so RAI decided to ban the "moviola" on their shows because it created to much controversy and heated debates. They will just show the match highlights and an expert will analyze the play and no comments will be made later.

A bit late huh. How much we had to endure in the past and now :mute: when inter score on a 5m offside? :p

I bet that when we score and DP's birdie is offside by 3mm they'll have a 30min debate about it. :sigh:

Fuck 'em, they can't censor what has happened, this is an age of cameras and other technology, they can't pretend stuff doesn't happen. If RAI don't show it then someone else will. If pathetic decisions and events happen it is up to people to make it clear.

ROME (AFP) – Inter Milan captain Javier Zanetti has been awarded the Premio Scirea by Italian journalists, it was announced on Monday.
The award has been running yearly since 1992 and is given to players over 30 who have had an "exemplary career".
For the first time this season it was also open to foreign players who have been plying their trade in Serie A for at least 10 years and Argentine Zanetti thus became the first foreign winner.
The honour is named after Gaetano Scirea, the legendary former Juventus sweeper, who spent 14 years at the Italian giants after beginning his career at Atalanta.
The former Juventus and Italy captain died in a car accident in Poland in 1989 when he was the assistant coach at Juve under Dino Zoff.
Zanetti polled 231 of the 371 votes to join the likes of Franco Baresi, Roberto Baggio, Paolo Maldini, Gianfranco Zola and Alessandro Del Piero as winners of the award.

Zeman: 'Italy has regressed’
Monday 26 July, 2010
Foggia’s new Coach, the outspoken Zdenek Zeman, believes Italians have stopped teaching football properly.

The Azzurri were humiliated at the World Cup in South Africa this summer, receiving their marching orders in the group stages.

Interviewed in Il Corriere dello Sport, Zeman said: “I knew that Italy would do badly. Italian football finds itself in crisis.

“In Serie A today there isn’t a Coach who has got my results or who has added value to players like I did.

“I do what I always do. I say what I think. Today a Coach is no longer chosen for his competency, but out of convenience.

“I see staff with 15 collaborators, the Coach is someone because he is someone responsible. In clubs today the person responsible for the marketing is more important than the Coach.”

When asked about his own objectives for Foggia, Zeman simply said: “To teach how to play football.”


:shocked2:

I agree with what Zeman said, apart from the stuff that he claimed about himself.

Italian football is in crisis but whenever somebody comes out to admit it, the person is attacked.

That shows it's true.

Zeman. What exactly has he accomplished in Serie A?

Apart from that, he sort of has a point. The achievements of the current crop of Serie A coaches isn't exactly high, but you have some young ones like Mihajlović and Allegri who show some promise.

Does it lol? :shifty: So if you agree with it then it is true, and if you disagree then it is also true?

Zeman was once a good coach, but he will always be an attention seeking asshole. People actually listen to this guy?

The strength of Roma,Lazio,Milan and Juve has gone down but the other teams like Napoli,Samp,Genoa and Palermo have improved in recent years.


Translate league for into EL and CL form and we'd be grand, along with marketing and stadia
