I can't wait. I think it'll be quite interesting, and I'm hoping for an exciting style of play with all of the young talent we've got.
This must be a great time for all Fiorentina fans. The loss of Toni I'm sure hurts but with all the new players his transfer has funded I think it will be worth it in the long run. You guys already had an excellent high scoring starting line-up last season so a lot of these buys will really make you guys two-deep at each position. It's way to early, I know, but I must admit I'm already predicting a depp Viola UEFA Cup run next season and a tight battle with Juventus and Roma for 3rd and 4th in Serie A next season. The latest rumours have you guys getting Semioli and inquiring about Barzagli and Mavuba. If you guys can pick up even 2 of those players. Wow, you guys might be challenging for a Scudetto in a few years. I'm really looking forward to seeing what you guys do the rest of the summer. It's nice to see Serie A teams beside the Milan teams and Juve buy more than sell.
I have started an English language Fiorentina news & rumors blog at www.violaie.com ; check it out... Please! No ads or anything, just good old-fashioned love for Fiorentina and hatred for most all other things.
FORZA VIOLA ALE OHHHHHHHHHH VIOLA ALEEEEEEEEE! CANTERO PER TE! CANTERO PER TE!!!! FORZA VIOLA ALEEEE! Great site!!!!!!!!! Ive added it to my fav bookmarks!
Trez to leave La vecchia Putana!!!!!! We got Balzaretti from them. Fiorentina: Campione del Europa 2008!
Chievo Verona have revealed that Franco Semioli’s proposed move to Fiorentina has hit problems. The Italian international was all set to join the Viola after Chievo’s relegation, but a number of other clubs may hijack the move. “The Semioli situation has stalled,” revealed Gialloblu sporting director Giovanni Sartori. “There are other clubs who have made better offers compared to the one presented by Fiorentina. “We set a price for the player 10 days ago and all the clubs who have asked us for him are aware of it. “The difference with Fiorentina is significant. Not so much with what we are asking, but between what [Fiorentina sporting director] Pantaleo Corvino is offering and what we might get from other clubs.” Sartori refused to reveal which teams have expressed their interest in the 26-year-old, but Roma and Palermo have been heavily associated in recent times. “These might be the sides I was referring to,” added Sartori. “All I can say if that the fee we are after is an important figure.” The player’s agent, Marcello Bonetto, had declared last week that his client was on the verge of signing for the Tuscan giants. And in other news, La Vecchia Putana Grande are on the verge of losing Camoranesi as well as Trez. Also, Gilardino is not leaving Milan for Juve, “The news regarding Juventus is untrue,” said agent Claudio Sclosa to Teleradiostereo on Tuesday afternoon. “Milan first said that they wanted £17m for the player, but now things have changed and it is clear that he will stay. “The Rossoneri do not intend to sell Gilardino,” he added. “There was a misunderstanding that was immediately clarified. It also became apparant that Milan will not be chasing up their interest in Zambrotta.
We're definitely looking at many more options now and I am thinking that we may end up doing a deal with Sevilla sending Ujfalusi there and getting back De Mul and cash.
I told the juventus fans on the juve thread that trez was leaving, they didnt believe me til one of them posted the article
Barca are going to offer us Ludovic Giuly and $$$ for Adrian Mutu..... Hope prandelli and della valle tell them to get F****d
New shirt released. I think it's pure class, and I love it! I know some on this thread were asking about it some time ago. http://www.fiorentina.it/notizia.asp?IDNotizia=50891 http://www.acffiorentina.it/it/NewsDetail.aspx?Id=83464 Video: http://www.acffiorentina.it/it/Dettaglio.aspx?Id=109535&mediatype=video
It really is a class shirt... I feel, though, that a lot of the fans of other teams will not understand it as it has no stripes...
I want it!!!!!!!!!!!!! That is a freaken awesome kit right there pal. Im just gettin goosebumps whilst picturing a scudetto winner's badge on it.
Hey, I recently started to get interested in Fiorentina. I absolutley love their jerseys! Does anyone own one? My question is do Lotto jerseys run small? I want to maybe get one but not if thery are really tight. I wear a size 2XL in Adidas and Nike. Thanks
Salutare, As a Romanian I have to ask you about what Fiorentina fans think about Adrian Mutu?I saw on youtube.com alot of goals,goal pases(asists} and I want to know how he playes at the construction fase. Bye & regards, Vladi
He has had a great season on and off the field. I couldn't be happier. Maurizio Zamparini is not the hugest fan, though.
I really enjoyed watching him this last season. He seems to really thrive under Prandelli, so it'll be interesting to see how next season goes. I am thrilled we have him (in his current state) on the squad.
They seem be a little bit more "fitted" than the Adidas or Nike shirts, meaning they're a little tighter around the chest, arms, and neck. If the 2XL is tight in those areas with your Nike and Adidas, then you might find this one to be a bit tight as well. The good thing is, the Lotto material seems to stretch a bit, so even if it's tight it's still relatively comfortable.
Sir, If I could, I would get Adrian Mutu's face tattooed on me. Mutu is one of the most underrated players around. Mutu in my opinion is better than Hagi. And thats saying a lot cos i love Hagi. Forza Viola!!! Forza Mutu!!!
Nah,not better than Hagi but close to Hagi.)You have to see more of Hagi's gameplay...the idea is that Hagi had a perfect game whille Mutu has some moments when he gets in front of the keeper and then stumbles or misses.Shure he has a good game,and he's the best one on our national team but still Hagi stays in a golden place in my heart. Forza Steaua!! Forza Viola!!
