Atalanta isn't playing for Italy or Seria A, it's playing for Atalanta, and for them the CL stuff is great, so there's that. Altruistic Juve are also not playing for Italy or Seria A, If they were, they would've been decent enough not to buy the Scudetto each year and let everyone compete and rise/fall on their own merit. Everyone's a mercenary: some are cheats on top of at too.
The only Italian side to win in this CL round was the one whose coach allows his players to play instead of directing them to play. The only reason Juve scored twice today was because of Ronaldo. We gave the ball away when we tried to execute Sarriball.
Not to worry, not to worry. Juve's Rochi and Tagliavento subscription plans weren't on Allegri's name.
Please! This is your definition of a great Italian Football team? Ma mi faccia il piacere! At least Napoli beat the Champions....
Atalanta: “A Dark time comes. My time. If it offends you. Stop Me.” And no one did. It's not their fault that everyone else in the CL fight was fielding a bunch of morons on the field. Atalanta are where they are right now because they didn't suck. Stop taking away from their achievement. It makes you little, and Roma fans in general by association.
Maybe if they re-sign Cristiano Doni and at least fix some pk’s and/or matches! Gasparini said on the weekend they are concentrating on not getting relegated. I think they should worry more about that. Provinciali del cavolo!
I’m all for the underdogs doing well but not disgracing themselves in the champions league. Your Viola team will have shown better! Italy needs top not provincial squads who lose 4-0 in the tournament. Which fan of the Serie A doesn’t want this?
You realize that becoming a fan of Roma doesn't magically bestow a deep( or even basic) understanding of the Italian language, right? The reason the rest of us don't use languages other than English isn't because we don't know any, especially considering that the majority of people here aren't from English-native countries.
I was a fan before you were born. Here is English... You are a Roma fan and you pull for the Bergamaschi who treat Romani and Romanisti like dirt? Learn your history as Atalanta fans have always considered Romani even worse than dirt. That’s a fact. How soon they forget...
My name isn't Koulibally. For me anyone treating me or mine like dirt is just another opportunity for future laughs when they inevitably have to eat their words, because that's how the world works. Plus, as an author and lover of books( and interesting stories), I can tell you that all great books thrive on good conflict and tension. Otherwise it's just a bunch of good-bodies having a pleasant afternoon. Same with enjoying a football league where no one is allowed to be a vicious antagonist.
Try going to Bergamo and root for Roma. You won’t even know what happened to you. I’ve been there and believe me, it’s a nightmare. I had an easier time at the derby di Roma..
I don't go in the gypsy neighbourhood wearing a gold watch. I don't go to an Atalanta match rooting for Roma by myself through a bunch of Atalanta ultras fans, when I can go with a Roma crowd of my own and avoid being overwhelmed by numbers. Common sense = win/win There's usually a common sense solution for the majority of worldly woes.
