Isn't Milan just bought by the Chinese rich last summer?

They did. They spent 200 million quid in the summer in the transfer window.

Montella is linked with Sevilla in the papers. I liked his Fiorentina team, and his Milan side was also good in hindsight (especially last season).

Milan beat Inter 1-0 in extra time in the Italian Cup and now into the semi's, they will face Lazio to make it to the finals. Best result of Gattuso thus far.

Inter's Spaletti has suddenly forgot how to win.

The Chinese owner doesn't actually have any money, he had to borrower it all from a pretty hardcore American hedge fund who will tear AC Milan down if they get a hold of it. Not sure how Serie A actually agreed to this but considering who the previous owner was it's not surprising.

Napoli up 1-0 at Crotone but struggling to score. The way Inter has played recently, looks like the title will be between Napoli and Juventus.

25 mins in Fiorentina-Milan match. Dare I say Milan looks better defensively last few weeks?

The potential beauty of VAR technology on show today. During the Inter - Lazio game (in progress as I type), the referee initially game the away team a penalty for handball by Skriniar, which absolutely was not deliberate. Following Inter's furious reaction, referee decided to go have a look at the monitor, and decided that he was indeed wrong to award a penalty as the ball had bounced off Skriniar's thigh onto his arm.

Hope the FA are paying attention...

1st half hat trick for Immobile.

Now tops the league with 19.

He's been boss.

Lucas and Alberto doing well.

Crazy score already in 50 mins, 2-5
Immobile with his 4th. What went wrong for him in Dortmund anyways?

kloppismydad · « **Reply #290 on:** January 6, 2018, 03:11:44 pm »

Luis Alberto opened the scoring in the absolutely mad Lazio match (currently 5-2) with a peach of a goal. He's really blossomed in Italy.

Ciro Immobile establishing himself as the best striker in Italy right now. 19 in 19 for him.

Benevento win again. The great escape is on!

Atalanta 2-0 up at Roma after 20 mins, de Rossi injured and nainggolan suspended for his idiocy on new years

elsewhere · « **Reply #293 on:** January 6, 2018, 08:24:26 pm »

Some crazy results such as Rome losing at home vs Atalanta (although they are a quality team and made the Italian Cup semi's too), Benevento winning again.

Thought Juve would win easily but Cagliari defending really well thus far.

So what happens when rugby is played in Rome, laziness at home that weekend, likely to be on a Sunday (which most games are I know) or Friday night?! Hoping to catch there game while I'm out there 👌

they do a few Monday night games there, piece of piss to get tickets but you need your passport to get in and your name on the ticket

Why no games this weekend? They played last weekend.

Edit: just read above comments. Seems an odd time for a break.

The style of the football didn't really suit him. And he made no effort to fit in at Dortmund either, and he said he found German people cold and unhelpful! But the bosses at Dortmund where not so happy with his effort to integrate either so they got rid asap. Same thing happened in Seville apparently, where he just didn't make the effort either.

I guess he's just a homebody

That feels like a massive win for Napoli, very tough game out of the way.

I know you're joking but Klopp won't sign him again after the disappointment in Germany. He was also crap in Spain. He seems to only play well in Italy.

Watched the Lazio game Lucas(he got a great asist) and Luis Alberto look great in Serie A. Savic is something else, a colossus in midfield and his shooting is incredible.

Why did he bring him instead of Gerson? Could have brought Cengiz Under and kept the back four as is.

To make matters worse, he took SES and brought in Jesus who is also another shit player.
