    Serie A 2024-25

    Delusional fans everywhere. The Inter fans are still holding the crown, though, even if some Juve fans are giving them a run for their money.

    Summer mercato thread 2025-26

    I'm not sure if Coman was a mistake. He left in 2015 when our team was packed. We got 7m for the loan and then additional 21m for a full transfer. 28m euro was an ok price back then for a player we hardly needed. Every big team sells this kind of players from time to time. I agree with you about...

    [Serie A] Juventus 2-0 Udinese [18th May, 2025 20:45 CEST]

    Venezia have an obligation to buy Nicolussi Caviglia, right? That's too bad. We could have activated him, Moggi style.

    Nico González

    It's written in the stars. Luiz will either win us the 4th place or lose it. A playmaker who cost 50+m, to finish the season with 0G/0A is unprecedented in our history. We've had our flops, but this tops them all. So he's either gonna score/assist the winner and redeems everything, or he gives...

    Serie A 2024-25

    This turned out to be a very interesting season, but mostly because everyone sucks. No matter who wins the scudetto, it's gonna be the worst result for a winner in the 3 pts era. The teams fighting for 4th place (Juve, Lazio, Fiorentina, Bologna, Milan) were competing who's gonna fuck up more...

    I asked for the three flops to score a decisive goal, and Nico did it tonight. Now Koop (will he be back?) or Douglas Luiz to bring us the win in Venice.

    Serie A 2024-25

    I know, but it should have ended at 97:30. The ref gave 7 minutes added time and after that I noticed only 30 seconds lost for an injury of a Lazio player. I don't know where did the ref find the remaining 2:30 minutes. Nobody was wasting time because both teams were going for the win. P.S: I...

    Manipulations are maybe happening here and there throughout the year. Maybe in round 16. But not tonight. The refs and the VAR were risking their careers, and maybe more, with a wrong call tonight. Imo, the foul by the Napoli player was clear and VAR had to call the ref. He checked too and he...

    Now this was something else. There was half a minute of extra added time, not three.

    It was a foul ,unfortunately. I was mad too, but it was a foul. And a penalty for Lazio in the 90th minute, with which Inter will probably lose the scudetto. You have to be trolling now.

    All the teams fighting for the 4th place are a joke.

    Ligue 1 2024-25

    We decided not to get Greenwood on loan, and he becomes Ligue 1 top scorer. Of course he does.

    Serie A 2024-25

    If it's just between us and Bologna, goal difference will be the decider, since both of our matches with Bologna were draws. We have a superior goal difference so if Juve and Bologna share the 4th place with 68 pts, we will most likely edge them and grab the last CL spot. If Juve, Bologna and...

    Serie A 2024-25

    Nah, I don't think that they manipulate offsides, at least not deliberately. One of the real loopholes might be penalty decisions. The referee could call a penalty, or miss a foul or handball and not give one. Then the VAR official has to make a subjective judgment: was it a clear and obvious...

    Serie A 2024-25

    I suppose it can be manipulated, but for that to happen, everyone in the VAR room, and anyone reviewing the footage from the cameras inside the VAR room, would have to be in on it. This probably fits the narrative of behind-the-scenes scheming and hidden agendas, but it's hard for me to swallow...

    @Turk_Bianconero Is Giuntoli trying to out-Marotta Marotta by collecting a commission for the same player twice?

    Yeah, memory fades faster than we’d like. In the past maybe two or three generations held on to key lessons, and then it slipped away unless it became part of religion or some national story. Today we’ve got films, the internet, endless archives, but attention spans are short. People are...

    La Liga 2024-25

    You all know that I'm not that hot for youngsters and I am skeptical when people get excited about a young player. That should give even more weight to what I am about to say. In my life I've seen only 5 footballers who were touched by God. Maradona, Messi, Zidane (I might be subjective here)...

    [Serie A] Juventus 2-0 Udinese [18th May, 2025 20:45 CEST]

    I said half, but I thought it's some 10%. 19% is brutal. And if we considered everyone that played for us this year, of the 29 players who got minutes, 7 were in serie C recently (some Anghele guy, and some Pugno too). 7/29, that's 24%. Was Fagioli also in serie C at some point in the last 4-5...

    Half of our squad was in a serie C team only recently.
