`s was coming in Luis Enrique era from River Plater), or maybe ex Zeman player in Pescara (Veratti) , Fransesco Totti himself again or maybe another player that maybe come to AS ROMA next season...

 

Just wait and see after Euro cup over, about the scheme of Zdenek Zeman in his second era...Euro cup maybe can give some inspiration for Zdenek Zeman..But i believe it can be started by building a good defender and find the great full back like his first era in AS ROMA
