Crap, I was kinda looking forward to watching a lot more football, but I guess I'll have to stop.

Aha, I always knew you sneakily love Rooney

Seriously, I don't even consider Miccoli a genius on the pitch. He's sure a good and talented player, for a team of Palermo's level. Never impressed by him when he was with us, the little petty whiner.

Wasn't that the season when we were very bad and we were leaking goals like nuts? The season we ended up 3rd in serie A far behind Milan?
I don't think anyone impressed that season, bar Trez maybe. The other strikers, Di Vaio, Miccoli and Del Piero, were all pretty bad.

I agree though that he's a mid-table team player. If at 30 you still didn't shine in a big team, then there must be a reason.
Perfect player for the 2010 Azzurri team

Di Vaio and Miccoli were never impressing whenever they were given a chance. They both can do perfectly well for teams like Bologna and Palermo, I'd give them that.

 

[JuveJay]

It's one thing playing for a provincial side and another for Juve.

Meh

Meh

You said one must stop watching football if he doesn't like geniuses like Miccoli and Cassano so I concluded that you must be hanged dead if you don't like a player like Rooney

 

[Bjerknes]

If Rooney is a "genius" then football is dead as we know it.

 

[king Ale]

In a world where Miccoli is a genius, it'd be an insult to Rooney if we use the same term for him.

 

[Bjerknes]

Riquelme, a player I dislike because he's a choker, is much more of a "genius" than Rooney will ever be. And the reason being he sees stuff on the pitch others don't, while Rooney's execution is superb.

 

[Nicholas]

Rooney is not a genius, just a hardworking thug. Rooney is a top player I'll admit however I cannot class his as a footballig genius.

But Miccoli is and this is a crime not to like him

Hoori Hoori Hoori.

Miccoli has alot more skills in his locker than Rooney does.

With this i agree.

Neither are geniuses. A genius is a guy like Zidane.

I was just thinking today how creative the Italy squad could be if Lippi pulled his head out of his arse.

Pazzini

Giovinco-Miccoli-Cassano

Marchisio-De Rossi

Criscito-Chiellini-Canna-Motta

Buffon

That is a quality side.

 

[The Curr]

Pazzini

Balotelli-Miccoli-Cassano

Marchisio-De Rossi

Criscito-Chiellini-Canna-Motta

Buffon

 

[Nicholas]

Balotelli is not as creative as Giovinco though Could play Balo as CF though.

 

[JBF]

This looks better IMO:

Buffon
Canna----Chellini
Motta--------------Crisitio
De Rossi----Marchiso
Camo------Cassano------Di Natale
Gilardino​

Pazzini

Balotelli-Miccoli-Cassano

Marchisio-De Rossi

Criscito-Chiellini-Canna-Motta

Buffon

Pazzini

Balotelli-Miccoli-Cassano

Marchisio-De Rossi

Santon-Chiellini-Canna-Motta

Buffon

 

[Dostoevsky]

People pick Cannavaro like he's Vidic or someone.

 

[Suns]

Pazzini

Balotelli-Miccoli-Cassano

Marchisio-De Rossi

Santon-Chiellini-Canna-Motta

Buffon

Pazzini

Giovinco - Cassano - Balotelli

Marchisio - De Rossi

Criscito - Chiellini - Cannavaro - Cassani

This looks like a good formation, at least in a world where Giovinco was a regular at Juventus.
