he still got it! but its gotta be hard for him to ever play the same again, i'd imagine he would be very cautious of not being fouled hard
I think Giuseppe will do well this season. I don't expect much because I hope Montella is smart enough to not push him to hard right away. Let him come back slowly.

It is so much easier to root for the NT with Rossi up front as opposed to Stupid Mario. Hope Rossi is our main striker for Brazil 2014.
How about fielding BOTH of them at the same time? Gotta take my hat off to the kid. To miss a year of action and manage to come back as though he never skipped a beat truly is something inspiring.

It’s an honour to represent Italy and there are many Italians in New Jersey who follow the Nazionale,” said the American-born ‘Pepito.’ “After two years on the sidelines, playing seven games in a short space of time like I did at Fiorentina was tough. The day of the game I never held back, though. We’ll see what happens now. “I worked long and hard to be ready for the first day of the season. I believe in my qualities and when playing with teammates like mine at Fiorentina, it all becomes easier. This is why I’ve been able to play so well recently.” football-italia .
