So 2 games gone


Roma has 0 on 6, playing bad football (also in CL) ... will have to change soon or else ... bye bye Capello ...


Inter has 6 on 6, they're still searching their good form. Crespo is playing very well already. They're winning most of their matches (Serie A & CL) but not that convincing yet, Cuper is still working and building on his ideal team


Juventus, very convincing so far, still missing their top striker Trezeguet ... Del Piero is in amazing form already, a very good sign ... his only weak spot is his injury proness ...


AC Milan, well what can I say? Team of the moment, playing great attractive football, scoring loads of goals, very solid defence ... first time in years that Milan is playing this well in the opening phase of the season They have a great rotation system in front with Seedorf, Tomasson, Rui Costa, Rivaldo and Inzaghi ... it's working great so far and Shevchenko still has to join them. Inzaghi, sorry but I still think he can't play football ... he can't dribbel a defender, has no pass, has no left foot, has no technique, sucks in combinations ... but he's so damn fast, has incredible positioning and knows where to be, when to be to score ... and that's all what counts for a striker

Thanks for that nice summary of the Seria A at the moment John.
If I read that all.....I would say that AC Milan will be the champion of Italy this year.

You're welcome

Only 2 games down, 32 to go


It's not easy to compete in such a hard/physique competition like the Serie A, combined with the CL and the Italian Cup (where the big teams always play their best, cause it's very prestigious)


And also football is a mix of good luck, bad luck, injuries, good form, bad form, mid season transfers and suspension


For now, AC & Juve bring the best football

Seria A is the toughest competition indeed. Too bad I can´t see any of the matches here...
I always like to see them play in the CL....really good, big players.

If I could see more of the Seria A, I would maybe also like it just as much as you.

MMB

I'm sorry you can't see any matches ... that sucks ... really no program which shows summaries???


Yeah, I love the competition, fast, hard (a bit too hard sometimes), technical, ... has been my #1 fav since I was a little kid

DrTagnian

We ofcourse have Studio Sport. But they show mostly Premier League and sometimes Spain and Italian competition if there was a role for a Dutch player.

And on another channel I can see matches from England, Germany....but no other countries.

Maybe Eurosport.....but I don´t watch that channel.

MMB

You can still watch Eurosport? Cool


Try to watch Eurogoals on Eurosport ... when the channel was on here (not anymore since a few years) that was a very good, complete football show ... I even wonder if it's still on

DrTagnian

I have seen a summary of different competitions once on Eurosport when I was ´zapping´.
I try to search for it and watch it. I have no clue when it is on, but I will look for it in the tv magazine.

It used to be on Monday evening

AC Milan & Juventus both lost their first points tonight ...

AC got in front by a goal by Maldini early on against Lazio ... but AC couldn't dominate the game as they did so far in every game ... Lazio started to get more chances. A free kick by Jaap Stam hit the post and Dida had a good reflex later on ... Lazio became stronger, so it was obvious that the home team would come back and so they did through a goal by Claudio Lopez. 1-1 was the final result

Juventus on the other hand played against Parma at home. They played a horrible game ... Nakata and Adriano scored and put Parma 0-2 in front ... in the 87th minute Tudor was finally able to make 1-2 ... there were 3 additional minutes counted, but the ref let them play 5 minutes extra !!! And of course after almost 5 minutes overtime Del Piero scored the 2-2 ... a tricky goal cause he touched the ball with his hand ... a result that Juve didn't deserve ...


Good news for Inter, who plays at home against Chievo tomorrow, they can take the lead and leave AC & Juve behind, if they win
