AS Roma’s Italy international Daniele De Rossi retained the top spot in the FTBL ranking of Italian midfielders after yesterday’s 3:0 trashing of CSKA Sofia in the Europa League, yet his score still fell below the 100-point mark after Italy’s game against France was dropped from his Last Five.

Nonetheless, Rossi will have a good chance of pushing his score back beyond 100 points when Roma take on No. 4 Parma in Serie A action this coming Sunday: he will face a plank of just 4.27 rating points to beat in the FTBL system, which means a draw will be enough. Roma have won 7 of their last 10 games against Parma.
