The Seria A Thread

Me too, you would have to make a bad error to not eat well there! Although saying that, last time I was there as a tourist, there’s the shopping mall gran remo’s food court that had little to offer imo, I opted for old wild west outside instead. Besides this one occasion, definitely one of the best places to mangiare. :wink:

  • Coaches “advisor” mouths off about no support from anyone at club saying no one is supporting him and he’s never met the owner.
  • Coach said he never said any of that ( et tu ) and threatens to take legal action.
  • Coaches “advisor” resigns ( from what nobody knows )
  • Today was a must win game or he’s gone.
  • We go down 2-0 to the last place team then come back & win 3-2
  • People are still raging and want to sack him anyway.

The circus continues at AC Milan.

Juventus’ 0-4 loss to atalanta was the worst defeat in 58 years apparently. Motta urged Vlahovic to pouch a goal when he was put on late in the game, shortly after Vlahovic gave away the ball and atalanta got their fourth, I guess Motta didn’t specify which side! :joy:

Thiago Motta has been let go from Juventus manager role, enter Croatian Igor Tudor who has experience in Italy with Udinese, Verona, Lazio and vice manager role with Juventus together with Andrea Pirlo.

Now that I’ve slightly calmed down after wanting to put my foot through my TV the past few days at the disgraceful performance of the Azzurri I want to say the only players that looked like they gave a fuck were Kean & Tonali.

Tonali looks amazing every time I see him.

Coppa Italia semi final game.

Well we suck against everyone except Inter. Typical. 4-1 on aggregate and we play the winner of Bologna v Empoli.

It would be nice if Roma could kick them while they’re down this weekend. Suddenly we are in touching distance of Lazio, Juve and Bologna.

From a Milan winter to Perth in February. Someone might fucking die!

If they start at 8pm or 9pm, you’d think the time is comparable to an earlier start in Italy. The playing conditions at that hour might be manageable. I’m surprised the clubs are considering going all the way over here for a league game, though. The travel will take it out of them.

Italian league games should be played in Italy. I really hate this next step of commercialisation of the game to playing league fixtures abroad (and yes I know theyve got a reason this time to not play it in Milan but rather it be played nearby).

Surely they’ll just flirt with Perth and end up taking the cash in Saudi Arabia or Qatar?

I never would have believed it after the start we had. A win today vs Fiorentina has Roma equal with Juve in fourth position. Claudio Ranieri is truly something special. Roma is unbeaten in 19 games and currently in contention for Champions League although there are still a few tough games ahead (Atalanta, Milan and Torino).

Pippo Inzaghi has managed Pisa into Serie A. Amazing since he has managed to achieve promotion with Venezia and Benevento.

Sassuolo is the other guaranteed promotion. The third promotion is decided by playoff between 3rd to 8th place.

I’m not flying 6 hours for that to be honest.

I thought I was going to be a hero here… reparteeing Mr Rooney’s post, sharing some decent intel, and having Jubal personally throw me an internet party for remembering how to properly use the quote function.

Alas…

Anyway, start booking those flights, those interested. (At a hunch, I’m guessing this will be a Milan home game).
