[ITA] Serie A 2012/2013 (35 Viewers)

[Gabriel]

I intend to follow English football the same way I did last season, by listening to the Guardian's Football Weekly podcast. Chelsea are evil, goals are overrated and international football should be scrapped.

Lol so true.

No I find United very interesting to watch with the rapist, Nani, Kagawa and co. Chelsea are also interesting with the likes of Mata, Hazard and Lampard. Tottenham despite losing Modric and VDV still have the likes of Bale and Dembele. City obviously with the likes of Silva, Nasri, Tevez and Aguero.

You look at Milan's current team, and who do you see, Montolivo? Pazzini? Nocerino?

The same goes for Roma and Inter. They just have such underwhelming teams nowadays.

That's pretty biased. You're talking about a team that just had Ibra, Thiago Silva and their legends last season. Milan are going through a transitional period. Why don't you talk about Juventus, Inter, Napoli and Roma?

Juventus: Buffon, Chiellini, Vidal, Pirlo, Vucinic, Giovinco
Inter: Handonvic, Zanetti, Cassano, Milito
Napoli: Inler, Hamsik, Cavani, Insigne
Roma: De Rossi, Totti, Lamela, Destro

Sure Serie A has dipped in terms of quality, but to say its a snooze fest is just biased. Juventus, Inter, Napoli and Roma have some interesting players to look out for, and match ups between those teams are always exciting. Fiorentina and Lazio have solid teams too.

People have different preferences, and that's okay. Not sure why people are having a go at Fred here

 

[Joe]

I understand that. I'm just trying to say its not a snooze fest.

Anyways, for the RAI Italia viewers, RAI will have 5 games this weekend.

Saturday: Palermo vs. Cagliari (12PM EST), Milan vs. Atalanta (2:45PM EST)
Sunday: Chievo vs. Lazio (6:30AM EST), Genoa vs. Juventus (Giostra del Gol, 9AM EST), Torino vs. Inter (2:45PM EST)

Can't wait.

Hidden agendas, at least I can just come out and say it, I don't like Fred because he is Arab.

 

[B3N]

three pages of response to a butthurt arsenal fan having a go at Serie A? I see Fred's getting good at trolling.

 

[GordoDeCentral]

This league has become such a snooze fest. I used to always look forward to 2-3 games a week, looking at the fixture list, there is little to be excited about really. Shame that teams like Inter, Milan and Roma have become so underwhelming.

classic trolljob

 

[Alen]

He never ran like this for BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBilan

 

[ALC]

Haha Seedorf. Everyone plays better once they leave Milan.

 

[Tommy]

Slowdorf

 

[Alen]

There was one guy in their forums who couldn't stop badmouthing Slowdorf and Pirlo while they were in Milan. Apparently those two were their main problem

I hope he enjoys Muntari, Nocerino and Ambrosini now.

I'm loving it

 

[Gabriel]

Seedorf is class.

And whoever mentioned lamela as an exciting player, he sucks.

So you would recommend ordering it?

Remember the Seedorf bloopers videos?

 

[Quetzalcoatl]

I actually agree with Fred. Apart from Juve, Serie A is boring. I couldn't stand English football, but I could quicker watch those games than Italian now.

 

[JCK]

classic trolljob

He's right though, last season I watched 4 or five games other than the Juve matches.

 

[Fred]

It most probably became a snooze fest to an outsider, but to us it's as interesting as it ever was. Our team is in that league and we're interested in following our rivals, wishing them the worst. It's not like I was watching Milan, Inter, Napoli, Lazio, Roma etc back in 2001 so I could enjoy the football. I watched them for the same reason I watch them now - to cheer against them and hope they lose points. When one looks at things that way, from fan's perspective, the league is always interesting.
Actually, back in the days I used to watch many leagues. Now I'm much more concentrated on serie A, despite it being of lower quality compared to the last two decades.

I have started to watch them this season. It gives me pleasure to see them struggling.

Ya, from that perspective you're definitely right. I prefer seeing my rivals struggle than seeing the EPL being strong, i support everyone in Europe against the English teams too. So we're in agreement, when you guys put it like that.

 

[Joe]

So you would recommend ordering it?

Yeah definitely. You'll get at least 4 games a weekend.

I hope they resign Serie A for the following years.

The only downside is that they don't have Serie B anymore.

People getting trolled by the Lee Cattermole of trolls

I don't give a fuck if other Serie A teams suck since I don't have the time the watch other games' than Juve's at the moment
