Berardi scored a neat freekick against Milan today, his 8th goal against them in 4 or 5 games. The Milan fans cheered when he went off towards the end because it meant no more goals.
Big fan of Ghoulam.
Salah with a wonderful goal for Roma to put them in front.
Then Gervinho scores with a superb counter attack. Tearing Serie A apart again.
Gabbiadini being left on the bench again. Sarri is an idiot.
Harsh, he's got Napoli playing their best football probably since the days of Maradona. The competition for the front three/four is very strong to be fair to him.
Think that's quite an exaggeration personally. He's got a long way to go before he matches Mazzarri's side a few years back.
To be fair to him, though, Gabbiadini was probably rested today after playing midweek. Mertens was on the bench too.
Are Napoli winning. I've got a good payday coming my way if they win tonight
They won.
Klaus, sure it's too early to say he's built a better side than Mazzarri a few years back but I think this team is much more entertaining to watch, plus it has a lot more game changers than the teams which outside of Cavani and Hamsik relied on the likes of Pandev and Dzemaili.
They had Lavezzi too who was pretty awesome for a few seasons. But yeah, this version is more entertaining. I can't see it do any real damage in Champions League though, while Mazzarri's Napoli definitely could.
Goodstuff.
I'm not convinced by insigne though
Lavezzi was quality but they were overall a weaker side when he was playing for them. Should have had a bigger career in my opinion, his goal vs Milan was top class:
Yeah, Lavezzi should have had a much bigger career. I think talent-wise he's just beneath the top tier, but his ego is world class. He's a bit like Antonio Cassano in that sense maybe, with the same unfortunate outcome.
We were linked with him the other day
Cassano is an uncanny comparison actually, both talent and personality wise. Both tend to pop up with big performances in big games too, Lavezzi was probably the best player on the pitch in the WC final 2014 and I thought back then Argentina could have nabbed it if he hadn't gone off at HT.
Pogba just scored a sensational goal against Torino.
Video of the goal:
I wouldn't term that sensational.
It's an incredible goal. A few more angles here:
He just flicks it up and socks it in. The keeper doesn't even move.
Juventus are enjoying their worst start to a league season in 46 years, it's 1-1 in the 85th minute at home against Torino... and Allegri takes off a striker and puts on another defender.
Marchisio with an insane header in the bar now. Juventus best player. Meanwhile, Padelli in the Torino goal is taking everything they throw at him, either by skill or luck. He's even overshadowing Buffon tonight.
