I read on Football Italia that Baggio is going to have a knee operation and will miss the start of the season, so anybody that's interested can read about this on www.channel4.com/footballitalia (I'm too lazy to copy and paste it at the moment, maybe I'll do it later :D).

A late equaliser from Raul Gonzalez enabled Brescia Calcio to secure a 3-2 aggregate victory against FC Gloria 1922 Bistrita and a place in the third round of the UEFA Intertoto Cup. Positive start Trailing 2-1 from the first leg, the Romanian side began brightly and came close to drawing...

Hello all :) This is Stuart, formerly known as -Fantasista-. As some of you may already know, I unfortunately forgot my password and since Martin is on vacation and no-one else knows what to do, I was forced to get a new account :down: Anyways, I was just letting you guys know this so that you...

Sacked Real Madrid boss Vicente Del Bosque says he would relish the chance to take charge of an Italian club. "I’ve never shared the distorted opinion of many Spanish people when it comes to Italian football," he said. "You have some great players in Serie A and I would love the...

Inter could sell Fabio Cannavaro to a Spanish side in order to raise funds for £10m Christian Chivu. The surprise reports emerged over the weekend in Italy, with rumours that Real Madrid and Barcelona had requested the defender. Cannavaro only joined Inter last summer from Parma and is...

There is absolutely no reason why Italy cannot win next year's European Championships. This may catch some by surprise in the wake of the Azzuri showing in last year's World Cup, even though too many people preferred to overlook the side's shortcomings, choosing instead to blame the ref...

Giovanni Trapattoni believes the 2002 World Cup could have ended differently with the help of two Chievo players. The Azzurri crashed out of the tournament to a Golden Goal against South Korea in the Second Round of the competition. "I only have one regret," revealed the Azzurri boss...

A win in this game would take us another step closer to Euro 2004. Any idea of when the squad will be named, and what's the probable starting lineup? PS. Trap, please call up Tacchinardi, and be sure to start Zambrotta and Del Piero.

We all know that the poorer and less fortunate countries find it very hard to produce world class national teams, but I am making this thread so that we can talk about smaller nations' NTs. I for one, live in a very small country (Barbados), and our NT has never qualified for a major...

It may be a little early, but there will surely be some friendly matches this summer and if anyone has schedules for them then they can be posted here.

Hey guys. There's not alot of Juve supporters where I'm from, and I'm getting sick and tired of having to chat with anti-Italian geezers so if anyone wants to have a convo with me on Messenger that would be greatly appreciated :cheesy: Maybe some of us could have a big four-person conversation...

Well, there's only 90 more minutes to be played in Serie A this season, so I've decided to start the Team of the Year thread a bit early. Please post your Starting XI and subs from this year's season.

Can someone please update me on Juve's injury situation? Buffon has apparently suffered a shoulder injury and Birindelli is having muscular problems. Can someone please verify whether or not these two key players will be fit for the Champions League finals on the 28th of May?

Post your candidates for the best forward of season 2002/03 here.

Read the title and you'll know what's going on. Post who you think have been the best defensive, right, left and attacking midfielders from 2002-2003.

Post who you think have been the best right backs, centre backs and left backs this term.

Now that the end of season is nearing, I think it's time to restart these "Best Player" threads so that we can talk about who has been best in what position this season. N.B. Your ratings shouldn't be on favourite players or players that you have seen play well in the past, but on how players...

Hey guys. Primo has brought to my attention the prospect of playing with a 3-1-4-2 formation and I actually think that this would be a very good idea for next season. If Moggi makes the right purchases then this scheme could be very successful and I think that it would enable us to play more...

Talk about anything relating to cricket here in this thread :)
