I suspect we’ll see that image many many more times after a few years, DDR in the #10 shirt and wearing the armband.

Amauri…

First, he wants to come to Rome. Then, we can’t afford him. Now he’s off to Manchester…Gesu…

These 2 articles that link Roma and Man City to his departure from Palermo make me think his agent is trying desperately to drive up his price before the January. Doesn’t it seem that Roma and Man City are everyone’s favorite destination these days?

I will say this though…our lineup with Amauri would be un-freaking-stoppable. Basta.
Punto.

But wouldn’t this move make Perrotta the odd man out?

I just can’t be too happy about Georgia beating Scotland. The way Italy (and especially THIS Italy team) plays, they do much much better in a do-or-die situation. If they are given two possible positive results for a game, then in the back of their minds they’ll be playing for a tie; Scotland, playing at home and hurt in their pride after getting beaten (and beaten unquestionably, even with a dubious penalty not awarded to them) by the team 6th in the group, will be a lot more aggressive in their approach to the game. Now on paper we have all the talent and the experience to overcome pretty much every team in the world. Games are rarely played on paper, and Donadoni doesn’t seem a particularly good motivator, or a good user of the incredible talents at his disposal. Pair this with Italy’s historic bad performances at the Euro Champs in editions following a WC triumph, and I’ll be a lot more nervous during the Scotland game than during the WC final against France.

Lucio?

Didnt we just buy a great Brazilian defender? His name is Juan I believe.

I dont think one of Juan or Lucio would want to sit on the bench…

So the question is why are we going after Lucio.

Italia will beat the Scots in Scotland, or at LEAST draw.
