I think Torino should go for Giovinco.

I think most teams in Italy should but he is going to stay in Canada


I am curious to see where El Shaaraway ends up. He was looking like a lock for Italy at Euros this summer and would be a huge addition for Roma or Fiorentina.

Inter knocked Napoli out of Coppa. They will play the winner of Juve-Lazio today. The other semi-final matchup is Milan vs the cinderella story Alessandria of Serie C

It was a stupid goal to concede but Roma will play Juve so no problem for my bet.

Spalletti is smart to put De Rossi in center D with a back 3. I haven't seen enough of this Vainqueer guy but hopefully he is trash because otherwise it is a good Roma lineup.
Juve's is solid but Sandro is better than Evra of course

ref wrongly called Dybala off as he hits crossbar, mandzu would have scored the rebound

he's exceeded all of my expectations. So happy we got both of them.

Best player in the Serie A has to go to either Higuain, Insigne, or Dybala. The Juve back three deserve a shoutout also

Told you to be hyped about him last summer. If you can hold him, you have your new Del Piero.

Our passing was horrible last night, lucky that Roma couldn't use it to their advantage. Reffing was horrible as well btw. Hate italian refs these days.
Dybala is superb though, I hope we get to keep him for a long time, since Pogba is gone this summer.

Yea you said it from the start. Last season he was allowed to just stand and wait for balls as a center forwrd, so I was not sure if he would really be able to take over the Tevez role. But he already made us forget Tevez and is even better at this young age.

Also there will be rumors every day about Pogba leaving but I think there is a good chance he stays. We have a special team right now-- there are only two teams in the world who are better, and we will see if we can take one of them down next month.

I'm most impressed with Marchisio. He has been great in his new role.

Marchisio has always been very underrated. Magnificent player. World class. Better than likes of Kroos etc.

So Coppa Italia today, Juve vs. Inter. What have you got? Juve's 11 seems to be:

Neto
Caceres - Bonnuci - Chiellini
Cuadrado - Marchisio - Asamoah - Pogba - Evra
Mandzukic - Morata

Zaza won't play, Pereira, Lemina, Khedira won't play either.

Juve 2-1 Inter.

Juve should win for sure. Hopefully today is the day Morata breaks his goal draught.
