    Probably feels sorry for Italy fans. Either that or lobbed an easy question by the media that steered him to say that. I think I will like him over there.

    Last week Ibra made comments where he said they need a mix. Why, I'm not sure it has to he a mix.

    It's a start FINALLY that at least they recognize that they've overdone it. For years Milan only judged talent on their quality of dreadlocks hoping they all will turn out to be Ruud Gullit. Probably why Origi is being pushed away and why Zirkzee is not headed there.

    - I don't rate Arnautovic nor do I rate Belotti for years now but in his best season Gallo scored about 25 Goals. Has Arnautovic even hit double digits outside of China?

    - As for Scalvini, you won't find too many 20 YO Defenders that have a decent amount of Appearances in the top flight. He is rated just fine.

    Looks like Roma have picked up Antonino Gallo from Lecce. He will be replacing Spinazzola. Decent talent

    IO le voci le lascerei perdere che in italia i giornali vanno a chi spara più grossa, il problema semmai è che Fagioli è stato convocato per fare il vertice basso (riserva di Jorginho), ma non has palesato di aver caratteristiche da regista, sarebbe stato molto meglio Tonali (che non c'era per ovvi motivi)

    Sebastiano may be a headcase but his talent is undeniable. In all fairness though, Salvatore should 100% be in Serie A and is exactly what is wrong with Serie A teams at the moment. He was probably the highest rated player in B last year as a 22 year old and had a nice spell with Spezia in A two years ago. The younger Eposito is only like 18 and did ok in B last year not to mention started as a 17 year old at the U 20 World cup

    Chiesa to Aston Villa rumors starting up.

    Clubs maintaining a good relationship from the just completed Douglas Luiz deal.

    Apparently Dybala wants to re-unite at Roma but he wants to play in the UCL.

    As a Juve and Chiesa fan I hate this. Part of me says stay and accept the offer and prove asshole Motta wrong. Other part of me supports the player to go get their money.

    If he does go, hope he undoes the mediocrity that Zaniolo showed over there.

    EDIT: Joao Felix is the other Left sided player Villa may go with.

    Chiesa needs to play in his preferred role. Putting him as a 2nd Striker like Allegri did immediately after his ACL tear he's legit lost 2.5 Years.

    What happened to the 35th brotha from France Mlan were supposed to get? Instead going with another Chelsea reject instead. Strange.

    What's the deal with Antonio Raimondo? I heard Genoa is after him but that he wants to stay at Bologna. (He was on loan to Ternana.). We don't talk about him, but he's a possibility as a player who could take the next step.

    Banter aside, don't know about Chiesa to FCB anymore. Mia San Mia X'er who is a reputable source said Vincent Kompany wants him but with a strong team already in place will be difficult to find space.

    His ACL injury seems to be a stumbling block. Also, why pay 20M when he's available free this time next year.

    I’ve only seen him play at the Toulon tournament and my impression of him is that he was always in a good position, but he ate many goals. Wherever he goes, he’s going to be a sub for the main striker. He’s good at Bologna for now since Italiano is a guy who tends to rotate his squad with frequency

    I hope Immobile gets his wish and retires in the Turkish league.

    Lazio fans are ingrates more than Juve fans and want him out so what's the issue? By the hour mark of Week 1 they will look back in fondness at the time they had a 35 goal scorer.

    Galliani has come out and said that Fiorentina have sent no offers for Colpani so it looks like he’s staying out at Monza for now. Shame because he needs to get on a better team

    It's probably below the toulon level of play, but he was the star man at the 2022 Mediterranean Games (U18). And had a pretty productive season at Ternana = Although pretty productive for Italians these days = barely scraping double digit goal contributions.

    Be careful at the Toulon tournament, an experimental team showed up with players who were out of shape and who did a training session together before getting on the plane, so it shouldn't be considered indicative for the moment

    easatto!

    soprattutto durante il periodo estivo e di calciomercato, le voci sono tante.

    meglio ignorare ciò che viene detto dai media.

    Yeah I would agree what he did at Ternana was more indicative. I was just pointing out he was the best player at the Mediterranean games 2 years ago (Players eligible for 18 registered).

    Bologna look to wrap up the signing of Cambiaghi from Atalanta. This must mean that Ndoye’s exit is imminent

    1 or 2 goals all season and this warrants a big club? So laughable.

    Privilege. Probably Inter to replace old man Arnautovic.

    He should go back to Switzerland.

    Better for Cambiaghi and Orsolini. This is a huge opportunity for both now that Bologna are in the CL

    Where do you guys rank LB Depth heading into September UNL?

    This is assuming Italy follow what is rumored Arsenal will do and put Richy as a LB (which is his original position). Also going to throw Cambiaso in there even if Italy should explore him as backup to Bellanova on the Right. Of course Dimarco had a bad EC so he's on many people's shit list.

    - Calafiori, Dimarco, Cambiaso, Udogie.

    If it's a back 4 I would play Califiori and Udogie ... a back 5 Di Marco Cambiaso Udogie.

    It would be really dumb for Arteta to revert Calafiori back to a lb especially since it was at CB where he played at his best.

    Dimarco, Udogie are locks. Cambiaso I can see being shifted to right since we are in need.

    Outside looking in we have Ruggeri

    Yamal is starting for Spain and Barcelona and Milan are sending Camarda to Serie C to a hack fest league.

    I'm betting Chiellini will be involved with the FIGC and the national team.


    Giorgio Chiellini delivered a heartfelt message to American soccer fans as he set off for the Euro 2024 Final
