'I didn't fix the game! I'm really that shite!'

Totti comes on to score with his first touch to level the game and then gets the winner a few minutes later. Probably going to his last goals for Roma.

Amazing player.

That was so nice to see. Some narratives just write themselves.

He's the last link to football from the late 90s/early 00s. Will be sad to see him go.

Sky Sport Italy report Ranieri is trying to get Totti for a one year contract next summer. Sounds like bullshit but then I thought the same when they got Cambiasso

5th straight Scudetto for Juve

Such stiff competition in the Serie A...

Actually, in all the years you could levy that accusation, this isn't one of them. Juventus had the worst possible start to the season but I think they've picked up 75 out of a possible 78 points since the end of October.

You're only proving my point. Gutter league.

No, I'm disproving your point by saying that last season's Champions' league finalists are really quite good.

Obviously it's not the best league in the world - for a variety of factors - but it's not a gutter league. Particularly since the Premier league are at risk of losing a CL place to Serie A.

This season has actually proved that Serie A is not that good and competitive. Every team crumbled when they face Juventus and the gap is as big as it can get in Europe bar PSG in a shitter league. It's so uncompetitive it's a joke.

That's not to take anything away from the fact that Juventus is superior with an excellent manager though. Just look at this, combination of shit teams vs a good team.

PL is also not at risk of losing a spot to them anymore for at least the next 4 years after Serie A's terrible performances in Europe this season.

Juventus came within a minute of throwing Bayern out of the competition and reached the CL final last season. I'm pretty sure they'd be champions in the EPL by now as well.

Not sure we're in any position to talk about gutter when the closest rival to the league leaders in England are perennial bottlers Spurs.

Indeed, never mind teams crumbling to Juventus - Leicester have barely had serious opposition to the title since January!

Aye, Serie A has been a lot more competitive this season than Premier League, that's for sure. And that's despite the fact that Juve's form has been out of this world. Napoli trailed them for a long while even though they had absolutely no business being at the top.

The goal that won Juve the title btw

Utter gutter league indeed

Klose just scored a class goal against Inter. Chipped the keeper from like 9 yards. Legend.

Roma's last four games before and after Totti comes on.

The man is a walking legend.

Higuain scores his 34th and 35th of the season today.

Equals a record that has stood in the serie A for 66 years or something like that. Not too shabby for someone without the talent and support of the likes of Suarez, Ronaldo or Messi

Or perhaps it's just a G______ league nowadays.

^^ Fill in the blank Jonesy

Just got his hattrick with an overhead kick.

Sets a new record with 36 goals.

We better buy this cat now.

36 goals in Serie A means he's probably almost as good as Defoe or Troy Deeney. Maybe we should take a punt

Higuain's bicycleta:

There's a coppa italia final between Milan and Juventus tonight at 7:45 if anyone's interested.

And that's why we should buy Morata. Bloke's a born goalscorer. It took him three minutes to decide the Coppa Italia. Not even Allegri could stop him this time.

One of the most underrated strikers of the previous generation has retired today. 

He was arguably the best striker on the planet for a year or two when Inter bought him. I had no idea he was retiring. I always loved watching him play. Such elegance, such intelligence.

It was a shame he didn't get much recognition for Inter's treble season. He wasn't on the Ballon d'Or shortlist and was stuck on the bench for the World Cup for Argentina.

Funny that you mentioned Morata being great in big games because I remember Milito did that for Inter. Scored the goals to win Serie A, Copa Italia, and then the UCL.

After buying Alex Teixeira, Jiangsu Suning have bought...Inter!

39 year old Francesco Totti extends his contract with Roma for another year.
