How was your trip to Napoli?
Napoli, was as good as ever, great atmosphere and great food with an entertaining match... what more can you want.
Not quite as hostile as last time i was there, but then with the continual inter group fighting from our own fans, they didnt need to be, jus sat back and watched as our fans kicked the shit out of each other... hopefully that will all be sorted soon... Its getting tiresome.
Regardless of the defence, how is the team playing? Watching highlights shows you nothing from the game.
Being that theres so many "satelite experts" on this forum, i'm a lil perplexed as to why you all havent seen these coppa matches... Jus cause they werent officially broadcast? They were all available from the sky feeds (either soft enc or in some cases free to air - But then i spose todays sat freaks are too lazy for feed hunting)
From watchiing the previous friendlies and the the first 2 coppa games.. We played pretty much as expected in this match... A slight improvement with each match...
We played well enough, My issue wasnt actually with the defense, more so the lack of concentration at certain points of the match.. To suddenly switch off at vital points was not acceptable and in my view down to DD... That is something he must work on...
I am also unhappy with some of the players DD thinks highly of and those he has disgarded...
Bojinov.. But for his goals has been poor to average in every game so far... How he has this following i do not know.. He showed the world last season he wasnt good enough and he isnt showing anything more now... WHat i would give for a forward option of DP, Trez, Palla and paolucci rather than DP, trez, Boji and Zala...
Paolucci has more talent in his pinky than boji will ever have and to look to zala over the allways impressive and multi talented palladino is ridiculous...
Then we have the likes of guzman who is no better now than he was the last time he wore the shirt, His curve flatlined at mediocre long ago...
Thank god for the likes of paro who actually is talented, though the comparisons to maresca are downright insulting to a young man who is actually capable of reaching real heights...
For the game, we cannot complain we had the better of a match against our chief rival for the title and the only team in B who could really do well in A... We lost on pens which is allways a lottery, but then to be a lil objective our lack of concebtration did bring us to that place, thougfh at this point of the season we have to expect that...
What do you think our chances are? Did you ever think we can make it all the way in Coppa so we play Europe next season?
No, Never, Even if we had beaten Napoli (as maybe we should have) we would have been turned over once we hit the serie A teams. People have got to realise, whatever our badge may say, we are now a serie B side in every way.. the only bonus is that we have a couple of Talents that shouldnt be playing down here, but we cant ride on the shoulders of DP and Neddy all year... they will do their part, but everyone needs to step up.. This is gonna be a hard year and if we are being realistic we need to be looking to the play offs not to winning the league...
People have also gotta realise whatever our badge says, these names people keep mentioning.. aint coming to serie B... We are a B side and will attract pretty much the same calibre of player as any other B side... and now we are out of the coppa, that list is even shorter...
