Hopefully we can reel Lazio and Roma in now and win the Europa League

Lazio second and Napoli third by season's end.

What I like about Troisi is his ability to cover ground quickly. Both his goals, especially the first, on replay show him beating players to the ball who were closer to it than him. Well all I know is that for his second goal he did shiraz all apparently. He did the most crucial thing, as when the ...

Vidal worked hard and was decisive in killing the game.
He turned many balls over, but is progressing.

Pogba's goal was similar to his half volley last season against Napoli in Torino.
Both him and Vidal enjoy league games against Napoli.

Can't wait for this one.
Any final is a hotly anticipated tie particularly when its against a side we have a strong rivalry with.

El Pibe D'Oro wrote:That Peres goal will take some beating in the goal of the season stakes

Added value for the goal is he beat Pogba, Vidal and Evra.
All 3 great players in their own right.

Benitez needs to have a good think

He's a cup coach not a league coach.

Very sad news re Insigne blowing out his knee.

ACL recon completed over night.

I guess Roma fans would know what it feels like to be a Brazilian fan after that WC semi against Germany.......... :shock: :oops: What was your thought process when you decided to make this topic a day before your team plays Real Madrid? Roma have often crashed to heavy defeats for some reason. The...

No crisis yet, but a lot of the goodwill bought by last season will quickly be eroded if it continues with Cairo being booed and Larrondo too

Was the picture better quality then RAI?

We have a tough finish - Napoli, Inter and Verona away. Better hope its sewn up beforehand :wink: Im looking forward to this coming season regardless of the doomsdayers who say the Serie A is of an ordinary standard. Watching many games of both the EPL and Serie A last season i can honestly say eve...

And a Serie A record, 99 points :D Good to see Conte has a sense of humour putting Osvaldo on away at Roma. All worked out well for him, I just hope Prandelli doesn't get any ideas from that goal. Relegation decided: Sassuolo and Chievo stay up, Catania, Bologna and Livorno all down. All that's lef...

That Milan strip looks great but very different to the ones I've seen in the stores. The Milan 3rd looks like a faded Fluro yellow with dark green. Terrible!! In real life.

Scudetto #32 Campioni D'Italia

Not the prettiest performance, but we're through to the last four. Pirlo is simply a magician with free kicks - I'm more confident when he has a free kick than a penalty. He's kept up his record of every goal of his being a free kick. Last time he scored from open play was April 2012, about 13 goal...

Juventino wrote:Three more wins...

I just hope its won away in Rome, for personal reasons

Win No 15 at home this season, and Parma's run ended. But it was a close one. I can't believe Molinaro of all people scored a bloody volley, and he could have easily finished with a hattrick. Even Marchioni played well, Amauri was another story. I felt bad for him getting sent off. Just glad I didn...

Juventino wrote:Was very crucial to get the win, it pretty much wraps up the Scudetto and should allow for greater focus on the Europa League.

Plenty of points up for grabs yet. Certainly not over.

That was 100% a penalty, any decent ref would have given that. Pirlo deliberately stuck his leg out to take him down, clear contact and no ball = penalty. Of course I am seeing it through my granata tinted glasses, but really, no excuse to miss a clear cut penalty like that and then follow up with ...

Video of the goal and pen appeal.

Very happy to collect 3 points this morning thanks to the brilliance of Tevez. Could of been a different story had a late pen been given for clear contact. Just happy El Kaddouri took an extra step before collapsing, not stumbling. Had he gone down on the contact or his stride looked too have been e...

Great balls delivered for both goals by Verona and we simply were not good enough in the air.

It was a beautiful win. Showed we're a bit better than Inter. About 26 points better :D Great to see Inter where they belong and were prior to Calcopoli, they are lucky they have Handanovic. Great game, this Inter side minus Handanovic's heroics would of been buried after the first few minutes of t...

Wow thats a bit harsh. You do know they are still in champions league this year dont you and have quite a few injuries? If we can get our defence up and running we should be very competative next year! They will be knocked out by Atletico. They won't qualify for next season. They won't buy any play...

Allegri sacked. Thank God hopefully we can find someone better and bring some stability a and some better defenders. Seedorf is now coach.

I'm amazed the truth hasn't come out yet.
