Wow… that video was added to YouTube on January 2008, yet the song is eerily prophetic (I kept everything inside and even though I tried / it all fell apart / What it meant to me / will eventually / be a memory / of a time when I tried so hard /And got so far / But in the end / It doesn’t even matter).

Top drawer insight, Marco.

The lyrics could’ve been ‘Anthony is the handsomest man in the world,’ and I’d still hate Linkin Park.

I am with Anthony on this one…lol

Montolivo will be great for the WC but it was too early for him frankly speaking

Why do we play such a boring system with all these players. I am shamed at times.

Oh, but Marco, couldn’t those lyrics apply to the two previous years with the Viola?

You mean coming so close to qualifying for Champions League but failing? I suppose… I prefer the foresight theory though.

song = filth
Montolivo = awesome, but i agree, too early. it was either him or Aquilani. no need for 8 or 9 midfielders in Donadoni’s 4-3-3 system.

How about DDR as the #10 eh? Would have made more sense to make Cassano #10 but I’m not complaining, ADP=7.

Again.. You can’t give the number 10 to a player who may or may not start or may or may not throw a tantrum. DDR and Pirlo are both going to start so one of them would get it. I think Pirlo makes more sense but whatever.. I’m happy DDR got it.
