I'm up in arms when it happens 20min into the World Cup final or plenty other times when the game is at stake. But for once I don't really care, we had nothing left. And the tackle didn't injure Pele, he got up and kept playing. And the suspension only affects a competition we're out of anyway. So it's basically inconsequential.This one's on the house, Camo.

The suspension will take effect next season, just to let you know.

I missed the game and something was tellling me that we weren't going to go through , I just couldn't see it happening , what's important is that we went out with some pride against a team that is in all honesty far superior than us at the moment .

The only thing that annoyed me was that penalty because it looked like anything but a hand ball . Who the fuck was this new guy Balotelli ? was he that good or just lucky ? Or was our defense pure shit as usual ?

Del piero's free kick was brilliant , wasn't Iaquinta's goal offside though ?
One last question ; did we play good enough to win or did it look like inter was going to win from the start ?
After the third goal Juve lost concentration and couldn't create a single opportunity on goal.

I don't know if we deserved to win, but we conceded a stupid penalty, and goal because of Biri's error. If these two didn't happen, I mean giving them these 2 free opportunities, everything would have been different, we could even win this game, leave qualifying, WIN!
The first goal shouldn't have been valid since Balotelli controled the ball with his left hand. I was pretty upset about it, none of the Juventus players said anything from what I saw and the referee let the goal stand.

well just like swag said i wouldn't give this game much thought because it is the coppa and i would like us to focus on getting that CL spot and doing well in the league overall.

just a few thougths:

-2nd team or not, mancini set out his whole squad to play their usual game and i saw that all of this season who ever is playing. They are a very tough team, and its obvious that we can't match them.

-Although Ranieri could thrown more people upfront but he had a good formation to start with and it was just individual mistakes that lead to that result. In the first hald we actually were the better team they just scored from our mistakes. The team's performance went down and another mistake killed us.

Football is a game of chances and they took their's very well. Neddy had an easy chance in the beginning of the second half that could've changed alot and then there that save from toldo.

Lets just focus on the league, felt bad for about 1 hour about the game and then got over it. Just like every year.

We were without, Buffon, Zebina, Andrade, Chiellini and Camoranesi who are starting 11 then we also without players like Marcchionni who are in rotation system. Its not like Ranieri has a squad full of uninjured world class players now does he.
He is doing alright. Not brilliantly but alright. He has a tough task. And in game he has to make some really tough calls. Yesterday I wanted both Camo and Trezeguet to come in but I swear I wasn't sure who to replace.
Although Salehamdizic wasn't doing much but Nedved got tired. If Nedved wasn't tired I would have tried Molinaro, Nocerino out, where Salehamdicix fills in for Molinaro and Camo goes to the right. Del Piero drops behind strikers of Iaquinta and Trezeguet, then replace Neddy with Palladino.
But thats me sitting at home I don't know hows the atmosphere at the bench or at the training centre.

Lets not be harsh that we got owned by a second line Inter but they weren't a second line, they were more of a first 11 than us. Let alone their bench can ba a frist 11 to any strong team. Not only that they needed a stupid penalty call for them to get hold of the match while keeping Pepe on the field when he deserved at least a second yellow in many occassions.

Few things:

1) Nedved's game was absolutely criminal!! he was invisible the whole time he was in then to make it worse he fukd up one of our best chances after all his invisibility. I mean Palla was on for a couple but was involved in the start of 2 decent plays one fumbled by Trez and one almost similar set of events to the 3rd Livorno goal

2) Ive been against the Sissoko move coz he's no drastic change from Nocerino in terms of passing and damn it we need some one who can pass in midfield!! Il Capitano is everywhere trying to help with the lack of creativity but he needs help.. cant the management see this! Anyway Forza Del Piero

3) Who the hell gave us that Belardi dude. Everytime theres a shot on goal, u have to hold your breath. Even if he came for free, we were ripped off

We need to get better GK, because anyone can score against Belardi. He is not good enough for Juve.
And we need fucking CM, who could pass. I have a felling that Tiago could help us yesterday. I also agree with Brixity, Nedved didn't show a lot. He is getting older and we need a substitution for him. ASAP
