big week for Italian teams in Europe. Juve must secure first in their group with at least a draw tomorrow, Roma must beat BATE. Fiorentina must beat Belenenses.
Ideally Man Utd and Arsenal will fail to advance, but I'm not holding my breath

The Lippi to Roma rumors picked up lots of steam after today's loss. I'd love to see Lippi back in Serie A.
Rumor is that Rudi must win against Genoa to save his job, but why bother giving him that chance? say they win, they will still lose by a record setting amount to Real Madrid in CL and finish outside of top 3 in Italy...

Don't see how this is relevant considering only Pjanic played in that game. You've also been bringing this up a lot recently and I'm still waiting for you to show me where anybody said that

Meanwhile, many of us are still waiting on Kondogbia to be the 2nd best midfielder in Inter let alone Serie A :lol:

Garcia needs to go, anybody would be an upgrade at this point.

Maybe you meant Melo is a top 5 UFC fighter Massi? That might be more accurate than top 5 DM.
:rofl2: :rofl2: :rofl2:

On a serious note this is one of the worst challenges I have seen in a while. They should ban him for at least 7 games, IMHO. Could've killed him.

He almost broke sanchez's leg last year cause he couldn't keep up with any of our players. Don't know how he keeps getting chances at big clubs. Horrible player , flamini level and even flamini doesn't cost his teams this much lol

I can find at least 10 top players who have tackled someone like this in their career. So what are we going to say they are bad players? Lmao since when you judge someone based on one action or tackle in the game. It happens. Zidane headbutt materazzi in one of his most important game in his career. What do we say zidane was a bad player?

Yea sure flamini level. With this much knowledge of football, i am not surprised you support raptors and arsenal.

Lol, only 3 pts behind, even I didn't hope for this much by the end of December. Inter will keep losing points, they're just not good enough. The only team who can keep Juve from #1 for a while is Napoli.

I cant rember anyone recently who was looking to take out the opposing players head with his studs that high. But go ahead give us some names.

And no the Zidane foul doesnt count in this category. It was much, much less severe than this one.

Even dirty douche Pepe didnt aim for the poor guys head a few years back.

Melo named one of his kids after Gary Lineker so he's alright in my book

This is less severe than Melo's tackle? It is really becomes a torture to talk to you. Seriously, I don't wanna ignore you as I used to but you are forcing me to do it.

Melo's tackle is nothing like you make it sound like. He hits the ball, when his leg was coming down, it was on players shoulder as he was too close, then he made a tackle which was to push him - clear red card - but Melo's shoes did not touch him whatsoever. It is not like he smashed his face with his bottom of shoes. he pushed him with his calf. That's it.

Roy Keane, Rooney, Zidane, Pepe, Gattuso etc etc.

My favorite part of the video is the russian commentators laughing about Melo's kicking radius, like they had just been watching some MMA fights before the match lol

I'm not sure whether you are blind or what else is wrong with you but that is exactly what happened as you can see in the video I provided. This is the most wreckless behaviour on the pitch I have seen in a while...again in UFC it might be common but I don't remember anyone managing to kick another players head in quite a while.

Also read what I'm writing. I didn't say Pepe was less severe. I said ZIDANE was less severe. Obviously, Pepe is the biggest hooligan around. Only thing I said even Pepe himself didn't aim to kick off a head with his studs high.

Watch it again then. His shoes doesn't touch the player. He pushed his shoulder with his calf.

Anyway, it is a clear red to push him with his calf anyway.
