Serie A 2015/2016

Ahh I see. Thanks for the explanation.

I thought Lazio and Udinese were top teams in Italy, but the league table says they're only 12th and 15th, so I was wrong.

Lazio is a relatively big team. You can't compare the structure of "big clubs" in Italy to that in England though, Newcastle is a big club in England you wouldn't find many Toons in Kent though for example. Italy has a different supporter makeup.

Lazio started this season really well, not sure why they are suddenly performing so badly recently.

This year's Serie A is proving to be the most exciting in years (as long as Juve don't suddenly rack up some insane amount of wins to pull away), anyone can win it but I am rooting for Fiorentina

Klaus

Good game between Carpi and Juve so far. 2 goals in the opening 20 minutes. Borriello scored first and now Mandzukic equalizes with a cool goal after a corner.

Klaus

Mandzukic with a second goal now. He's such a good player when he's in the mood.

Klaus

Pogba makes it 3-1 after Marchisio plays a long pass that Pirlo would have been proud of.

Bryant

Think I saw the biggest individual meltdown ever! 😆 Felipe Melo

Makes a stupid foul jumping over the top for a penalty, then delivers a kung fu head kick to the Lazio player.

He's been awful this game and his passing is atrocious.

jones

He seriously needs help, has no business on a football pitch ffs.

Loved the commentators reaction for the foul, without breaking his stride talking about the penalty earlier "Melo really needs to get his act together in situations... oh my God, that's Melo again isn't it" 😆 😆

Inter lost today. As usual the top teams are taking turns to lose and now there are only 4 points seperating 5 teams. Even Milan isn't out of it yet judging from the trend this season.

Damnit, I've had a feeling all season that he was close to going full retard! I really wanted to watch the breakdown live.

Melo has to be one of the least stable footballers I've ever seen. Joey Barton doesn't hold a candle to him.

Klaus

Okay, I've watched it now and it's just 😆

Clrnc

😆 That is hilarious because he completely didn't mean it and fell so awkwardly.

jones

I'm pretty sure he meant to kick him somehow. Looks to me like he changed his mind midway through and tried to conceal the kick by falling with his ass in the air like a fucking donkey 😆

Klaus

It's like he realises the very second his boot touches the other guy's face that, "Shit, this might be one of those red card offenses I've heard about. I better play this smart!"

jones

I like how you and Bryant refer to Biglia as "the other guy" or "the Lazio player" like he's some nomark shithouse 😆

Klaus

Haha, I didn't even notice it was Biglia. I was too busy watching Melo's magic 😆

Bryant

😆 me neither. I focused more on Melo.

Felipe Melo thread poll! 😆 😆

30% of them are wrong already.

Klaus

I love that a fifth of them thought he was going to pick up 4 or more. 😆

Been watching a fair bit of serie A recently. My word the standard is shockingly poor. Inter, Milan, Samp, Fiorentina in particular are dross

jones

😆

I like Allegri, doesn't seem like the smartest guy around but I think his bad rep is not really fair on him.
