    African Cup Of Nations 2008

    I have not really been paying that much attention to this tournamment but i see some snippets here and there. The 1 thing that I have noticed is the refereees do not care if you kill each other on the field. No way is he giving red cards for a tackle he feels is a sissy tackle. I am sure I...

    Serie A: Juventus vs Cagliari [Feb 3rd, 2008]

    Bojinov, Ledesma, Konnan, Axel etc all have pace and power and that is a preequisite of every Zeman side. Zeman concentrates on fitness and attacking football and leaves defence to the gods . Nedved is 35, Dp is 33, under Lippi they were 5 years younger and could do more than they can now and...

    Serie A: Juventus vs Cagliari [Feb 3rd, 2008]

    Thats a given but how long is the world gonna wait for Fiorentina? Are you actually telling me that our squad is good enough to play the kind of football that you and I like? Are you telling me that everything is Ranieri's fault? What does it say about a team if they cannot carry Molinaro...

    Deco

    I am yet to see a great player that has been touted on here that has not been rejected. I am not even sure what you guys want. You cry out for creativity and you have 1 that has creativity coming out of his ears and you say no. Dont wanna alarm ya but i read on yahoo that we are interested...

    Mascherano rumor again

    Why oh why oh why would a Juventus fan want us to splash out £18m for a player that does not score goals or remotely creative? I dont see anything reasonable in wanting Mascherano at Juventus. So he comes here for that amount and is paired with either Zanetti or Sissoko now how is that...

    Serie A: Juventus vs Cagliari [Feb 3rd, 2008]

    Roma, Inter, Milan and Fiorentina have decent squads, in fact Roma has not had a squad as good as this in a long time but Spalletti refuses to make good use of it. The likes of Guily, Cicinho and Vucinic are criminally undersused. Milan have a good squad, old possibly but they need someone to...

    Raffaele Palladino

    Then you my friend have never seen Phil Neville do his lollipop step overs to try and dribble past people. I swear if I was a referee and Phil neville did that in my game I would book him for attempting it

    Greatest player of all time and why

    The Brazil 1982 team is my favourite all time XI. I would not call Zico the standout talent , he was a key player possibly the best of them but not by a lot as Junior, Cerezo, Falcao, Socrates were all excellent players. Maradona would always be my all time favorite player but Zidane is...

    [ENG] Premiership 2007/2008

    Great acqusitions indeed but they need to find a way to get rid of Lee Young_pyo but I dont see that happening for financial reasons. Fergie is easily outsmarted tactically so that is not news there. Adebayor has done a superb job for arsenal that in my view and those of others, he is the...

    Serie A: Juventus vs Cagliari [Feb 3rd, 2008]

    You are quite right there, the rushed substitutions are stupid. I still maintain if the players need a manager to beat the last placed team then they themselves are not worth a damn. Chelsea don't really have a manager and have been beating the teams they should beat quite comfortably cos...

    Official Azzurri (Italy) Euro 2008 Thread

    Palladino is in there because he played for him at Livorno. Del Piero more or less cooked his own goose when he said he would not play as a right sided midfielder cos Donadoni like most disciples of sacchi are people that keep malice. Aquilani has not played much and he calls him up as for...

    Serie A: Juventus vs Cagliari [Feb 3rd, 2008]

    Andy Vinman and Lion, I dont have to see the game to be frustrated that a team that is 3rd in the league cannot beat the bottom placed team. Do i continue to blame, Capello, Deshamps and Ranieri for every performance from a bunch of players that earn more in a week than most people do in a...

    Serie A: Juventus vs Cagliari [Feb 3rd, 2008]

    I did not see the game but Cagliari is officially the worst team in SerieA so I dont see what you need a coach to make Juventus beat them at home. All the usual crap from the same ppl you read about in this forum blaming Morinaro, Ranieri and giving countless excuses for the ineffectual Tiago...

    Serie A: Livorno vs Juventus [Jan 27 2008]

    I think too many people on here are looking at it as the great Juventus totally ignoring the personnel. This is the worst group we have had in close to 15 years imo and if we are being totally honest if this group were playing against teams 10 or 15 years ago in serieA then we would be around...

    [ITA] Coppa Italia 2007/2008

    It could be for a number of reasons, it could be that the manager would prefer him to be on the bench for away matches and he does not want that or he has no character and only performs well when the crowd are cheering him. Or it could be that he gets injured whenever Sampdoria have to play a...

    [ITA] Coppa Italia 2007/2008

    I just read that Cassano is going to miss the Roma game with a back injury. I have to say I was mighty suspicious when he missed the game against us and then played on tuesday against Roma in the cup at HOME citing muscular problems. Then he plays against Siena at HOME on saturday and now...
