If Sheva Leaves... Why not Totti?

I know he's not an out and out striker, but he scores a LOT of goals for a second striker, and with him and KaKa playing off of Pippo or Gila I'm sure we would score for fun.
Not an Ideal situation, but Who can replace Sheva, no one, he is unique in that he is a striker who can create goals for others and also play a physical game.

Totti has been scoring in Italy for years, has proved his class ov er and over again and I think was the best player in Italy this year untill his injury.
He may be expensive (23million euro?) but he would be a great addition if we lose Sheva.

What do you think?

I honestly can't see Totti leaving Roma.

Neither can I but wouldn't it be nice?

i dont see him leaving too but still i prefer henry or etoo

Perhaps, but it depends what you're aiming for in the side.

I think Totti's arrival may be troublesome for some of our current players as they have similar roles (Kaka for example). But unless I see him at Milan, its hard to comment. Personally, I doubt I'd like to have him at this point, as I see some better alternatives for us.

After Ronaldinho, comes Totti. Ofcourse he would fit in, no doubt. But Totti will never leave, and he stated last week that he'd rather win 1 title at Roma than 10 at Milan.

Totti is a great player. I would love to see him playing for us, but not as a replacement for shevchenko. Why? Because i dont think he can replace sheva. Totti, to me, is more in the mould of rui costa and zidane. What sheva has and totti doesnt is PACE. so if we are to replace sheva, we gotta get somebody with genuine pace, ala henry. I say with get them both. I say we get Totti (cmon berlusconi!) and create a new "playmaker" position for him and also pick up henry to replace sheva. Then we can really talk about genuine attacking potential. Alright, better get back to CM

Totti is better then ronaldinho,though man disagree.
but we got a jewel named kaka...so we dont need him.

that wud be great but can u really see Roma selling him it would be like us selling maldini and they would put a really big price tag on him like u sed bout 23 million euros.

Totti wont leave roma, unless he has another arguement about the sides tranfers?

sheva 4ever is right we have KAKA.
no one can replace sheva not even henry in my view if sheva leaves we need to change the formation.

he`s never going to leave As.Roma ..

Never say never. I remember some years ago people were saying that Nesta would NEVER leave Lazio. Guess where he's playing today?

That was different wasnt it? i thought Lazio had to sell players to get money.

You're probably right, Kaka1899. But you never can tell. who knows, roma might be cash strapped one day, or totti might have a bust-up with spalleti, or maybe he would state his desire to move to milan for "famlily reasons" sound familiar? all i'm saying is that in football, anything is possible. although in this case, very improbable.
