The likes of Amuari, Iquainta, Deigo, Melo etal can all do a decent job for a midtable club without drawing much flak but once they play for a big club aspiring to win the league they all would stand exposed with in few matches as happened last season. Del Neiris for all his midtable experience...

Catennaccio was dead even since the concept of playing a libero was wiped off from football...Also catenaccio in the crude sense also stresses more on zonal marking as much as man marking. Modern day catennaccios, played by Capello, Cuper, Hitzfeld and Sir Alex(against Barcelona and Arsenal) is...

Villa has now gone for £34.5M, which appears nominal but last season he would've cost atleast 20-25 more - the transfer market appears stable and wont shoot up before Real Madrid starts flirting around. Bottomline - either its Dzeko, Higuain or Di Maria..they all would be available at the right...

Milito, what a player! fecking hell...

This Milito is seriously underrated, A decent WC he would deserve Ballon D'o ahead of Messi. How much was spent on Amauri when Juve board could've got Milito easily then?

The pitch looks horribly shite...All players are slipping whenever they take a longish stride.

Nah, he's a dangerously insane, I can foresee both Demechilles and Robben being kicked out quickly and Bayern reduced to 9 men. Maureen's mobsters are more cleverer than bavarian muppets in getting away with fouls. But these kinda referees can give soft penalities and ruin the game in half an hour.

Had Rubbery bloke been eligible to play in the final it should've been be 50-50...now its already 60-40 in Inter's favour, with Robben being the lone threat. Inter have too much quality on the wings...Chivu, Zanetti and Maicon...Robben alone cannot penetrate. Had it been a two legged tie with or...

I dont like Germans leagues and their league isn't worth three spots to start with forget about adding one on to that. Even if Inter wins and the coefficients saved for this season, dont think any other teams from the Serie A can cut it out in both Europa and CL in the next two...

I thought this appointment was bit hasty decision to appoint this bloke, it should backfire. There is still plenty of time to choose a reputed manager frp,, gone are the days of Lippi, Capello, Trap and Sacchi..... like it or not the best Italian manager in the Universe is the great Roberto...

Ranieri could be better than Pelligrini in stealing knickers and may be in stitching shoes, but any manager with a coaching badge is always better Ranieri or atleast on par with him. Imagine $300M spent and Perez appointing Ranieri last season, he would taken the team to relegation zone just...

:lol:

The problem being Ranieri, Ferrara and Zacchoreni have all instilled the loser mentality in the team, the hangover cannot be overcome until a large section is rebuilt from the scratch. Its a mental barrier and it requires a coach with strong man management stills ala Fergie, Pep, Capello or...

Its not working

If the board is looking for an improvement over Zacch then they have got their man. Overall he's a stop gap arrangement, Juve needs to look for some one more reputed once the CL spot for the next two seasons becomes consistent. All the best Del neiri I know you are another Ranieri in the...
