Many teams seem to be melting down at the end of the year.

Inter Vecchi's press conference mentioned that while Inter is a good group, there are some players that absolutely don't deserve wearing the Inter jersey ever again.

Hope Fiorentina can restart a new cycle like in 2012 with Montella but the current situation looks more like 2010 with Mihajlovic... :smith:

Other than swapping in Berardi for Eder, and Gagliardini for Montolivo, this looks like a solid squad right now.

I didn't realize that Emerson was eligible for the Azzurri, that's a nice pick-up.

ADL announced that Mertens finally signed a contract extension. It has a €30m release clause, but it's only valid for teams in China.

So in other words, Mertens will be playing in China a year from now.

Nice to see Scuffet back in the mix too. Ventura must have a hard on for Montolivo because he's only played two matches since returning from injury. Now's the time I guess, it is the "easiest" qualifier.

I'd rather have Berardi or Balotelli (!) than Eder but Eder keeps coming up with goals for the national team so it's hard to complain. I'd like to see Chiesa and Conti at some point too.

It's not a bad team, pretty good even.

I thought Italy was full of racists and as such didn't hold with getting a bunch of foreigners into their national team.
But I guess they just have no shame and are claiming that various Brazilians are actually Italian.

Italy's had south Americans in the national team since the World Cup became a thing, and probably before that.

Because he's a fat money grubbing oval office but he's insanely good at being an agent and knows talent when he sees it. Milan and him have a lot of business in general, I'm sure it stemmed from that.

Hegay posted:

This is the only thing that makes me think that the Milan owners actually have money; maybe they really did have to jump through a pile of new regulations to finalize everything.

But more than likely they're just broke lol

Yeah the team is actually owned by a hedge fund that loaned 75 million to these "investors" who have to pay it back in like a year or pay it back in installments at 7+ percent per month or something. I just hope someone in this group is good at money laundering or financial crimes like Big Silvio was.

I was doing the same thing to be honest. I see Bacca missed a penalty or had it saved.

It was a really good save by the keeper, but then he fouled Bacca later to give Lapadula the peno that he converted.

And now Paletta is sent off.

Five dismissals this season, some kind of record surely.

I won't miss him if he fucks off, to be honest.
