Lukaku benched (again) for the Super Cup... 4th game in the last 12 days and still no start for him since the full return of Lautaro.


Milan, still without Maignan, bringing in Kjaer.

And Inter leads 2-0 already. 36-year-old Dzeko is still a wonderful footballer.

I see Iervolino got smart. Cut out the middle man, don't waste money on a new guy for a couple weeks, just go straight back to Nicola and get the benefits of his mysterious magic which only works if he takes over a team mid-season(even if he started the season with them)

Ops.

And that's only for the "fake plusvalenze" thing.
The criminal and sports trials for cooking the books on wages have yet to start.


Oh, btw, Tottenham is without a sports director now.

Calciopoli pt. II. Don't those feckers ever learn? Pogba fecked even before kicking a ball. Juventus used to be such a glamour club. They're nothing these days.

Part 3. There was already Totonero scandal in the 80s

That didn't involve Juventus.

It's still act III though, they went on trial for the doping in the 90s
Oh but they managed to stall that out

Even though they likely ruined Del Piero in the process, can't convince me him growing horns in 97/98 wasn't related to the injuries that followed and turned him into a freaking joke for 3 years before he literally had to re-learn how to play

There is no way back from this farce and nobody really cares anymore, apart of a minority of fans.
Stop letting criminals run your club?
Enjoy your “victory” and good luck, third time good.:)

Argentina won the World Cup and Napoli seem to be on course to win Serie A. If only Maradona could've lived bit longer to see it.

Yeah, that’s the spirit :D nobody thinks Elkann wants to go the judicial route, so he will accept whatever random sanction in order to stop the sh*tstorm on this broken toy and go back to his beloved financial deals and mergers.

Imagine if Napoli also gets docked points, that Osimhen deal was obviously very dodgy from the beginning and was called as such on here.

Atalanta has scored 16 goals in the past 7 days (and this game not finished yet). Are they back? We'll see

He needs to change some of his tactics now. Almost every team knows how to make us trouble. Our attack depends too much on the wings especially the left-side combination of Theo and Leao. We need to fix our right winger, and the easiest way is to use Brahim as an rw. I think another interesting way is to change the formation to 4-3-3 since we don't have an elite cam( I don't count Brahim and CDK as an elite). Tonali and Bennacer wouldn't have problems with 4-3-3, despite being a bit different dynamics.

Inter lose at home to Empoli. Down to ten men for an hour though. Looks like only Milan can stop Napoli this season

It's not like Inter weren't threatening, but without Dzeko, they don't have a reliable focal point who can consistently get into goalscoring positions consistently and not necessarily hunt for the ball to his feet. Lautaro's not someone who can lead the line, unfortunately, as he plays more like a second striker. Lukaku should have started for them at least.

To me, it's a pleasant season so far in general, the league has become really strong again and some very promising young domestic players play a big part in that, which is simply great. Fully expecting the azzurri to play for titles soon.

The muddy waters of too creative accounting isn't something to write home about of course, but overall it's a minor thing compared to the ball (the better half of) the league is playing, imo.

I think we are about to witness a great second half of the campaign, and I'm looking forward to seeing it.

Yeah, that’s the spirit :D nobody thinks Elkann wants to go the judicial route, so he will accept whatever random sanction in order to stop the sh*tstorm on this broken toy and go back to his beloved financial deals and mergers.
Collegio di Garanzia dello Sport aren't exactly his friends anyway :smirk:
