Lazio went up a gear towards the end and put the game to bed. Napoli looked a little lacklustre earlier, but still won 3-1 to go back clear at the top. They could do with a bit more squad depth if they want to avoid falling short for the title again this year. They've got decent cover in midfield, but the front 3 start every game and Chiriches has his dodgy moments. Napoli are in a spot of bother if Mertens gets injured. The only other fit striker they have is a 19 year old who has yet to play for them. Milik has a long term injury yet again and could be getting punted on loan to Chievo once he's fit. De Laurentiis has said that he's spoken to Chievo about that possibility. Don't know if that would be in return for Inglese being recalled from Chievo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herman Hessian Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 (edited) arsebiscuits - inter took 36 minutes longer to score than i thought they would; mind - an almost competent performance up to that point an' all.... inter reduced to hopeful long balls out of defence now - pretty sure Hellas have them where they want them...

Mr. Brightside Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 How is Pazzini allowed to take that? I thought you weren’t allowed to be the first player to touch the ball if you come on as a sub? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herman Hessian Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 love it how these VAR interventions don't interrupt the flow of the game too much ! that said - get in you fucking beauty 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spud131 Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Bit if a strange situation there. Verona were awarded a delayed penalty by the VAR, they then bring on a striker who takes and scores the penalty. Surely a rule needs to be made to stop teams from doing that. Should be a player who was on the field at the time of the offence who has to take it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herman Hessian Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 f**k's sake - Bessa off and clownshoes Zuculini on - better not be a repeat of the Chievo shitshow from that twat - and his first intervention is to tackle and injure a team-mate.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herman Hessian Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 (edited) ahhhh - Zuculini's calming defensive presence reaps immediate rewards - some hit, though ! Edited October 30, 2017 by Herman Hessian 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herman Hessian Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 ho hum - decent performance, plenty of bottle for once - i'd like to think there's enough there to show that some points are going to be there for the taking against the (other) lesser teams in Serie A, and the rest of November's fixtures (and Genoa at home on 04/12) will show if there's a realisitic chance of staying up or not; bring it on - per sempre gialloblù ! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanMc99 Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 enjoying nearly all italian games i'm watching these days, great to watch. Inter starting to look a right good side again, no europe will help them 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul-r-cfc Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 The inter game was shit.Roma game however was a belter Fizzing that I went to the Pollok game instead of staying home in my warm house watching that [emoji24] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kris. Posted November 5, 2017 Author Share Posted November 5, 2017 Napoli dropping points again. Even Milan stuck 4 past Chievo FFS. Getting very tight at the top though: I expect Lazio to win their game in hand against Udinese that was called off today, but Roma have a tougher game away at Samp. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herman Hessian Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 well - there's a surprise - the defence that conceded forty goals in finishing second in Serie B isn't even close to being able to give the appearance of being vaguely competent at the higher level; yet another individual mistake throws away a point at Cagliari, another battling performance undermined by failings at the back, another defeat. slightly cheered buy the fact that Bologna managed to lose at home to Crotone, conceding three, yesterday and therefore must be borderline shambolic so that's another game where grabbing a point may become feasible, but the Sassuolo and Genoa games are becoming more and more like must-win matches all the time... reult notwithstanding, I'm also thinking that a trip to Sardinia was a marginally more attractive proposition than going to Gravesend - piss poor call on my part... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herman Hessian Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 (edited) seriously thinking about a jaunt to Tuscany next year - flights in to Pisa are dirt cheap at the moment, spot of rural splendour and a decent amount of football to choose from - Pisa, Lucchese, Pistoiese, Siena, Livorno, Empoli, Prato, Fiorentina, Arrezo... been to Piedmont and the Veneto for the last couple of years, it's the region with the third most DOC wines (after those two) in Italy - so that bodes fairly well too - chianti, sangiovese, pappardelle and wild game.... anyone taken in games at any of those grounds - Artemio Franchi is the obvious one to aim for, but any others not to miss - ones to avoid ???

Am Featha Taigh Nan Clach Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 I wish he'd chucked it a couple of years ago rather than topping up his pension in a no mark league. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MONKMAN Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 I wish he'd chucked it a couple of years ago rather than topping up his pension in a no mark league. Why wouldn’t he take the opportunity to go to America. He got to move his family to one the best cities on the planet while continuing to do the job he loves, while no doubt earning a ridiculous amount of money in the process. Anyway, it’s safe to say football just got a bit uglier with the departure of this beautiful man. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
