		<description>think about the first 10 games of the year. 

 Napoli, Palermo are the first 2. without Totti, we&#039;ve got u&#039; cazz&#039;.
Then Atalanta, Udine, Sampdoria, Inter, Juve. this is only the first 10. so we are going to be up against these guys with what? Vuci and Monti, or Vuci and Espo up front? 
lets make some bets

who wants to be serious?</description>

		<description>can&#039;t say i care at all about arsenal

agree with Alessio. right now we are not even in it. With Gila, Fiore are stronger than Rome right now. 
nobody is asking Spaletti to say we are going to win, just that we have a solid shot. 
and while i agree with you on most things, Bashar, if you thought Mancini was rubbish (i don&#039;t think he was great but i wouldn&#039;t say rubbish) wait till we replace him with Malooser. 


and Giuly wasn&#039;t anything amazing either but wait to see how much you miss him when we have NO ONE to replace him.</description>

		<description>Well.. reading it again he doesn&#039;t actually say they will win for sure. But he&#039;s overly confident and that will come bite them in the ass. They lost a lot of quality that they have not replaced yet and think they can do better. 

Same with us right now. We can&#039;t realistically compete for the scudetto like we did last year but with 1 or 2 signings we would&#039;ve replaced Giuly and a mediocre Mancini plus we added Riise.</description>

		<description>I agree Alessio.. But Spalletti isn&#039;t going out saying that we will win the title for sure. 

The reason I bring up Arsenal is stuff like this: 
http://www.goal.com/en/Articolo.aspx?ContenutoId=807664

And this is just one of a few articles and quotes that make them really confident and I don&#039;t see how they are so confident. I have nothing against that team and I would prefer they win rather than United or Liverpool but still.

Ferrari was a bench player and Mancini was rubbish (relatively) last year. If he had stayed and performed like he did the past season he would actually hurt us rather than help us. Giuly&#039;s loss is a big one but with players like Baptista and maybe 1 more we can make up for it.

They lost 2 defensive midfielders and haven&#039;t replaced them with anybody. Nasri replaces Hleb and more but Arsenal needed a few signings last year and this year they need even more. Maybe if they got Xabi Alonso or Barry it would make up for it but they just made no real signings and think they can win the CL and title? I don&#039;t buy it.</description>

		<description>at a complete loss on the malouda thing. 

how much are they looking to spend on him? how much did we get for Giuly, 2.5 m. euro? and we are going to replace him with a guy who scored 2 times in 20 games. what the fuck was he playing in those games, fullback? 

(Ludi hit the net 17 out of 32 times and Cici scored as much as Malouda last year) 

this is the stupidest transfer market i have ever seen

...and i thought the Ljungberg thing was a joke. that dude better come with a walker and a sippy-cup. for that much coin i could get my grandfather out on the pitch and have enough left for two real strikers. 

i wish someone would pass the crack pipe so that the fans can feel as comfortable about all of this as the higher powers. who are we kidding - we struggled last year with AM and LG, we traded them and are looking for replacements who make them look like they were champions when we had them. so we are now going to have to struggle more this year?

why do we not have cash? Sensi runs a damn oil company. who was not making buckets of money selling oil this year? this is total bullshit.</description>

		<description>i don&#039;t think Baptista is going to replace Mancini - i think he is going to be more a replacement for Giuly with the line-up shuffled. he is an attacking midfielder who can be played up flexibly (see my previous question to john silver), but i am not really sure how he is going fit in. i think he will prove useful against teams like Milan and Inter, possibly Fiorentina.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m pumped that we finally have a mancini replacement. Baptista should be a fun player to watch I have always been impressed with his strength</description>
