Ferrara searches for Fullbacks

By: alessio |

67 Comments

There has been several refreshing changes under Ferrara’s regime, there were many times under Ranieri’s reign in which he would never do things that everyone called for, such as switching player positions, or players’ status within the team.

Player Ratings: Juventus Season 2008-2009

By: alessio |

59 Comments

As part of the first portion of a seasonal review (hurrah unemployment) I’ve decided to, like last year, do a rating for every player who took part this season. Ratings, are of course opinionated by nature, but that’s probably why we like them so much, as fans of Calcio, so we can debate and argue. [...]

Five points from the last eighteen available- no kidding we’re in third. Thankfully, Udinese continued their winning ways and defeated the Rossoneri 2-1 this evening to close the gap between us and second to just four points. The rest is up to us.

Derby della Mole; Desperate Toro v. Desperate Juventus

Both sides come into this fiercely contested derby with different ambitions; a win for Torino could push them further away from the drop zone, whereas a win for Juventus could quite possibly cut Inter´s lead to 4 points. Full preview after the jump.
