Serie A Thread - 2014/15 Season

Re: Serie A Thread - 2012/13 Season

hope to see you guys back very soon

Palermo its one of those teams who I want to see at first category , it feels almost the same as Newcastle getting relegated from EPL few years ago !

EDIT: Palermo 0 - 3 Parma at HT ? c'mon at last they should won this for fans !
 
Re: Serie A Thread - 2012/13 Season

so its min 70 , Milan losing 1-0 and Fiorentina wining 5-0 , Milan only need 3 points now to get in 3th place which give them CL games? its goal difference who matters right ?
 
Re: Serie A Thread - 2012/13 Season

Milan look clueless. Tbh if he wants to rely on Robinho (still to make his 1st successful pass), ambrosini who for me does nothing but foul and sideshow bob he needs punted.

Silvia berlusconi made call in last minutes . Fucking corrupted league
 
Re: Serie A Thread - 2012/13 Season

Someone yesterday said Spanish League is corrupt. He never saw a Serie A match lately.
 
Re: Serie A Thread - 2012/13 Season

Well that was a fucking joke, unbelievable how such things are still happening in the Serie A.
 
Re: Serie A Thread - 2012/13 Season

are u guys serious? a questionable penalty (wich honestly wasn't even that much of crazy call) and u scream corruption?!?
jeez, and then they say italians are silly conspiracists :D
 
Re: Serie A Thread - 2012/13 Season

Inter have the second worst defense after Pescara. :COOL:

What a shambles of a season, if this is how you set up a project by bringing players like Kuzmanovic, Schelotto, Rocchi and Jonathan then god help us next season.

Only positives of this year: Kovacic and Handanovic.. Palacio too but he's 32 already..

Now Moratti will sack Stramaccioni and will bring a manager and expect him to do magic with the amazing squad we have. :BRMM:
 
Re: Serie A Thread - 2012/13 Season

Interista, is your Brazilian defender Juan any good really? I mean, if I'm not wrong he started in almost every game this year. is he really worth it? imo, Ranocchia is a decent defender but he was bench'd many times this season. what's the real matter with Inter's defence? I'm wondering.

p.s. Mazzarri to leave? Why the hell he would do that?! That's just amazing.
 
Re: Serie A Thread - 2012/13 Season

IMO he has a deal sorted at another club, like Roma or Inter, but he says he feels he won't be able to motivate players anymore. Also, coaching Napoli is probably one of the highest-pressured jobs in Italy. The fans are crazy.

juan is actually very good. one of the few good signings made by branca on the market over the last few years. as for ranocchia, this season has been horrible for him... he suffered back to back knee injuries and anckle injuries, wich forced him to miss a good chunk of the season. what's more worrying is that once inter defence got tore apart with injuries, inter forced ranocchia to play again, despite his injury (stramaccioni said that for the last 2 months it took 2 injections per game, only to have him on the pitch for 90 minutes). i'm a bit worried about ranocchia. his knees are becoming a constant problem for him.

actually i think he's telling the truth. afterall that's exactly the same thing he did in all his previous jobs (livorno, reggina, sampdoria). mazzarri is a very stressful and intense coach (kinda like mourinho)... he's aware of that so he always leaves his clubs before the players get used to him (or get tired of him).
it's a good call imo. mazzarri always had an amazing timing for theese things.... plus with the roma job opening up in a few days, he might be unemployed for only a few weeks.

He was good along with the rest of the defence upto the Juventus game, Samuel, Ranocchia and Juan were all 100% fit. Then like Ben pointed out the injuries came and Ranocchia played most of the 2nd half of the season with an injury and everything went downwards. The leaky defense isn't only our defense fault, the midfield have their share of just standing around and not pressing/marking properly.
 
Re: Serie A Thread - 2012/13 Season

I like Ranocchia quite a lot and personally, I rated him higher than Bonucci until this season, but I had never heard about his injuries (man, how I hate the knee injuries!). That was really sad to hear and how he was forced to play through injuries. Hope he manages to sort things out asap. As for Juan, I'll certainly have an eye on him come the next season.

Thank you for the replies, guys.
 
Re: Serie A Thread - 2012/13 Season

i'm a big fan of both, but yeah, i also thought ranocchia would have developed earlier than bonucci. unfortunately his injuries (and the fact that inter midfield is an absolute tragedy) are holding him back, and it's hard to say how things are gonna unfold for his carreer at this point (although he's still relatively young).
bonucci on the other hand has really blossomed into a fantastic player.

on the coach department, it looks like benitez might be about to sign for napoli, and allegri seems to be off to roma. now the real question is who will land the milan job? and where will mazzarri end up? i got no idea.

Out of the ridiculous names being thrown around the Milan camp, the only one I quite like is Seedorf. He's a clever and humble guy with a lot of experience, and might be able to have control of the dressing room.
 
Re: Serie A Thread - 2012/13 Season

It's hard to think Seedorf will leave Botafogo. He is enjoying his time with Botafogo, he's loved by fans, plus he won Campeonato Carioca some weeks ago and he will start Brasileirão next week. Since he's a loyal person I can't believe he will leave Botafogo in this moment.
 
Re: Serie A Thread - 2012/13 Season

Seedorf-Maldini at the helm with AC Milan according to James Richardson...
 
Re: Serie A Thread - 2012/13 Season

Sad to see Mazzarri go to Inter, as I really rate him as a manager. I think with him in charge, Inter can do better than Milan next year :(
 
Re: Serie A Thread - 2012/13 Season

I don't think Inter's squad is as bad as people think - they have a lot of injuries but still have players like Handanovic, Cambiasso, Palacio and Guarin who are good enough for most Serie A teams.
 
Re: Serie A Thread - 2012/13 Season

and Kovacic...God I love that kid! Players like him are mean to have a team build around them.

Also you have to look at the bright side at least Napoli is going to be out of the way next year ;)
 
Re: Serie A Thread - 2012/13 Season

I think Rafa can potentially be a good signing. He has a strong base to work from, and has bags of experience. This Napoli team has reached a point of maturity in players like Hamsik, Pandev and Inler - but like Mourinho's Inter, there could be a huge dip as Mazzarri uses intensity to drive his teams, where as Benitez less so.
 
Re: Serie A Thread - 2012/13 Season

I think with Mazzarri hired, the management will probably just cancel whatever "project" they were trying to do and go on a spending spree like the good old days. Might explain why Moratti is looking for investors. :D
