Serie A 2015/2016

Khedira's already picked up an injury, out for 2 months. As much as I wanted him here, we probably dodged a bullet.

Serie A starts again tonight. Interested to see how Milan and Inter's new team will do this season.

Inter look the better of those 2 on paper anyway.

Milan need to be bought out, otherwise they're not going to invest anything into the playing staff. It's a real shame seeing Milan shit

Qwiss

Thats what happens when you lose Flamini.

Where's Ranocchia? Injured? Or do you expect Inter to bench their captain for Murillo?

I think Guarin will have a spot reserved for him in the starting eleven this season too. I'm not sure Brozovic will be in the team on the other hand. He wasn't starting much last year and he was mostly poor when he came on. Then again, Medel wasn't greit either. He crippled them too much in the buildup. My gut feeling is that either Brozovic or Medel lost their place to Kondogbia this summer. My moneys on Medel at the moment.

I don't know, that's not my team. It's the predicted team by Guardian.

Ain't they already bought out? Which is why they spent so much this season. Almost half of their lineup is new.

Not watching the game but Milan are 2-0 to Fiorentina 😆

Milan yet to have a shot on target and it's nearly the end

I was found a stream for the Sassuolo game, and Domenico Berardi got a yellow three minutes after I tuned in. Glad to see he's keeping his record intact. He ended last season with more yellow cards than goals (which is pretty impressive, considering he scored 15 goals).

When you are that skilled you're allowed to misbehave though. Look at his assist for Sassuolo's first goal tonight:

Klaus

Sassuolo 2 - 1 Napoli FT. Sassuolo start the season with a heavy scalp. Second goal was a class diving header from Nicola Sansone, who's another really good youngster in that team.

Klaus

Stevan Jovetic's 90 minute winner today was a beauty:

I would gladly have taken him off City's hands this summer. He's such a good talent.

Mirth

Nice goal but that marking was Sunday league level

Klaus

It was in the 94th minute to be fair and they'd just defended a corner, which is why everyone was in the box.

I think the fact that he looked to curl it into that corner says a lot of him as a player. I reckon most guys would have gone for the near post instead the second they got into the box.

Klaus

This freekick from Pogba was absolutely amazing by the way:

Proving that Juve won't miss a beat without Pirlo this season.

Mirth

Hey at least it went into the crowd. That's better than what Soldado managed

Bold Tone

How does this guy not get into a pisspoor Brazilian team?
He could teach our players a thing or two about getting to the by-line.

Klaus

He's a real blast to watch. Highlight reels don't do him justice for some reason. I don't know why. He seems like a streaky player unfortunately, but there was a couple of months last season where he singlehandedly took apart every team in Serie A.

Yeah he's definitely inconsistent. Started the season really poorly again. Was pathetic against Bayer

Clrnc

Dzeko makes it 2-0 against Juve. Can't believe Juve is starting the season with 2 losses.

Mirth

They're down to 9 men...
