So much jinx for this player.
The Dutch Giuseppe Rossi.

Oh wow that sucks

Sarri with a decent CF would play an unreal Serie A ffs

Roma is carrying on negative moment, some players as Pjanic isn't playing well for some time

Fixed

Role reversal today. Empoli played the way we should've been playing.

Didn't defend too well in the first 20 minutes, but that improved as the game wore on. Midfield looked ok as well, but goodness me...no attack again.

Chance creation is the biggest problem we have right now. It's not injuries, it's not suspensions, it's no the opposition.

I have never seen these players so shot shy. It's baffling. We keep trying to walk the ball into the net and go down the middle, not using the flanks properly, and are just not taking our chances.

Someone needs to tell these lads that you miss 100% of the shots you don't take.

Credit to Empoli though....those lads surely enjoyed that game. Played with freedom and expression. Sarri has them playing really well.

@Rob: I think it may be possible for him to return just before the season, just like Destro last year.

I have hope that Parma would avoid relegation, they have better players now.

Mbiwa, Pjanic should have received a red card, and there was a penalty when Mbiwa elbowed the Empoli attacker...

Rudi Garcia, open your eyes and shut your mouth please, cause the refs are now favouring you after you have opened your mouth...

You kidding right? Naingollan, Pjanic, Florenzi were firing every shot...

That finishing
Hope he can improve that, but whatever, that's a hilarious one

Empoli's red card though

How come no one posted this in here



Milan released a statement outlining their plans for a new 48,000-seater stadium in the Portello area of the city.

The project has been in the works for some time and today the club confirmed it has made a bid for the land, hoping to open the arena in 2018-19.

The stadium are would include a hotel, a school for the sports academy, restaurants, playground areas and spaces for young artists to showcase their work.


Milan’s staff studied more than 70 stadiums around the world when drawing up the project with Arup, who designed Bayern Munich’s Allianz Arena.

The stadium is meant to fit into the architecture of the city, so would be only 30m above ground compared to San Siro’s 60m.

New technology would prevent the sound seeping out of the stadium and public transport links aimed at minimising traffic congestion.


So Inter stays in the San Siro?

Florenzi excluded, they are not attackers.

Ljajic kept dribbling into trouble and before he was taken off Totti simply couldn't affect the game while Iturbe was bright, but still didn't get into the right positions. Hopefully Doumbia and perhaps Ibarbo will help with taking those chances we do get, but I think we're not using the ball well enough still and that's the biggest issue as this possession is not leading to enough clear cut chances.

Sansone

FFS, CAN WE CONSIDER DI FRANCESCO GOAT?!?!?! HOLY COW!

Just read that Juan Iturbe is out for the season as well.

Double ligament damage to his right knee and right ankle.

Poor lad....he's gotta be gutted. Another huge blow for us along with Strootman and Castan being out as well.

what happened to inter

Inter have been shit for years now, I thought the World knew this.

Evidently, Sassuolo is where all of Italy's best strikers want to be.

Inter

Guarin and Icardi in a row with the fans

When did Gabbiadini move to Napoli ffs

Quagliarella hattrick

Quag hattrick & Amauri goal Torino, team of Juve rejects

Bruno Peres Maicon's heir

Meanwhile Lazio losing 2-0 to Cesena.

One man team. Can't function without felipe


Juve being held by Udinese. Heard LLorente was awful

Allan has dominated Pogba this game. Great player. Hopefully he comes to United (:

Napoli within 4 points of Roma. Can they catch up?
