Media View: Perotti takes plaudits for Pescara performance

Newws

See which Roma player the newspapers picked out for special praise following Sunday's narrow victory over Pescara...

Corriere della Sera: Diego Perotti 7.5

"After his rabona and frank admission, he consistently supplied Edin Dzeko (two goals, one wasted chance), won and converted the resulting spot-kick. Unselfish is his middle name."

Corriere dello Sport: Perotti 7.5

"The man who lays the groundwork. No rabonas this time but his two assists prised open the Pescara backline, before he added another penalty (which he won). That's 12 out of 12 for his career and half a dozen alone this season. He's really becoming the focal point of this Roma side."

La Gazzetta dello Sport: Perotti 7.5

"Balletic movements on the ball and he beats players 1v1 for fun - his speciality. He also scored, laid on two and sprinkled a whole lot of magic on the contest."

Tuttosport: Dzeko 7.5

"The Midas touch. Five goals in three games across Europe and Serie A. He's pulled clear of Andrea Belotti and, with Mauro Icardi still to play, has moved back to the top of the Serie A scoring charts with 12 goals."

Il Tempo: Perotti 7.5

"He put Dzeko in the spot-light early doors by setting up two goals, before taking apart Davide Vitturini who just couldn't keep him quiet. Won and converted the match-winning penalty."

Leggo: Dzeko 7.5

"Two goals in the space of four minutes to make it 17 in 20 games (better than Gabriel Batistuta). The Bosnian led from the front for Roma, even battling for the ball a long way from the opposition goal."

Il Messaggero: Perotti 7.5

"He produced two assists for Dzeko. Won and scored the penalty to make it 3-1. He did everything required of him. Cool-headed."
