Italian league is boring as hell. Slow defensive ugly football. Inter has been dominating for 4 years and no one has come close to touching them.

It's pretty though to get close to them for a team which was sent in the Serie B just three years ago and saw all its money from sponsors and Champions fade away. The Milan and the Roma were supposed to be facing them, but they're both pretty bad, so Inter is winningbecause of the lack of other good teams. And it's such a shame.

PS=I do prefer a defensive football to a Barcellona game, where your football is based on how terrible the other defenders are.

 

I'm really dissapointed in Milan Juve and Roma. Roma finished 2nd to inter for like 3 years I think? They probably got tired lol. Milan is a joke with their Grandpa team. They really need to clear out some players. And Juve, They got the punishment they deserved really and with Diego coming this could signal a new start for them. Neither teams were far away from inter this year. If Grandpa Milan found a replacement for Motor Mouth Gatusso, and found some decent defenders and a keeper all they had to do was beat Inter twice and it wouldve gone down to the last day.

 

 

You know, Roma and Milan were two big disappointments. They're worse than Inter so they lost. But why should Juve be so? How could we win the Scudetto with Ranieri and one year in Serie B?

Our main problem is that it's not anymore about Scudetto, it's about getting into the top 3. We managed to equalize today too. I'm getting tired of this team, the players just don't seem to care, they play just for the heck of it. Today we hadone of the worst match ever. I don't know how bad Ranieri can get before he finally gets the hell out of Turin. He doesn't deserve to sit there. Zebina for De Ceglie? Del Piero for Amauri? Trezeguet for Zanetti? Are you kidding me?

I meant that Juve deserved to go to the Serie B because of the match fixing scandal. Thats a disgrace to this sport.

Oh that.
Sorry I didn't get you.
Anyway, if you could speak Italian, I'd like to make you see a lot of documents where the situations is explained much better. There is a lot of stuff I do not even know, but the whole trial was a joke, that's for sure. They couldn't punish Moggi who now goes around on the TV saying craps all the time but yet they sent us in the Serie B without any real proof. Moggi has never said "Hey pal, I gave a lot of money to a referee to make my Juve win. Ya glad?". Never. Here in Italy the whole thing was seen as something against the Juve, not something against Moggi and his business like the GEA. I hope fmc83 knows what I'm talking of so maybe he can explain you in a better way. And the worst thing is that a lot of people think Moggi had a lot of friends, while Moratti and Berlusconi are much stronger than him. MUCH stronger. But yeah, we weren't clean at all, and no one can deny that.

^ Its a shame to Juve though big time. They were raping everyone in the Serie A and they had some of the best players in the world. They couldve challenged English teams in the Champions league but its unfortunate.

I don't think we could have ever won, because of Ibahimovic, who is terrible when it matters (I still remember his match against Liverpool and that miss after 4 freaking minutes), and because of Capello who couldn't understand how important was to let Del Piero play the most important matches.

I don't think they wouldve won it either but at least give the English clubs a run for their money.

Oh yeah, that's for sure. We could have done so much better in those years!

Yep, 95/96.

But we even managed to lose two finals in a row and then...you certainly remember what happened on 21st April 1999. It's been the match the most I have suffered for.
