And their wages to turnover ratio is 83% even with the CL money last year. Somehow I don't think that's going to work out for them.

its why they sell a shit load of players every summer at a profit

Milan finally have a proper striker in Piatek, shades of a young Shevchenko in his play.

What an absolute shambles these guys are. Serie A now on Premier Sports till end of 20/21 season. At least they have a tv channel!

Cracking game between Fiorentina & Roma at the mo in the Cup. 33 mins in and Fiorentina 3-1 up. On BT sports 3.

MULLENEDWINE · « **Reply #1166 on:** January 30, 2019, 06:53:27 pm »

4-1 now to Fiorentina. Dzeko comes on at half time and is sent off on 70 mins odd. You've never seen so much play acting and general tartiness in a game since the last time you saw PSG play. It's a carnival.

ohhhh 5-1 73 mins Chiesa hat trick. Cracking player.

Alisson to Robin Olsen is one of the biggest downgrades in the history of the sport. No wonder their defensive record has totally tanked this season.

MULLENEDWINE · « **Reply #1168 on:** January 30, 2019, 06:59:52 pm »

6-1 Roma head's have fallen off. Like a knife through butter before before it was vs 10 men but now it's a slaughter.

Oh god yeah it's really quite a cliff sized drop off in personnel that.

7-1 in the end

How good is Simeone?

Giovanni? Yeah superb. Definitely someone to keep tabs on. He's only like 22-23 right?

Zapata has scored 10 goals in his last 5 games or something mental like that for Atlanta.

No Coppa for Juve for the first time in 5 seasons.

Gerry Attrick · « **Reply #1173 on:** January 30, 2019, 10:26:49 pm »

It cannot be overstated how good a job Gasperini has done there.

Parma snatch a 3-3 draw away to Juventus with a 93rd minute equaliser after being 3-1 down.

It's like 1995 all over again!

Parma have me all nostalgic for the 90's delighted for them.

Icardi has been stripped of the Inter captaincy and hasn't showed up for their european fixture. What a soap opera.

DelTrotter · « **Reply #1178 on:** February 16, 2019, 09:00:45 pm »

Not too often you can say Milan have done good business in recent years but terminating fatty's loan and getting Piatek in is certainly that, the first goal was a stunning finish.

SheikhMo · « **Reply #1179 on:** February 16, 2019, 09:07:43 pm »

Piatek’s on fire, looks like Shevchenko reborn. Hakan’s was a great strike too.

Yiannis · « **Reply #1180 on:** February 17, 2019, 01:06:13 pm »

Piatek's first goal was just ridiculous.

BobPaisley3 · « **Reply #1181 on:** February 17, 2019, 04:41:35 pm »

No icardi again for Inter.

Second game. Contract issue apparently and as his wife is his agent, it looks like she’s pulling the strings.

Unbelievable how much worse Napoli are now Ancelotti is at the helm. How did we get schooled by this lot?

Played Chelsea twice in a couple of days before we had to play them and we didn't play well either.

@JuventusFC have announced that @SamiKhedira will be out of action for a month after an irregular heartbeat was discovered.

The club also confirmed that he has successfully undergone surgery.

BobPaisley3 · « **Reply #1187 on:** February 21, 2019, 09:39:58 pm »

Diego Godin on the verge of signing for Inter. They should get a couple of good seasons out of him.

soxfan · « **Reply #1188 on:** February 22, 2019, 04:28:15 am »

And he wonders why people think he's a complete twat.

he who fannies about and dives around touched back down in Madrid last night as his Juve side took a look around Atletico Madrid's Wanda Metropolitano Stadium ahead of tonight's Last 16 First Leg tie. Stepping out onto his old rival's turf, Cristiano Ronaldo was sporting the ultra limited edition Swarovski x Nike Air Max 97 LX "Metallic Gold" – a signature version of the sneaker which dropped in limited numbers back in late December.

The most premium of limited editions, with a design taken from his Brazilian namesake's iconic R9 Mercurial, the Swarovski x Nike Air Max 97 LX "Metallic Gold" is a high-brow take on the original colourway that sees the sneaker modified with crystal fabric to deliver that shimmering effect. Each $400 pair sold out in seconds with most instantly doubling and even tripling in price on re-sale platforms. Nothing covered in crystals comes cheap.

edit: I just noticed C..R..7 autocorrects to "he who fannies about and dives around" Bravo to whoever set that up.

BobPaisley3 · « **Reply #1189 on:** February 22, 2019, 09:09:39 pm »

Another one for Piatek, Europe’s form striker at the moment.

Premier Sports have now got the UK TV rights to Serie A (from Eleven Sports).

Good thing about it is some Serie A games will be shown for free - on FreeSports

Napoli down to 10 after a dive from Ronaldo gets the keeper sent off. No VAR review by the ref.

Wow. Ref has had a shocker. Awards Napoli a penalty for handball after a Juve defender has the ball smashed at him from a yard away.

Justice done with the miss.

Di Francesco sacked by Roma. Wouldn't be surprised if Sarri ended up there next season.

Ranieri interim until the end of the season, fair dues to his agent.

Monchi should have been kicked out first. Maybe they are hoping for some money from Arsenal in the summer.

If 100% success rate in transfers is the current requirement then every DoF or manager that handles transfers should be fired on an annual basis.

He only has two good transfers since going there, Ünder & Zaniolo. They sold almost every half decent player they had and replaced him with utter dross.
