just noticed parma is at the bottom of table with 6 loses.what's happening to them?

Sold Parolo and missing a lot of key figures.. Paletta and Biabiany didn't play a signel game yet, Cassano has been struggling with injuries + form
they're in a crisis, but in all honesty with all the injuries they're having you can see just how poor their squad is, what Donadoni did last season looks even more impressive now

And their defense is terrible( namely Lucarelli and Felipe).

Dondani has probably more peaks and troughs regarding his ability than anyone else on here.

He's shit, then he's the best manager in the league, then he's shit again.

Quite interesting, though I do think we shouldn't hire him, especially not now.

He's average. Neither shit nor the best in the league (who said that btw?)

When Parma were on their undefeated streak, people were praising him as if he was the best manager we could have hoped to get.

Then again, some people said the same about Unai Emery. :lol:

Getting back to his 2012/13 brilliancy, Spanish playmaking midfielder Pedro Obiang (22) is still a main target for Napoli manager Rafa Benitez, ready to submit Sampdoria an offer for purchasing him in January, according to Il Mattino. Currently on a deal with Blucerchiati until June 2017, former Atletico Madrid youth player is also tracked by West Ham, Newcastle, Crystal Palace, Queens Park Rangers, Bordeaux, Inter and Hoffenheim.

How the fuck did the ref allow that Empoli goal to stand?

Thohir was begging a few days ago for UEFA to let Inter into Champions League. This is his plan to fix 103 million hole in the budget.

"The real situation is quite different, because the consolidated financial statements show a loss of 103 million euro. The economic revival of the company, however, can not fail to raise sports. Thohir believes that access to the Champions League (with the consequent 40 million in expected revenue from sponsors and TV rights) is essential to catch his breath the coffers of the club. The third, or the victory of the Europa League, it is not just a goal to regain the crest of the past. But it is the key to ensuring a future at Inter."

Roma employ US firm to seek sponsorship deals

Roma have employed US-based firm CAA [Creative Artists Agency], as the Serie A club look for commercial partners.

With no main shirt sponsor for the 2014/15 season, Rudi Garcia’s side are looking to increase revenue by signing up major companies.

The Giallorossi have looked to CAA, a company which are based in Los Angeles, as they also seek a naming rights deal for their new Tor di Valle stadium, according to Il Tempo.

One, as yet unnamed, communication and technology company are believed to have made a proposal, with Roma looking for €10 million per season – plus bonuses – on a two-year contract.

Furthermore, a longer three-year agreement could be struck, worth €15m.

Roma have spent large parts of their history without a main shirt sponsor, including the 1970s and the 2006/07 season.

After the free titles, now they need free entrance to the CL. Very intense competition between the two Milan teams for most pathetic team of the year award.

I thought that was reserved for Juve.

How much has he done for this club, for the league, for the city, for the country, for Europe? Simply, without Moratti, there wouldn't be AC Milan!

Grazie Presidente della giallo teeth! Grazie patrono della Milano, heroe della Italia, conquistadore della Europa!

Grazie... amico

A lot of respect to Moratti as much as I might not like him.
