An All Too Familiar story

February 7th, 2010 | By: Paul | Comments Comments(13)

Euro 2012 draw was earlier this morning, and once again we are part of a tough grouping. Never fails huh? WC ‘06, Euro ‘08 (and qualifying), Confederations Cup ‘09, and now Euro qualifying. Sure, we should still advance with little to no problem, but knowing our previous qualification performances, there’s little room for error.

VotD: The Future?

February 4th, 2010 | By: Paul | Comments Comments(15)

With the lack of news (well, at least 100% credible news), I’m gonna start posting videos and other entertaining tid-bits to keep stuff rolling on the blog. Expect goals of the week, great domestic performances from Azzurri player or hopefuls, and Music Mondays (since I know a few of you appreciate Azzurri themed music)

Favorite Azzurri Picture Ever

February 2nd, 2010 | By: Julian | Comments Comments(28)

Four months. That’s all that remains between now and the World Cup. I post this with an eye on building excitement and a national team spirit regardless of club alliances, and also just because of sheer joy that it’s almost here. (more…)

Mister Mercato ; Philippe Mexes

Think about a Mexes-Chiellini partnership in central defence, pretty decent in my mind. It seems the Juventus management more than agrees. It’s no secret that Juventus need a CB to bolster their defence while everyone knows Rosella Sensi loves a good pay out. ...

Livorno on a Roll

Milan and Juventus, back to back draws, not to shabby. Antonio Filippini scores on a header in between Nicola - I Love Jesus in an innapropriate way - Legrotaglie, Fabio Cannavaro and Giorgio Chiellini ! Legrotaglie's goal was offside, , Mirko Pieri and De Lucia haven't played recently, Luigi Vitale ...

Milan's Tactical Difficulties

I may have had some computer issues yesterday morning, but it was Milan that had the real technical difficulties on the pitch. Call it whatever you want; regression, ineptitude, lack of awareness, but no matter what fancy name you give it, in the end it all sucks. ...

Throwback to the Reja Era

Udinese 3 Napoli 1 It's ironic that former Napoli mister Edy Reja should be linked with a move back to Serie A (Lazio) the same week in which his old team played a game reminiscent of his time in charge. Basically, there were a lot of major incidents, most of ...

The Bosman Probings

The reparation mercato is officially over, now starts the purge of the Parametro Zero players or as I like to call it, The Bosman Probing. Players with a contract expiring in June 2010 are now free to agree on terms with other clubs for next season. Some of the names ...

Finally a Win!

For awhile it looked like it was going to be one of those games. Where the team plays well but just can't find the back of the net. But then, in the 82nd minute, Tiribocchi scored. Thank. God. It certainly was a match that we deserved to win as we ...
