Saturday Afternoon Hangover
By Gianfranco | December 22nd, 2007Well it’s that time of year again, the Derby della Madonnina. This year the Derby has extra special meaning even though Mancini claims that he feels no rivalry with Good Guys of Milan. This is the same Mancini who belittled the Rossoneri’s Champ
Milan 1 - Catania 2
By Gianfranco | December 21st, 2007Dear Ricky Kaka: Your brother sucks, you have worked wonders for us in the front, but in your brother's small chance in the winning eleven he gave up two goals, and made a ton of gaffers. If you were not in top form, and a huge piece of the Milan puzz
Random Parma Video 6- Adriano, The Wasted Brazilian Talent
By Francesco | December 18th, 2007When you see this video you'll see just how much of a wasted talent Adriano is. At Parma, this guy was awesome. Such power and strength, and a left foot that could break a brick wall. He really could've been one of the greatest, if not THE greatest st

By roberto | November 27th, 2007By now you've read the articles, heard the news, and seen the highlights. Juventus simply dismantled Palermo. So much so in fact, that Palermo's Head Coach was fired just a few hours after the match. Now that's what I call dismantled. Really, the only pos
Dessena and Cigarini, the ones everyone wants
By Francesco | November 18th, 2007It seems that for the past few days the only time you see news about Parma it's a rumor about these two going to a big club, or our sporting director Giovanni Bia (decent defender, used to play for Bologna in the mid-90's when Baggio, Signori, Inges
A Short Essay: Sportsmanship, Emphasis On Sports & Man
By roberto | November 16th, 2007Another game, some more terrible refereeing. Another unnecessary loss of life, another hurdle for Serie A. What a mess. So, what can we learn from this week's lesson in Italian Calcio? Well, it's been a tough week to swallow that's for sure. Speaking of m

Tuesday Milan Musings
By Gianfranco | August 21st, 2007-Congrats to Roma for destroying the Argie Allstars & Amigos. At times Roma showed some flashes of style but this is still preseason, albeit late preseason. I have not gone back on my scudetto pick and wish Roma luck. Inter on the other hand lacked

Adriano to go?
By paolo gorini | August 15th, 2007News from Italy suggests that Massimo Moratti has turned down a 15 million euro bid from Valencia for Adriano. No sooner do I talk about the "embarrassment of riches" we have in attack than Moratti looks to move some of them on... "25 million is what I wa
Pre-season is PANTS, except when...
By paolo gorini | August 14th, 2007...It involves Inter beating Juve. Sure, it is only the Trofeo TIM at the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza, that tinpot trophy which involved three teams playing forty-five minute matches which must produce a result. They are all the vogue in fashion-conscious I
Super Suazo - A Hungry Honduran
By paolo gorini | August 14th, 2007The signing of David Suazo will prove to be one of the best of any team in Europe over the coming twelve months. The Honduran has established himself as one of the best strikers in Serie A over the past three years with Cagliari and with the Sardinian sid

E Meglio Nastro Azzurro
By gianfranco z | August 10th, 2007After an interesting series of games against Newcastle, Hamburg, and Sunderland we came out winless but with good match experiences and good research for coash Claudio Ranieri. It was obvious it was going to be a difficult test for the Bianconeri as all
HOLY SH*T!!!
By Giuseppe | July 27th, 2007I sure hope enough people read my blog page to get what I'm about to post. I was doing my daily net surfing, and was checking on the AC Milan Page, since they seem to be one of the only Serie A team that also updates their english site. Today, July 26 was

Funny Thought
By Gianfranco | June 22nd, 2007Suazo may not be so thrilled on his AC Milan move and the sudden team change. David, need I remind you that the only thing different in a move from AC to Inter is the jersey color and your teamates being from all over the world, instead of just from Arge
Milan Musings
By Gianfranco | June 22nd, 2007There is a quiet eery calmness that I feel will not last forever regard this Suazo matter. Inter is definitely fuming and in Moratti’s fit of rage in which he claimed Suazo had already signed may cause the club to incur some sanctions. Suazo, who was
Someone get Moratti a tissue
By Gianfranco | June 19th, 2007As I expected Inter will not go down without a fight in this Suazo transfer. It is official it can be with player agent, Cagliari director and AC Milan announcing the transfer. I have to admit it looked pretty official last week when Suaz was supposed t

Why not Tevez?
By Gianfranco | June 14th, 2007I would like to make a few observations about the Carlos Tevez move to Inter after some discussion with RealJohn and others on a prior post. Tevez would be a great target for AC Milan with huge upside, youth, and brimming with confidence but it is almost
Inter: New Graduates of the Juventus School of Valuation
By Chris | May 30th, 2007A few nuggets for today: 1. The front page of Il Romanista reports this morning of an offer from Internazionale. Nothing new, they have always coveted Roma players. What's new here is the offer. And take to heart Il Romanista is the newspaper of AS Rom
Transfer Rumors, aka: Hey Juve, Wake the @#$% Up
By Chris | May 23rd, 2007On the biggest day of club football during the year, newspapers would much rather report on who might be moving where this summer. Makes sense. Let's roll with them. Il Romanista and a couple others had a few tasty nuggets for us to chew on: 1. Philipp
