Line from today's Gazetta: "Serie A is a tournament in which various teams compete, and then at the end Zlatan Ibrahimovic wins"


:lol:

And Milan wins it. It's Zlatan's 8th consecutive league title (including the Juventus one that got stripped)

Congrats to Milan and coach Max Allegri, who won the scudetto in his first season with the team.

In the summer they weren't looking great, then they add Ibra, Robinho, Boateng, along with a few others to strengthen the bench. and then bring in Cassano and Van bommel during the Jan. transfer window.

Miccoli shows why goalies shouldn't always guess which way to dive on a PK:

Staying in the middle might as well be guessing "middle" though.

Haven't been following Serie A so was really surprised to hear Sampdoria got relegated. From CL qualification to relegation :eek:

Lol ya they were minutes away from champions league. Mazzarri leaving for Napoli last summer hurt them a lot, he helped average players look like stars. Then Cassano and Pazzini, who literally carried them through games last year, were sent away to the Milan clubs.
