2014-2015 Viola Matchday Thread (R)

Good win today which cheered me up no end after watching Newcastle lose their 8th in a row and probably cement relegation yesterday . Ilicic and Valero in particular played really well. Is asking Milan to beat Napoli too much?

 

Glad we got 3 points.

Right now I'm just thinking about a silly friendly in Hartford in July.

 

It's against Porto isn't it? I think that would be a good test if it was for a cup and not just a friendly. Good team. And Quaresma is class.

 

Agree on all points.

If I could have one request, we wear our purple.

 

Speaking of kits, Porto's away strip is amazing! I'll see if I can find a pic.

Edit: Got one. http://www.worldsoccershop.com/71717.html

 

Not sure what you mean by amazing

 

Ilicic should've got a hattrick. Good game overall.

 

Berna looking like he hasn't missed a day!

 

Richards looking sharp again. Don't know why Montella doesn't play him more often.

1-1 at the half

 

Good win. Better because Bernie got to play 45.

Imagine how this season would have gone if we had Rossi. I never expected him to be out for so long.

 

Really ? With his track record?

 

How long has it been? 15 months now?

 

He has missed multiple seasons. Right now he is on the pension program soon to moving to some mid table team.

 

If we had last years Rossi, that would be another 15+ goals that we sure as hell could've used some games

 

That's what I'm saying. Games where Gomez hated us, and we just couldn't find the goal - Rossi finds the goal.

 

Yup. It's hard for anyone to argue and say that we wouldn't be third (or maybe even second) if Rossi, Baba and Berna weren't injured this season.

 

I'm not sure he even touched the ball for the 8 minutes he played

 

Huh... when was this supposed to happen again?

 

sal you love digging through posts dont you....
