Despite not having the iconic status of Francesco Totti, Garcia made an impressive start with Roma. The team remained undefeated since the beginning of the season, winning all their matches.

The partnership between Garcia and Gervinho has garnered support from fans, and there is a growing dream among supporters to clinch the Scudetto.
Defender Mehdi Benatia credited the team’s style of play to the coach’s ideas.

Notably, Garcia successfully managed to bench Totti for a match, leading to a victory, showcasing his influence and decision-making prowess.
The positive start to the season and the team’s undefeated streak under Garcia’s leadership have fueled optimism and aspirations of winning the Serie A title among AS Roma supporters.
