After rereading his comments you have a point. I think accusing him of lacking respect for people’s contracts is completely uncalled for though. Everything Ragnick said has been public knowledge for months, and again he is not even the one instigating the interest. The only ones acting disrespectful to Maldini/Pioli are the Milan higher ups, his frustration is better directed at them.
Manolas out for 2 months after trying a bicycle kick during a game of football tennis. I’m not making this up. 😫— Everything Napoli (@NapoliPix) May 15, 2020 LOL
Papers claiming Mertens to Inter is practically done. Selling Martinez for a fortune and signing Mertens for free is great business on their end. Also will have Icardi money coming in.
Italy Minister of Sport, Spadafora, says on 28th May a decision will be made as to whether or not Serie A will resume.— John Solano (@Solano_56) May 19, 2020
Now official: #SerieA will be decided by playoffs & playouts if #Coronavirus stops the season again https://t.co/wqe7cyktBI #COVID19 pic.twitter.com/jE4X1ptiVn— Football Italia (@footballitalia) May 20, 2020
i might be in the minority but i feel like a playoffs / playouts should be the goal at this point regardless. It allows there to be "closure" to this season... allows the minimal exposure risk (ie- mid table teams with nothing to play for can not risk injury / virus)... and in theory it would be done quicker and not delay the start of next season. with the euros moved to 2021.. can have Serie A starting late especially with world cup qualifying coming too. Players will burn out.
Lol even I'll give Mario the benefit off the doubt on this one. He couldn't be that stupid. They have money to build 5 stadiums in each country? Most footballers haven't made enough money to pay the costs of the parking lot in such facilities. Projects that cost hundreds of millions.
RIP Gigi Simoni! I'll never forget how Massimo Moratti fired him on the plane while he was flying back picking up his coach of the year award!
Most fair thing to do would be to go back to the standings after the first 19 matches then do a seeded tournament.
Mirko Vucinic admits #ASRoma not winning the Scudetto in 2010 ‘will stay with me for life’ & reveals he clashed with Simone Perrotta during their defeat to #Sampdoria https://t.co/0Y3YUsC8zb pic.twitter.com/9hAarEzdt9— Football Italia (@footballitalia) May 25, 2020
Man i remember that game like it was yesterday and especially that Vuci - Perrotta argument. It was at that moment i knew something terrible was happening
I wish we had a prime Vucinic leading the line today. Hopefully that is the type of player we look towards after Dzeko.
He was a modern forward before people started using that term, players with his characteristics go for 50 million nowadays unfortunately.
In Serie A I don't see many good strikers besides the obvious. Joao Pedro could be a steal. Zapata is already known. Belotti will do well wherever he goes... Pinamonti & Esposito not sure about really.
I think Vlahovic can become very good in time. Marseille brought in Benedetto and hes changed their team. He moved late and most people would say if you're not in europe at that age you're not good enough. There is always those that buck the trend. He would have been the closest we could have got last year to a complete striker. The guy can play every way.. Would be hard to pay hom now though for a reasonable fee.
Yeah Vlahovic is really good. Fiorentina did well there. I did a write up about Fiorentina for Football Italia at the beginning of the season and picked him as the breakout star. Definitely worth trying for.
Cellino is making noise again. I realize his club is crap and headed to Serie B anyway but he is welcome to forfeit the rest of his games if he feels that strongly about not playing.....
