Mancini
Arrivederci, Amantino
By: chris |Alessandro Faiolhe Amantino Mancini
Mancinigate turned into “Hey, that wasn’t so bad”. Apparently Inter have saved all of their drama for the Lampard pursuit.
The final details aren’t known because the deal won’t become official until Mancini returns from vaca early next week, but it appears right now the fee is somewhere between 13m-15m and Mancini will [...]
Some Thoughts On…Onwards
By: chris |On Catania: We all saw two games because there were two games. The dejection which set in after it was clear Inter had scored brought about an interpretation of depression in footballing form. After that, with Catania buoyed by the goal and the knowledge that they needed a draw because Empoli was winning, it was [...]

David Pizarro.:
I saw these “Pizaman to Athletico” rumors and immediately dismissed them, because the thought of Spal without David is like the thought of Linus without his blanket, Marcello Lippi without his cigar or Cristiano Ronaldo without his air of scumbaggishness (tis a word, per Webster). But some central midfielders started to pop [...]

Empoli 2-2
Livorno 1-1
Siena 0-3
Hosting Tuscany:
Siena 2-0
Fior 1-0
Empoli 2-1
Here’s to [...]
Poll of the Indeterminate Amount of Time: Amantino
By: chris |Alessandro Faiolhe Amantino Mancini
SportMedia, an outlet I have zero familiarity with (or I may and just not know it), seems to think Mr. Amantino has been in contact with Mr. Mancio and they’re all excited about getting the chance to work with each other next year. Oh, and Amantino might use his Webster ruling clause [...]
Venerdi Vitriol ! (and some Mercato musings)
By: Marco Stucazzo |The Roman Derby was Lazio’s most important game of the season. Francesco Totti even laid flowers in front of the Curva Nord, purely because he’s classy. Add to that the fact that Lazio’s European ambitions ended a long time ago and the death of Gabriele Sandri and you have all the ingredients necessary for a [...]
And The Feeling Coming From My Bones…

Inter – Roma, Unconditional Calcio Love
By: Marco Stucazzo |38 games a season and it all comes down to this one!
Inter – Roma
La Liga’s big clashes manage to catch my eye but I can’t seem to get excited about the Ping Pong-ish style of The Premiership. (And don’t get me started on the damn USL league!) I, for one, love Calcio unconditionally. Unfortunately, [...]
