    Official Azzurri (Italy) Euro 2008 Qualifier thread

    It seems Toni is out. I think most logical thing now is to play two strikers. For some reason, I dont think Lucarelli can make it at International level. I say Quagliarella, and Inzaghi looks most natural pair out of the lot. For me the key is midfield. This is where Azzurri clearly has...

    Allesandro Rosina

    The fact that Juve can't match Machester City's spending power. When Juve sees good player, of course, on financial terms, it can compete with the best. We may not outbid them, but if we can identify players who wants to play here (the part of your assertion, I totally agree with), then we can...

    That is absurd. Juve probably got more to spend Manchester City can dream of, but Juve is PLC, so it must protect shareholder interest, unlike Manchester City, which is being used by a corrupt politician as a way getting asylum in England. Having said that Rosina will worth every single cent...

    I am no Foggia expert, (lets be honest, I am sure not many people watched him play for Ascoli and Reggina), but I have seen him play couple of times prior to this season, and whilst not overly impressed I thought he saw enough of him to follow his career, and I don't think in anyway Foggia is...

    Official Azzurri (Italy) Euro 2008 Qualifier thread

    I think Chiellini should play, because France got abundance of speed with Anelka (Who I think would play), Henry, and Ribery. So it would be wise for Donadoni who can hold ground in physical terms with those French atheletes. But Canna is a must start. His experience, organization, and...

    [Serie A] Cagliari - Juventus [02/09/2007]

    I have said numerous times that I liked what Napoli did during Mercato. They didnt go out there and spent crazy sum, which they could have done, but rather, they focused on their needs, and more importantly youth players who can improve after this season. I am itching to see Lavezzi in full...

    [Serie A] Cagliari - Juventus [02/09/2007]

    Well, I think this was a great match to bring and test Palladino. As you will be well aware I am not one of those Palladino fans. But in spite of my scepticism about his "effectiveness" what Palladino do very well is he is good at carrying the ball, and take on defenders. He isnt quick, in...

    [Serie A] Cagliari - Juventus [02/09/2007]

    My problem with Zanetti is his not thinking quickly on the ball. He has to hold on to ball couple of times before he release it. And many passes, especially those to Neddy, were bad decisions, where Nedved was crunched by Pisano a lot of times. As bad as Almiron was last game, especially his...

    [Serie A] Cagliari - Juventus [02/09/2007]

    I am not too sure though. I definitely want veteran defender for at least cover by January, because Legro simply isnt good enough. I loved denco's analogy that even pigs can defend their food better!:lol: . But right now, we have the option of switching Chiellini to CB. The boy has...

    [Serie A] Cagliari - Juventus [02/09/2007]

    Couldnt have agreed more! I have no problem with those three individually but the as a collective unit, they don't complement each other. I dont know why Ranieri play 4-4-2 formation, because if you want to use that formation, you better have players who can beat opposition one vs one, which...

    Live commentary thread for any other match non-Juve related.

    The game finished 0-0, but it was lively game, I quite enjoyed it. What Walter Mazzarri tactically done was very interesting, especially way Sampdoria's trio, Volpi, Palombo and Del Vecchio closed down technically superior Lazio players. Those who impressed 1. Ziegler: Its very rare for a...

    [Serie A] Cagliari - Juventus [02/09/2007]

    Thanks for the info. I never knew it was a full transfer. I am somewhat mixed by this news. If Foggia was totally owned by Milan, we would not have any chance of getting him, but with Lazio, I am sure Lottio will listen to big dollars. However, Lottio has made a quite big reputation of being a...

    Lazio 0 - 0 Sampdoria In contrast to scoreline the game has been pretty lively. I like Walter Mazzarri. I think he is a terrific coach, and he will one day surely one of big side from Juve, Inter, Lazio and Milan. Sampdoria looks so much more organized and more sense of purpose in this team...

    [Serie A] Cagliari - Juventus [02/09/2007]

    First one almost surely not a penalty. Matri was backing in 3 times via his motion. You cant say when attackers uses his body, its being physical, when defenders retaliates in return, its penalty. That would be a clear double standard. Its was a case half dozen to the other in field, where...

    [Serie A] Cagliari - Juventus [02/09/2007]

    Collina one was probably match involving Roma. I cant remember the opposition but I was something like Vicenza or Venezia, I am not too sure though. With Roma down 1-0 heading into injury time, Collina saw two penalties to win the game 2-1. One of them was good, but the other was complete...

    [Serie A] Cagliari - Juventus [02/09/2007]

    It was awful performance by our players, but we looked heavy footed, especially Almiron and Nedved, so it is hard to tell whether this game is a trend or just mere one-off day. Important thing is that we won the game and we got 3 points. We will be all right at the end of season, and if we...

    Sebastian Giovinco

    If the venue wasnt soccer pitch, I bet Maicon would have been rested on the spot for child abuse.:D When Giovinco was lying down the floor, you feel like he is being really hurt because he is so sleight. I hope referee feels the same, and once he gets their respect, I can see him getting a lot...
