Summer Signings so far- striker Alessandro Matri (co-owned with Milan) goalkeeper Vincenzo Maruocco (from Foggia) midfielder Andrea Parola (from Samp) midfielder Michele Fini (from Ascoli) striker Robert Acquafresca (co-owned with Inter) defender Daniele Magliocchetti (on loan from Roma) midfielder Rijat Shala (from Foggia) striker Joaquin Larrivey (from Huracan) midfielder Pasquale Foggia (on loan from Lazio)
Re: Cagliari 2007/2008 [R] Well done, Cassano! Fini, Larrivey and Matri More market. We also paid approx. 5 mil € to get the entire ownership of Biondini (1.8 mil €), Bianco (1 mil €) and Ferri (1.5 mil €), get the co-ownership of Marchini, have back our youngster Pani who had a very good season with Pistoiese (c1) (he's very likely going on loan to some serie b side). That's the roster now. Goalkeepers Fortin, Marruocco, Aresti Central defenders Canini, Lopez, Bizera, Bianco, Magliocchetti (1 could leave) rightbacks Ferri, Pisano leftbacks Agostini, Del Grosso (Agostini could leave, then we'd need a sub) central midfielders Biondini, Budel, Conti, Parola, Shala right wings Foggia, Marchini left wings Fini, D'Agostino Strikers Matri, Larrivey, Acquafresca we need 1 more attacker...

Re: Cagliari 2007/2008 [R] a new stadium is greatly needed. 2 old videos. Fonseca with one of the best cagliari goals ever (season 90/91, ranieri was the coach). It was the equalizer vs sampdoria in genoa... that year samp won the scudetto. The commentator is THE historical radio fan-commentator of cagliari's match [youtube]3UwfPrsmTTY[/youtube] And then the great Enzo Francescoli [youtube]598HF-lN2As[/youtube]

Re: Cagliari 2007/2008 [R] I think Cagliari have proven to be a tough opponent. Although I'm not really sold on Larrivey yet.
Re: Cagliari 2007/2008 [R] He just builds a presence. At the moment, I don't think he is experianced enough or talented enough to pounce on the chances he gets. Matri on the other hand has been good so far. That Francescoli goal was awesome! There needs to be more of his Cagliari stuff on youtube though. Due to Enzo's status as a River Plate legend, there's too much of that footage there.
Re: Cagliari 2007/2008 [R] foggia is good but aren't people getting too excited/over hyping him because of his 4 goals? i mean they are all penalties.
Re: Cagliari 2007/2008 [R] Aside from the goals though he has been putting in excellent performances.
Re: Cagliari 2007/2008 [R] Is Foggia's deal with Cagliari a co-ownership one, or does he fully belong to Lazio still?
Re: Cagliari 2007/2008 [R] but he put in excellent performances week after week for reggina and no one seemed to care. and no, he's only on loan from lazio, jumpinjack
Re: Cagliari 2007/2008 [R] That's because Cagliari played Napoli and Juve at the start of the season. Napoli has a hugh fanbase and knowing that they're back in Serie A, there was going to be some focus on that game. Same applies to Juve. We are back in Serie A and we are one of the most well known clubs in the world.
Re: Cagliari 2007/2008 [R] Cellino wants to build a new stadium. Finally! The Sant' Elia is so ugly with the makeshift stands built on the track... http://goal.com/it/Articolo.aspx?ContenutoId=442971
Re: Cagliari 2007/2008 [R] I'll believe it when i see it. While it seems this time the offer is one the municipality cannot refuse I know they still could. Old Sant'elia is awful... and Cagliari is paying for it in terms of attending crowd... a new stadium should be a must.
Re: Cagliari 2007/2008 [R] aussie_ascoli doesn't go on BS anymore so he wanted to know your thoughts on Cagliari's current situation.
Re: Cagliari 2007/2008 [R] what can I say... he's 100% right. It's a total mess. And we are heading rapidly towards serie b. Cagliari's real problem is cellino... I am fed up with him and so are many others... but still no real protest against him. The local media carefully avoids criticizing him as he is vindicative, he would prevent journalists from speaking with players and coach, he has done it in the past. the traditional radio commentator (30 years) was sacked because otherwise cellino would have not given the rights to comment the matches. His guilt was to have commented that it wasn't the coaches that should have gone it was 1 person and the 1 person he was talking about was clearly cellino. (that was the year where cellino changed 4 coaches). it's impossible to build up a project with such a moronic asshole. he has no money to compete in serie a yet he likes being famous and he likes the money he manages to get from the club. there's little chance he will sell if not forced to do it. that's so sad. a historical club having more or less the 8th fan base in italy... we deserve more. it's kinda like a sickness, people are deserting the stadium, no fun, no excitement, no passion. apathy reigns.
Re: Cagliari 2007/2008 [R] ah... if someone would like to sign this petition, you're welcome. http://firmiamo.it/cellinovattene it's a "cellino go away!" petition. not that it will likely cause anything to happen... just a way to vent our frustration.
Re: Cagliari 2007/2008 [R] Thanks for the comments, sardus_pater! I'll let aussie_ascoli know about your comments. As for Cellino, he makes Luciano Gaucci likeable. At least what Gaucci did with Perugia was funny. Cellino is just being ludicrous!
Re: Cagliari 2007/2008 [R] ah... it seems like something is moving, yesterday the curva nord (sconvolts, the hardcore fans) attacked heavily cellino during all the coppa italia match vs samp. and coming sunday vs inter there will be more of that according to what they say.
Re: Cagliari 2007/2008 [R] Sardus, what do you think of the youngsters Cotza and Mancosu? Do they have a bright future?
Re: Cagliari 2007/2008 [R] hard to say yet. Mancosu should be the more talented. Yesterday it was the first time I saw cotza... well... I was not really impressed... but emotion could have played a big role. The young venezuelan Acosta looked more interesting.
Re: Cagliari 2007/2008 [R] isn't the striker Ragatzu promising as well? and I know he wasn't a Cagliari player, but Guberti looks to be living up to his promise and is having an excellent year in Serie B.
