CAMPIONATO FALSATO!!!

I don't quite see why there seems to be the idea that Zaza and Berardi are in competition for a place at Juve. Juve are obviously going to need another centre-forward if (when) Llorente leaves this summer and that points to Zaza. It is less clear how Berardi fits into Juve's current...

80-90% chance of Zaza at Juve next season, according to Zaza's agent. http://www.calciomercato.com/news/agente-zaza-al-90-va-alla-juventus-144882

Yeah, he's not looking sharp at all just now. Can see it being quite hard for Monaco to get rid of him this summer, unless they accept a very low fee and Falcao takes a huge pay-cut.

:agree:

Of course. I was just commenting on Atletico's mistake for Barca's goal. The Atletico defensive line should have been up around the edge of the penalty box, but they were way back inside the penalty area.

Won't necessarily be pay rises, but there could be some fairly hefty bonus payments due to players.

:boh: Highlighting that he's still a kid that gets guided by senior players at Juve?

A classic quote/article to rile fans up. Platini is clearly talking in terms of marketability and no-one has the marketability of Messi and Ronaldo just now. Platini is not passing comment on the ability of the players.

And Man Utd didn't really want to do that, I don't think. Word of the deal was broken in Holland, so Man Utd felt they had to confirm it.

Defence? Atletico were so deep there that Messi scored from comfortably inside the box without ever having to seriously face the defence. Playing that deep is very dangerous against any team.

Serves them right for appointing Zeman (twice).

Yeah, I'm sure Juve will get Dr Agricola on the case.

Certainly this summer if Juve are spending a fair bit on Dybala.

:yawn:

As a Llorente fan, I would say it's too big a wage for fourth striker. Add to that that Llorente doesn't appear to perform well when not playing continuously and selling him seems the obvious option. - - - Updated - - - And I think Zaza looks rather useful. Not sure I'd spend 15m on him, though.

I was almost right on Campo de Fiori last time I was in Rome. Won't take you much more than half an hour at a brisk pace if you head from there towards the Vatican and then up to the ground. Bars on route to break the march up as well. Make sure and head to the Drunken Ship in Campo de Fiori...

Where are you staying? I've just tended to wander back down towards Ottaviano and then jump in a taxi if I couldn't be arsed walking further or if it was late enough the subway was shut.

He's too much of a risk-taker. That means there will be several times per season where he will make major mistakes. He also needs to prove he can continue to be brilliant as he loses his athleticism. So come back in 10-12 years and we might have an answer.
