Not really. They weren't much good in 13/14, but they were a solid side for a few years before that under Reja and Petkovic. They are playing a more attractive style of football just now than they did back then, though.

So have Roma for a lot of the time.

This is quite the obsession you seem to have with me. You can control it when sober, apparently, but just can't stop thinking about me when you are intoxicated.

Yes and no. The results he's with the players at his disposal are phenomenal. When you watch the games, though, you can't help but feel that he is simply making a mockery of modern football. If teams went back to old-fashioned basics like having defenders who could be relied on to concentrate...

Verona fans seem more interested in the coppa than most. Couple of years ago (the season they got promoted) they took a huge support to San Siro:

Just seems dangerous. What's to stop you absent mindedly putting your slipper on only to realise you have, in fact, got your foot stuck in the cat?

Contract extension for Ash Taylor until 2017. He's been outstanding since settling in to the team. Utterly dominant physical presence, reasonably mobile, good footballer. - - - Updated - - - We are getting very close to a situation where there is real stability and the potential to build a...

I had no idea Roma would get so excited about managing to draw with Lazio.

:cry:

Good player. Don't know why Juve would want/need him, though.

Indeed. We can see in South America how dull football is these days without South American talent.

You sure that Juve aren't in fact being linked with a move for the Paulinho that used to play for Livorno?

:disagree:

That was my first thought. In addition to the normal reluctance to give a decision in those circumstances, the fact that it was Buffon he had to penalise made it even easier to chicken out. - - - Updated - - - Just that there is an ongoing investigation from UEFA as to whether Roma have...

:tuttosport:

Thanks, but not looking to spend that much.

Anyone out there want to advise me as to what phone to get (or not get)?

Was during the second half. Chiellini for some reason hooked the ball back to Buffon from about 40 yards out. Napoli players complained about it at the time and it looked to me like they had a valid case.

He lost his way once he didn't have Allegri as his coach. If Juve signed Nocerino, Allegri would get the best out of him and Juve could then cash in on Vidal. There's also the small matter of Candreva having become a very good player. I don't think anyone could reasonably suggest he isn't...

A group of Celtic fans took out a full-page advertisement in a paper yesterday to publish this: Pretty funny, but also a rather good summary of the situation. Could all be pretty tense in Glasgow in a couple of weeks for the League Cup semi's. Celtic and New Rangers fans will be gearing up...
