kurtsimonw Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Udinese out of the CL on penalties 5-4. Maicosuel with the only miss trying to repeat Pirlo from the Euros. Idiot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rino8 Posted August 28, 2012 Visiting Supporter Share Posted August 28, 2012 Italian football has a long, long way to come back to what it was Don't expect them to get a team out of the group stage this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhyscartwright_avfc Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Looks like Milan realised they needed some players. Niang in and Bojan to join imminently. Not quite Ibra standard though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurtsimonw Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 At least they're getting younger I suppose, going to take a few years rebuild at the very least though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted August 29, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted August 29, 2012 Not picking on you, Kurt. But I hate that when someone misses one of those chip penalties they get described as an idiot. Townsend and Strachan were really hammering the guy on ITV last night. You score, you're a genius. You miss and you're an idiot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurtsimonw Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Not picking on you, Kurt. But I hate that when someone misses one of those chip penalties they get described as an idiot. Townsend and Strachan were really hammering the guy on ITV last night. You score, you're a genius. You miss and you're an idiot. I hate that too and not just for those type of penalties. Pirlo, Yorke, Zidane may have been very good players, but their chip penalties aren't particular genius to me. They just take a lot of balls and luck. I still think a professional footballer should be able to put them fairly close to a top/bottom corner where a keeper has little chance of getting a strong hand to them.

Stevo985 Posted August 30, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted August 30, 2012 Yeah I agree. It's like when a player actually takes a pretty shit penatly but the keeper goes the wrong way. Yet the commentator declares "Great penalty" It's NOT a great penalty, if the keeper had guesses the right way he'd have easily saved it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rino8 Posted September 1, 2012 Visiting Supporter Share Posted September 1, 2012 Pazzini hat-trick! Great player, glad Milan got him. Still doesn't change the fact they were actually quite lucky to get the win, I don't even think they'll get the CL spots this year, if they do it's more down to the lower Serie A being about the level of the championship rather than Milan being particularly good.

Yet the commentator declares "Great penalty" It's NOT a great penalty, if the keeper had guesses the right way he'd have easily saved it. Completely agree with this. The inability of some of the commentators to differentiate between good and bad penalties is infuriating. Pazzini's 3rd was class by the way. I love them kind of finishes.

Pretty much. Juve are leagues ahead of the rest and are a genuinly class team for me. Inter and Napoli look strong in comparison to the rest of Serie A and there's always going to be one from Lazio/Roma/Udinese who're going to push for a CL spot. Milan could be in trouble of missing out with only 3 spots. Pazzini's 2nd and 3rd goals show what a great poacher he is. Always loved him, even at Inter, great fox in the box.

kurtsimonw Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 Milan's new highly rated kid, M'baye Niang, has got himself in a bit of trouble. Apparently he was driving without a license when the police stopped him. He told them he was Bakaye Traore. Then they escorted him back to his hotel, where he showed them his ID which obviously showed that he is indeed not Traore, but Niang. So driving without a license and then lying to the police. And they say footballers are stupid? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lapal_fan Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Interesting graphic detailing all of the Serie A players salaries. Interesting that if you're a so called legend or an important member of the national team then you are given the top bracket wages. Also interesting to see that now Ibra has left Milan they are saving 12m euros a year and Silva leaving saves them 8m euros. anyway, here it is; salaries Some of the clubs that do well such as Lazio and Udinese have very low wage bills too.
