Goal scoring leaders after two matches: Del Piero 4 Inzaghi 3 Cruz, Doni, Adriano, Hubner, Vieri, Simeone 2 And in Serie B: Maniero, Oliveira, Casale 3 Ganz, Borgobello, Calaio, Protti, Chevanton 2
I'm not sure but I think this will be a close one maybe Divaio and DelPiero will be the couple of the year!!! Vieri or Crespo should be considered contenders too!
But you can't leave Inzaghi out of the picture. As for Vieri or Crespo... well, that's the question, isn't it!! Will they play together leaving Recoba on the side? And if they DO play together, will they play WELL together. Both are used to being THE guy. Much remains to be learned about Inter.
Oh, I see - are you talking about goal-scoring pairs? Good one. I'd agree those are definitely the top two pairs. When is Shevchenko coming back?
Sheva will return at the end of October if I'm not mistaken, what is going to do Anceloti with the whole crew healthy? I mean Sheva, Rivo, Dahl Tomasson and Pippo??? I'm not sure about Pippo though, maybe he's on fire right now but will fade away, he missed two EXTREMELY easy sitters yesterday against Depor, now THAT'S the pippo we all know!!! If i recall correctly el chino will play along Bobo and Crespo as they did last weekend, I'm expecting a great season for Cuper!
my bad, you're right, I remember I heard "Cuper puso toda la carne en el asador!!!" some sort of "Cuper used all his gunfire upfront!!"
Inter-Torino was the game that Crespo, Vieri, and Recoba all played in. Cuper says later in the season he'll play all three of them at the same time, just wants the team gets to know each other more and that kind of stuff.
Cuper needs to get his team to gel in the midfield and backline before he worries about Vieri and Crespo scoring goals. Leading goal scorer will be Fabrizio Miccoli.
Del Piero still leads after three matches. Totti's hat trick puts him in second. Funny to see Maldini on this list Del Piero - 5 Totti, Vieri - 4 Inzaghi, Sculli, Adriano - 3 Saudati, Di Natale, Cruz, Doni, Simeone, Hubner, Maldini, Nakamura - 2
That "Chievo guy" would be Marazzina. Gotten a couple of looks from Trap for the national team. Never thought he was that caliber when he was with Reggina, but just noticed he was called into the squad for the Euro qualifiers to replace Vieri. Here are the leading scorers after the 5a giornata. Hat trick for Pippo and double for Totti leave them tied on top. Sculli has been called up to the U-21 team for the first time. 6 Totti (Roma) Inzaghi (Milan) 5 Del Piero (Juventus) 4 Vieri (Inter) 3 Sculli (Modena) Nakamura (Reggina) Adriano (Parma) Tedesco (Perugia) 2 Saudati, Di Natale (Empoli) Di Biagio, Recoba (Inter) Maresca, Hubner (Piacenza) Cruz (Bologna) Doni (Atalanta) Baggio (Brescia) Maldini (Milan) Sensini (Udinese) Batistuta (Roma) Simeone (Lazio) And in Serie B: 4 Maniero (Palermo) Chevanton (Lecce) 3 Protti (Livorno) Oliveira (Catania) Casale (Cosenza) Bazzani (Sampdoria) Giacomazzi (Lecce) 2 Ganz, Maini, Graffiedi (Ancona), Borgobello (Ternana) Calaiò (Messina) Niculescu, Carparelli (Genoa) Ghirardello (Siena) Volpi, Gasbarroni (Sampdoria) Alteri (Cosenza) Vieri (Verona) Schwoch (Vicenza) Cordova (Bari)
Crespo got his first for inter in the serie a. That Chevanton was good last season. How old is he now? And that Maniero is the guy who played for Venezia, right? I am surprised he just got sold to Palermo. I thought it would be a serie a team, after he scored 16 goals last season. Whatever.
No changes at the top except Cruz joins Vieri on four. Inzaghi Filippo (Milan) 6 Totti Francesco (Roma) 6 (2 pens) Del Piero Alessandro (Juventus) 6 (3) Vieri Christian (Inter) 5 (1) Cruz Julio (Bologna) 4 (1) Adriano (Parma) 3 Di Natale Antonio (Empoli) 3 Sculli Giuseppe (Modena) 3 Tedesco Giovanni (Perugia) 3 Nakamura Shunsuke (Reggina) 3 (2) Pirlo Andrea (Milan) 3 (2) Chiesa Enrico (Lazio) 2 Di Biagio Gigi (Inter) 2 Hubner Dario (Piacenza) 2 Locatelli Thomas (Bologna) 2 Maldini Paolo (Milan) 2 Maresca Enzo (Piacenza) 2 Mutu Adrian (Parma) 2 Recoba Alvaro (Inter) 2 Saudati Luca (Empoli) 2 Sensini Nestor (Udinese) 2 Simeone Diego (Lazio) 2 Batistuta Gabriel (Roma) 2 (1) Doni Cristiano (Atalanta) 2 (1) Baggio Roberto (Brescia) 2 (2)
Maniero did well in A last year, Palermo bought several players such as he, Asta and Zauli looking for promotion...after a slow start it may be paying off.
After Oct 26-27 games... Serie A Inzaghi Filippo (Milan) 6 Vieri Christian (Inter) 6 (1 pen) Totti Francesco (Roma) 6 (2) Del Piero Alessandro (Juventus) 6 (3) Cruz Julio (Bologna) 4 (1) Adriano (Parma) 3 Di Natale Antonio (Empoli) 3 Mutu Adrian (Parma) 3 Sculli Giuseppe (Modena) 3 Tedesco Giovanni (Perugia) 3 Batistuta Gabriel (Roma) 3 (1) Nakamura Shunsuke (Reggina) 3 (2) Pirlo Andrea (Milan) 3 (2) Baggio Roberto (Brescia) 3 (3) Serie B Chevanton (Lecce) 6 Zampagna (Messina) 6 (1 pen) Protti (Livorno) 6 (3) Bazzani (Sampdoria) 5 Maniero (Palermo) 5 (3) Stellone (Napoli) 3 Anaclerio (Bari) 3 Bau' (Triestina) 3 Fava (Triestina) 3 Giacomazzi (Lecce) 3 Oliveira (Catania) 3 Schwoch (Vicenza) 3 (2) Suazo (Cagliari) 3 Vignaroli (Salernitana) 3 Volpi (Sampdoria) 3 (1)
So that means Pippo is the only one that is a pure goalscorer no pks!! damn!! he's on fire lately let alone his inspiration in UCL!
