He was offered €50 for Koulibaly and passed it up to make some dumb rear end statement about FIFA's cup rules??

Well he's a good defender, ADL is saying he didn't sell any others because Koulibaly will be out for the ACN so he needs the backup.

A high percentage of the posts here are made by Juve and Milan supporters, which accounts for most of the reason, I think.

Inter can't play Jovetic, Kondogbia, or either of their new signings Joao Mario and Gabigol in Europe because of FFP.

canepazzo
May 29, 2006



Two different FFP rulings affecting 3 different teams:

- From what I understood Inter cannot field a new signing unless it is equal or higher value of another player they sold this window; this is due to being under investigation for FFP even before this summer splurging (they're above 50 millions deficit when they should have had a balance of purchases and sales afaik, but with the new property it means that the FFP rules are more relaxed);

- Juventus's I believe is literally a numbers issue, they have too many players,
and 8 slots (out of 25) are reserved for 4 players who played in Italy for 36 months or 3 football seasons between the ages of 15 and 21 (extremes included), and 4 with the same limitation, but have to have played for the club. There are rumours that it is however a punishment due to pushing for an Inter transfer / refusing to renew contract?


- Fiorentina has the same issue with Toledo, Diks and Hagi, but I think we'll survive~

Napoli left out Tonelli and Roma left out Mario Rui, due to injuries. Sassuolo can probably field 750 players due to their autarchic football team selections.

Also she already had told me she wants to talk to me more because she goes to Florence in 2018 for studying abroad and I might get to go too.

She also said that she might consider letting me watch Serie A for "cultural events" of which two are mandatory. Best college course

Ballardini left himself and that is very understandable. The transfer window has been nothing short of a disaster, and no manager should sink so low, as to coach this sack of poo poo, which is the current Palermo team. Absolutely disgraceful.

ben arfa wasted the last few seasons and is also mental and then he went to nice and scored all the goals and got a transfer to PSG out of it

Yeah I was actually a little bummed he moved to PSG because that could have been a really fun arrack with balo and him. They did bring in Younes Belhanda to slot in behind on loan and since I've heard of his name I think he's probably good or something idc. Apologies if I'm getting too Ligue 1 for our Serie A thread.

That was him moving flats from one place outside Florence to the same place outside Florence, but a smaller flat.

Mediaset saw the moving company and called it "Sousa has quit and is moving back to Portugal".
