They just didn't show up.

They were lucky to be level at half time, upped their game for a wee while at the start of the second half, then switched off again.

They were clearly already thinking about Chelsea and weren't concentrated on the game at all.
If they don't win the league this season they will truly have thrown it away.

If Roma win win the league this season they will surely be one of the worst teams to ever win it.

And they will actually do well against Chelsea.

If only we had kept Ranieri for one more season we might have won the scudetto, probably would have sucked in Europe still tho.
I actually think it would be the opposite. We did well in Europe with him but I don't think we would've won the league because of what Alen mentioned before.


About the title race. If Milan can pull themselves up after that drubbing and the injuries to Nesta then they have a bigger chance than Roma. Roma as a team are weak mentally and having Ranieri there doesn't help and the face that they play Inter will a huge effect on their chances (losing focus and momentum after the game if they lose).

I really hope that Inter loses the scudetto. I know alot has to do with me hating them, but besides that, for the good of the calcio someone else should win the scudetto. As a Juventus fan when we were dominating the Serie A I did not care, but even then it was never like this.
After the calciopoli in 2006, all the big teams in Italy got hurt except inter. And while everyone was crippled in the market inter came on top. And everytime they win the scudetto they reinforce themselves more. If Milan can pull themselves together and win this weekend then they will be one point away from Inter. There after the most consistent team will win.

I really hope Roma start to loose points fast, they are closer to us and we have to aim to finish 3rd if we want the CL. With italian teams performances in europe I wouldn't be surprised if UEFA decides to reduce the number of positions given to italy from 4 to 3.

Nah, they won't. Calcio is simply dead.
It's still breathing. It will officially die if Milan win the scudetto and if the champion of Italy, after being given 100 penalties during the season, becomes a team that got destroyed 7:2 by Manchester United.
If that happens then go ahead and convince a non-serie A fan that:
1. The league doesn't suck.
2. The Italians don't cheat their way to the scudetto.

It's not breathing and it hasn't been since the Juve-Milan final in real terms.

It's old and tired, shit stadiums, corrupt as fuck and the technical beauty has been turned into a slow failure of a passing game.


In order to save Serie A there are three things needed:
Juve playing 4-2-3-1
Juve having the required defenders to play a 4-2-3-1
A new state of the art stadium.

If we are the innovater's we'll reap all the rewards. Maybe we might be 3rd in Serie A and win the CL, but for fuck sake we NEED a propper trophy.

No, they wont ;)
Chelsea will get the first goal within 20,25 minutes. After that :inter: will open up a bit, but they will be severly punished. I expect at least a two goal margin win by Chelsea. I dunno if that will be a good thing, bcuz :inter: will then focus on dominating serie a, and for sure get another Scudetto.
But that aspect of the future is still gloomy atm for me, KNOW THAT I HAVE SEEN THE FUTURE, but i didnt see it that far. :D

Much like when Man United destroy Serie A's second best team, the team that was only three points away from winning the whole thing and many think they should have.

And the second point, well just look at how people perceive calciopoli, Inter from the last few seasons and the Italian team.

Whoever is winning the league is dead/dying, someone other than those cunts could actually be refreshing for a change.
