    Palermo have some players and Genoa, two sides that really should be doing better. Roma will be good in a few years.

    Some Brazillian and Argentinian football could be prescribed for insomniacs

    There's still some talent, but it is starting to age a bit :( And the title may be open, but the football being played is not what it used to be.

    Hence why they lost the 4th CL spot to das Germans! Hopefully that was a wake-up call but there is still talent in the Italian league, not necessarily ITalian players but there is talent htere.

    looked good at times, but losing to genoa and lazio (i think, don't quote me on that) has damaged their chances a bit. They play milan at the weekend who have only lost once so far to juve so i wouldn't really back them this weekend

    Luis Enrique is trying to get them to play the Spanish style and is already at odds with Totti as the supporters want him to play, Totti obviously does, but he is not the long term for Roma or LE. Bojan still needs to come good, Pjanic I think was a good buy, and jury out for Ozvaldo I have not seen enough of. They lost Mexes which hurt, got Stekelenberg which was good as well. THey were unlucky against Lazio but it is very obvious a change in personel, how they want to play etc.

    They are one for the future at the moment, while Lazio went and bought our boy Cisse and Klose to add firepower to a pretty strong team and kept hold of Hernanes, two very different thoughts one building for now, one for later.

    well, as far as i can see, osvaldo is playing well and de rossi is still a fairly class act. I feel that their back four is not what it used to be and gago and perotta aren't the best players to accompany de rossi. It looks likely he'll leave totti out again and play boriello, bojan and osvaldo so the fans may not be happy

    Its mad how much of a hold Totti has over that club. He's probably the only person I can think of that's bigger than the actual club he plays for.

    Totti must be the most overrated player of all time.

    Ya the defense is shaky, but I understand why he does that to Totti, but Totti coming off the bench should put fear into teams. Is it Burdisso who usually plays with de rossi? If it is the right one he is good I think. Tadei still gets games, he is ancient too, haha.

    it is a bit ridiculous, but the fans of italian teams have a lot more sway in what happens in the club. so i suppose, if you're a fans favourite, you do have a lot of impression on the team.

    I think Juve's fans signle-handedly got their new stadium, they complained for years that they hated delle alpi and I guess they finally gave in. Moved to a smaller stadium at that I think!

    i think they're playing him at the back atm, due to the heinze being ****e.
    i only think the new one holds 41000 but it may have room for expansion

    Man City fans booing like **** because they are drawing with wolves.

    Such a small club should revel in games against vastly bigger football clubs :D

    They expect loads of goals every game now, it doesn't work like that.
