Not a bad player, from what I remember.

Has anyone made the Disastri joke yet? No? Disastri!

Honest question: does it get a lot of media coverage? It sure doesn't, in my neck of the woods. Case in point: a friend of mine, who's really into football, asked me the following question last Saturday. "Did you know there's a CWC going on right now?" Followed by: "Which teams are playing in...

I think you're confusing me with someone who cares about prize money for a friendly tournament.

I have to admit: I didn't expect the CWC to be this entertaining. I mean, I haven't seen a single second of it, but I am enjoying how people are getting worked up because of meaningless post-season friendlies. Games where we (have to) field players who aren't supposed to be here 2 months from now.

A big fat NO to Spalletti.

Is that a good or a bad thing?

I sometimes base my wine choices on the Gambero Rosso. And I've also stayed in a hotel that received a Gambero Rosso award as best 3 star hotel. But I've always made my own decisions in terms of gelato. :grin: But, looking at their tre coni list, apparently I have tried some of them unknowingly.

Grom :heart: Even if I always like trying new things, it's my go-to gelato place when I'm in Italy. Their straciatella is unrivalled imo.

It obviously should have been. And you'd think most people would have already understood that at the time. But you'd be wrong. I still remember all the brainiacs defending Giuntoli back then, simply because of them disliking hating Allegri. Idiots. So yeah, it should have happened in June 24...

Post-season friendlies. Such a great idea.

Europe just can't stop shooting itself in the foot.

Trophies in general? No. CL? Yes.

You're right. It was an absolutely terrible one.

Giuntoli, Motta and now Conte. That's quite the record.

Agree with pretty much everything here, but Torino has experienced a pretty significant increase in terms of tourism the past few years. Still one of the best cities to spend some time in though. On an unrelated note: Rehiring a previous coach almost never works out. So Conte not coming back...

The football I find enjoyable is the one where we win games/trophies.

I'd settle for "better than this season." Comfortable top 4 finish. Decent run in Europe (meaning last 16 or better). A Coppa win is always nice.

But it's the 2nd Giuntoli season that has now ended. A 2nd season that has been (far) worse than the 1st one.

He most certainly does.
