Mutu was a fantastic player when he was young, and became one of the best ones in Europe years before to have drug problems. And Bonucci's career has been a little bit better than the career of Ranocchia, I think.

Yeah Mutu was promising (till cocaine took him) but he’s far to be a regret for Inter, his best moments of his career were at Parma and Fiorentina, making good seasons but still failed in the big clubs (Chelsea and Juve).
Bonucci was part of a deal (along with Destro and few others) that brought big success to Inter, so I dont get the comparasion between Ranocchia and Bonucci. Is like saying that Henry had a better career than Amauri, whatever
Is Zaniolo an out and out striker or wide player/second striker?
Out and out striker and it's obviously near impossible to replace Icardi there (although seems his contract talks have stalled). Bit more withdrawn and I agree bad error from Inter when you consider their regular wide players Candreva and Perisic are around 30 so will need to be replaced soon.
Plays all over the pitch, involved in the buildup, in midfield, left and right side.... Hard to define, but based on his abilities he could become deadly as a midfielder with a similar role as Pogba.
Zaniolo is an attacking midfielder. Pretty versatile and been used in a variety of positions, but mostly he's an attacking mid
Not watching the game but WTF not even against Frosinone Allegri rests Ronaldo?
Their CL game is on Wednesday, right? I'm sure that sort of 5 day turnaround is fine, even for a 34 year old Ronnie. Plus I bet he wants to play.
I wasn't thinking so much on the 5 days but looking at the bigger picture of the season, but ok.
Fair play. I mean, they've already won the league, so no reason not to rest him
(Unless he just really wants to play).Don't doubt he wants to be the top goalscorer in Serie A.Fair play. I mean, they've already won the league, so no reason not to rest him
Take a bow Dybala! Wow! Could be the goal that is gonna chance his season.
Parma have been officially exposed as a Serie B team who are struggling to gain points. It's gonna be difficult to stay up if we keep playing in this way.
How? You are 11 points clear of 18th.
It was all this last season, Parma have next to no chance of promotion when they were only 2-3 points off top position.
What a fecking goal by Krzysio 
Marco van Piątek
I'm still confused why west ham never offered like £50m for papu or Ilicic
First time I see Calhanoglu do something good ever since his Neverkusen days.
He's fecking sick. Say it bitches, you love him as much as I do.
Now this is shaping up to be very good win for Milan....1 down away to Atalanta and now 1-3 in about 15 minutes. That man Piatek with two more.
I think Ilicic is a very underrated footballer...been a good player in Seria A for many years at Fiorentina before he went to Atalanta.
Gomez didn't really impress me when he played a few games for Argentina last year, think he might get a bit lost playing for a bigger club where he's just another player rather than having a system built around him.
I said West Ham, not City
Well, it seems that AC Milan found their new Van Basten.. Now they have to find the new Maldini, Rijkaard, Gulit..
They already got BakayokoWell, it seems that AC Milan found their new Van Basten.. Now they have to find the new Maldini, Rijkaard, Gulit..
Milan win 3-1 and keep the 4th place. They are on a great run atm. Let's see if they can keep it up. Surely, having Piatek insted of Fatty helps.
Lanzini might be back for them before end of season, he is better playmaker than Papu imo.
you dont know if he will be the same after injury though. he is still only 25, but you never know how these things turn out
Still many games left and we have completely switched off mentally. Let's hope that we can fluke some wins to stay up.How? You are 11 points clear of 18th.
It was all this last season, Parma have next to no chance of promotion when they were only 2-3 points off top position.
What’s going on with that Serie C game. Home team 16-0 at Half time with 95% possession
Apparently Piacenza started the game with 8 players only and the coaching stafc hasn't even travelled. The team forfeited their previous three games and they would have been automatically kicked out of the league if they hadn't shown up this time.
Isn't that unfair on the other teams in the league? Correct me if I'm wrong, but a forfeit is typically a 3-0 win to the other team, right? But they're just giving away a huge GD advantage by turning up but not actually playing properly.
If it impacts the table at all, maybe it'll be swapped to a 3-0? I've no idea.
I don't know actually. The games they didn't show up for are listed as postponed so maybe they'll play them later somehow? I dunno.

Remember Piacenza playing in Seria A in late 90s. They had a 40 year old CB playing for them, Pietro Vierchowod.
Not the same Piacenza. This is another team.
Apparently Torino have some kind of power in the away games which makes the opposition unable to score more than they do. Napoli have fluffed many attacks tonight.
Not what I want to be hearing as I’ve got money on Napoli...
12 away matches with a 2-9-1 record, conceding less than a goal per game. Only loss is to Roma.
Looking at their performances in general this season they've only lost twice to Roma and against Napoli, Parma and Juventus at home. Seems like a club that you'd hate to play against.
