  1. Board & Management

    ppl wishing john elkann was fighting this prolly weren't around/don't remember 2006. don't get your hopes up.
  2. Pavel Nedved

    Imagine thinking Nedved has no responsibility in this mess. Hilarious. Then again braindead fandom and objectivity/logic are usually very far from each other. Little self reflection would be nice. If there's a constant smell of shit around you, you ought to check the sole of your shoes. As...
  3. Massimiliano Allegri

    Thinking that bringing in another coach would change much is wishful at best. The biggest issue by far is our players' quality and the lack of strategic approach in team building. We go for "deals" and we even think we are so fckin smart to get "good" players on the cheap. Then reality hits in...
  4. Alberto Aquilani - M C - Liverpool

    Exactly. As much as I like Marchisio, his performances have yet to warrant an automatic starting spot. Let him earn that with consistently good displays. Even though Marchisio is my fav of the four, if we fare better with let's say an Aquilani-Melo midfield, so be it.
  5. Alberto Aquilani - M C - Liverpool

    Aquilani-Marchisio indeed sounds good but I'm willing to bet that Delneri will always field one of Sissoko or Melo in the middle of the pitch. That being said, I do hope we get Aquilani as a little competition never hurts and would make Marchisio work even harder. Not to mention that with our...
  6. Balázs Dzsudzsák - AM L - PSV

    I know him well. I am admittedly biased - we're from the same country after all - therefore I'd like him here but not sure that he'd be a right fit. After watching him for three years in PSV, I firmly believe he's better than Afellay who seems to be liked by many around here (not by me, though)...
  7. Capitano Giorgio Chiellini

    I read many posts on these forums about him being a liability because of his passes, most recently in the Serie A thread. Sure, he's not a good passer. What I don't understand is, why does a CB essentially have to be a great passer? I want my CB to defend well, first and foremost. Chiellini...
  8. Felipe Melo

    Well, I saw Montero quite a bit but I do admit that my memory is not serving me the way it should. Still, I remember that Montero lost his calm many times. I am sure you also remember some useless fouls from him which did not help us back then to say the least. Being shown a red card always gets...
  9. Felipe Melo

    Melo is the kind of player you hate if he plays for the opposition while admire if he's on your team. In the long run, it never hurts to have a player like him, even if it means 2-3-4 red cards a year... Montero anyone? He was a serious headcase, was recklessly brutal, still, he was a fan...
  10. Felipe Melo

    I most certainly appreciate the fact that he did everything he could in order to go back to his club as quickly as possible.
  11. Christian Poulsen

    We can say the same thing for the previous year, when Poulsen was absolutely horrible. Sissoko was not only decent but arguably the best DM in the league then. Who was more valuable to the team, the Poulsen of last year, or the Sissoko of the year before? By the way, I don't have any...
  12. Calciopoli or Morattopoli.. inter fake orgasm

    the moment i am waiting for is approaching. let's say moggi wins his appeal. oh boy, johnny elkann will be shitting his pants. a whole world of juventini will be anxious to see him and blanc push for the revoked scudetti and the financial compensation. now that is when things will get hilarious...
  13. Jean-Claude Blanc Thread

    the fact that zaccheroni is doing worse than ferrara should be more than enough for this clown to step down. it just really shows how he has no clue when it comes to football. and this is just one of the horrible decisions he's made over the past few years.
  14. The Azzurrini (U21-20-19...) Thread

    To be fair, it needs to be mentioned that Koman Voli was born in Ukraine. His parents moved to Hungary when he was 1 or 2 cause his father got a job as a coach in Szombathely. He is seemingly ready for the Hungarian NT and Koeman (NT coach) should call him up asap. There is a big fuss in Hungary...
  15. The Azzurrini (U21-20-19...) Thread

    Hungary - Italy 2-0 (Nemeth 15., Koman 88.) We deserved the win, Italy, other than some clever runs by Santon and Balotelli were nothing special. They pushed through and through but lacked the last decisive touch. Koman clearly MoM, have no idea why he does not feature regularly for Bari. The...
