Roma do this every year almost. Start well, look like they can win the league and totally and massively fuck it up.

You're saying they're Arsenal then

The Torino manager's face as he watches that Joe Hart fuck up is hilarious.

Conditions were so bad last night in Florence that the ref took the players off midway through the first half due to the rain and waterlogged pitch. Complete farce apparently, players on their arses every few seconds. There was then an hour's confusion while they considered whether the match could be completed, before they decided that yes, yes it could.

Florenzi out for the remainder of the season is a massive blow for them.

Lazio and Juve winning big last night uh.

Arsenal are the 3rd most successful club in England. Roma have 3 league titles in their history. Not the same.

That was clearly said in jest hence the smiley on the end. Like this one >

If I was to compare Roma with a side in England I would compare them with Spurs.

Arsenal are more like Inter, we are comparable to AC Milan, United are like Juventus

Not quite Hart's fault though, that was a Serie A through ball.

Bonucci is like Sami, a boss defender who produces a stunning finish now and again!

Gerry Attrick · « **Reply #134 on:** October 29, 2016, 09:04:11 pm »

Before the start of the season I'd have said this game was one of the biggest of the season, it's lost a lot of it's meaning in the past month or so though. Milik being out for the season has rendered Napoli irrelevant to Juventus.

Gerry Attrick · « **Reply #135 on:** October 29, 2016, 09:14:31 pm »

Higuain bags one against his former employers. Very good finish it was too.

Phil M · « **Reply #136 on:** October 30, 2016, 03:00:32 pm »

Been dire so far today. Roma huffing and puffing away to Empoli, only one goal across 4 games at h/t. Knowing Roma they'll prob fuck up the chance to keep pressure on the leaders.

Gerry Attrick · « **Reply #137 on:** October 30, 2016, 03:31:59 pm »

What's happened to Domenico Berardi?

Phil M · « **Reply #138 on:** October 30, 2016, 08:31:50 pm »

Inter losing again, De Boer is gonna be a goner soon.

Injured back in August.

Shame that, hopefully he'll be back soon.

As for Inter, I think de Boer will be let go during the international break.

Samp 1-0 Inter FT

Wonder whom they'll get to replace him?

Well, I think Blanc and Villas Boas could be contenders but I'm not sure if they're looking for somebody who knows Italian football.

sinnermichael · « **Reply #143 on:** October 30, 2016, 09:52:37 pm »

Wish Inter could move heaven and earth for Simeone at the end of the season just to stop him vastly improving one of our rivals in England. Ex Inter player and all that.

Unfortunately there's no way De Boer will last that long.

Caligula? · « **Reply #144 on:** October 30, 2016, 11:12:38 pm »

De Boer is a goner, he'll be given the boot sometime this week no doubt.

Wasn't he one of the names being thrown around along with Klopp and Ancelotti after Rodgers was sacked?

They finished second and won the cup, so not bad.

Couldn't remember honestly, so why did they sack him?

Edit, he resigned and then joined PSG.

Solomon Grundy · « **Reply #149 on:** October 31, 2016, 05:50:01 am »

It's good to see AC Milan having a good start to the season. I hope they can keep it up.

BigMarcs · « **Reply #150 on:** November 1, 2016, 03:13:16 am »

Pioli (ex-Lazio coach) is now the favourite to succeed De Boer.

*sigh*

Sky reporting that De Boer's gone.

pyroparty · « **Reply #152 on:** November 1, 2016, 11:27:19 am »

Good, after his dig at Klopp over injuries.

Inter are horrendously run though so not sure whoever is next will have much success either.

Gerry Attrick · « **Reply #153 on:** November 1, 2016, 11:31:11 am »

Inter's fixtures look a bit tricky. Milan derby, Fiorentina and Napoli (A) in their next 4 league matches.

Yiannis · « **Reply #154 on:** November 1, 2016, 11:58:53 am »

Now talk shit about Klopp again you tit.

Kopenhagen · « **Reply #155 on:** November 1, 2016, 12:10:00 pm »

Reaping the benefits of periodization. Shame he never made it until January.

De Boer criticising Klopps methods then getting the sack

Looks like Inter are getting Marcelino.

Poor man's version of Mourinho with total shithouse football. Little elf version of Hugh Jackman.

The Villarreal tool who was running in circles like an idiot after the first leg of our semi last year?

Hope they get stuffed 9-0 every match he's in charge, if so.

Dzeko seems to be in form, hasn't been playing like this since he helped City pip uss to the title, the bastard.
