Image rights was the issue with Dybala

Gabbiadini with a sterling free kick to make it 1-1 right at the half time whistle in the Sampdoria - Udinese game.

And watching highlights of Roma-Brescia now. My boy Mancini looking good. He's only been there a few months but we might as well put in a cheeky bid for next summer if we want an attainable good all-around defender with leadership qualities.

He scored a goal from a Smalling assist today, and had a lovely 30 yard through ball on the grass for another close chance.

Lol calling him Maldini at this stage is OTT

They are clowns, and they know it.

True, but they've been clowns for so long and denying there was ever anything wrong that them now admitting there is a deep rooted problem is a starting point and good initial sign.

Who knows, it may all be lip service in the end but at this point in time I'd hope they were serious about tackling the issue with their FA and authorities to bring in strict rules to increase tolerance and respect whilst coming down heavily with harsh punishments on clubs and fans who circumvent these new rules.

If I had to guess I’d say they have commissioned some study or survey pertaining to the continued decreasing popularity of the league, and it’s lack of appeal to investors, and racism was found to be a top factor, and this is the only reason why they are suddenly concerned.

Read this report by Juventus recently : http://www.juventus.com/media/native/csr/Report_eng.pdf

They want someone else to clean up their shit gutter league? Start with expunging every one of the idiots involved in writing that letter.

Can't read Italian flobs can you

Ham-fisted attempt granted but I think it says the opposite of what you think it does

You misunderstand, Jones. No one/absolutely no one memes have been banned from r/dankmemes months ago for being considered too normie, which is why Flobs is calling Roma clowns.

The paper's response statement is so poor. Makes me livid.

The editor was on TV digging in his heels. He’d adamant the paper has done nothing wrong and wants people to show him the racism. He doesn’t get it. And that’s the same of people who say it will take 10 bananas to stop Lukakau, or those who say that all players get abused in Serie A and for the black players the colour of their skin is what is used against them. All these folks in Serie A fail to put themselves in the position of the other and try to empathize, understand what it’s like to be undermined and threatened because of the color of your skin. That’s what’s happening with the paper and editor when they ‘innocently’ write such a reckless headline.

I always say that the Serie A problems are Italian problems and the editor illustrated this perfectly. And will remain this way until society as a whole needs to confront racism. Attacking it at the level of football with various fifa and UEFA initiatives is useful but nowhere near what is needed to solve it

Gattuso is back 😆

Love it, true entertainer.

Dejan Kulusevski with a goal and an assist against Napoli tonight. Bloke is only 19 years old and built like a powerplant. He has 4 goals and 6 assist in Serie A during his first 16 games as a professional footballer. I think he's tied for most assists in the league now.

Started to notice him after our best scout here Bryant mentioned him. Looks good.
