[ITA] Serie A 2013/2014 (20 Viewers)

[Alen]

We always blitz the end third of the season, which is the most important time.

Unfortunately, we didn't do it when we should have done it back in 2005/06. Capello played the same starting XI over and over again. We destroyed everyone on our way (17-1-1 record at half season iirc) and we had a team that was rightfully considered the main candidate for the CL. But somewhere in late March our guys just couldn't run. Arsenal destroyed us in CL and Milan almost caught us in serie A, after the 12 pts advantage we created over them earlier in the season.

You mean when you don't deserve them?

dont think napoli have enough depth to able to compete on both CL and serie a, even if benitez is capable of instillling a winning mentality. they will challenge for either, but not both.

roma have the benefit of playign only once a week so that helps them immensly considering outside their first 11 their squad looks poor

I dont think we will be challenged by Napoli
Inter however might give us a fight this season but I still expect us to win the league

 

[Fred]

Napoli will be Juve's main contender. Mazzarri has taught Inter how to play counter attacking football, and they seem to be rejuvenated with a new coach and a fresh start, but teams will find them out sooner or later, and their squad isn't really one to write home about. IMO Napoli have the better individuals, the better coach, and a core who have played together for a long time now ( Cannavaro, Zuniga, Inler, Maggio, Hamsik)

I was having an interesting discussion with my friends about modern day footballers and there legend compatriots, for example we would talk about a modern day player and try to find an old player with the same skills and play style, and we couldent find one inparticular

Pippo Inzaghi, who currently playing is most like Pippo, your opinions?

 

[Eddy]

Hernandez. United.

Hernandez. United.

That was my first guess as well.

"Please deposit another 5 million Euros.

Oh, you already spent that on Matri? Sorry then, you're S.O.L."

Down to a ration of just one penalty per game?

How awful for them.

 

[Zacheryah]

Hernandez. United.

Hernandez is nothing like Inzaghi, if you truely knew Inzaghi.

 

[Red]

No, but can you name someone who is closer than him to being a modern Inzaghi?

 

[Nicholas]

Mario Gomez.

Modern football doesnt have a single player that resembles Inzaghi in any way apart from the physique.

Mario Gomez.

Not really

 

[Joe]

Whatever happened to Mauri? Is he still suspended/banned from Serie A?

Anyone know when he's back?

 

[Zacheryah]

Didnt he got brutally injured ?

Banned until 2/2/14.

Said he'd appeal, though, so I'd guess a hearing can't be too far away.
