Such a shame. Such a good player and Roma's best player easily.

so did Merih Demiral on the same match, both out of the season. Maybe Roma's pitch is part of the problem?
Reportedly there has been 15 acl's last few years in Roma's pitch.

what was the point of Gattuso hire? Mind boggling. Looks like they will lose 3rd in a row now.

I remember San Siro's pitch having a similar issue causing injuries way back, as that pitch was quite bad too.

Gerry Attrick · « **Reply #1652 on:** January 25, 2020, 09:38:54 pm »

Atalanta can rack them up as well as anybody when they fancy it. They're well on pace to register 100 goals this season. That'd be an exceptional achievement for a team without a single world class operator. Surprised clubs aren't queueing from Bergamo to Milan to try and nick Gasperini.

Illicic is criminally underrated player. He got no love when I picked him in the Former Yugoslavia draft.

such a fun and strange team. 5-0 vs Milan and Parma, 7-0 vs Torino then they lose at home to Spal. Watch Genoa winning there next weekend.

Well yeah they’ve dropped some stupid points but this is literally a point gained. Inter need to be within 3 before they go to Turin in March.

Literally is but remind me a bit of our game last season vs Leicester. Operative word 'a bit' here before someone tells me they are different circumstances. I know that. It's just that Inter cannot afford to drop points at home twice in a row and at Lecce if they want the title.

Even if they are within 3 points the week going into the Juve game and even if they win that, they will still lose the title imo. Would still be a considerable improvement on their past seasons mind.

PS: Inter have a record of 6-4-1 at home and 8-2-0 away. Not good enough and excellent respectively.

They will lose the title ultimately and you’re right they are dropping stupid points at home but the fact they are only three off the top means that Juve arent pulling away. Unfortunately as well as Inter play in Turin, it’s unlikely the authorities will allow them to come away with three points.

Lazio will regret dropping 2 points in their last game. TBF, they were playing away against Roma.

Actually, how does the ticketing work in the Rome and Milan derbies? How do they work out home and away allocations?

Flaccido Dongingo · « **Reply #1666 on:** February 2, 2020, 03:42:47 pm »

Never seen a striker more at home in Seria A than Immobile, absolutely mince in both Germany and Spain, but an outright goal machine in Italy

Roma have a stand behind the goal for their home games where their hardcore fans go (curva sud.) When they are the away side in the derby they get this area and Lazio get the rest. This system is repeated in reverse for Lazio. Their hardcore fans sit behind the other goal for home games (curva nord) and for the away derby they get this area only. Same in Milan. There are also small neutral sections at both grounds for the derby.

They have some good players in there who need some direction. Theo, Romagnoli, Leao, Bennacer and of course Ibra. If they get Ralf, it will help them at least get fourth place as I believe he would build a good infrastructure to bypass the likes of Napoli (who are direction-less now) and Lazio who are massively overachieving.

Smart move by Milan if it's true Ralf Ragnick is a genius and you can see the influence he's had on some of the very best managers around today in Nagglesmann, Hassenhuttl, Klopp and Marco Rose.

Hope Daniel Maldini does well. No-one expecting him to be as good as his dad or grandfather but let's hope he at least becomes a role player.

yeah probably their smartest move in a decade if that happens. Also they have to get rid of Suso, Calhanoglu etc.
What happened to Paqueta by the way?

Bielsa quitting Lazio after one day is the greatest thing to happen to that club since the 2000 title win, if that had never happened would Simone Inzaghi had got the job as the reason why Lazio are where they are today is because of how good Inzaghi is.

Ooh yes, Juventus looking vulnerable for the first time in a decade. Tough games for Inter and Lazio tomorrow but there could be three sides within a point of each other come nightfall. And with the goal difference going against Juve too.

Played them off the field. Juan Cuadrado is the Tom Daley of Serie A. Napoli should be slightly nervous that Amir Rrahmani got skinned in a leg race by Ronaldo.
