Mr.Nice Guy

Barella may have won it for Inter with a brilliant curling effort. Lovely goal.

It ends 2-1 to Inter. They needed to win that and they did.

Mr.Nice Guy

Vecino equalises with a header. It was coming. Now they need to get the winner. 25 minutes to go.

Mr.Nice Guy

Inter 1-0 down at home to Verona after Handanovic gave away a pen.

Love watching Sassuolo's Jeremie Boga atm. His dribbling skills are great. Didn't realise he used to be on Chelsea's books. He looks like he's ready for a bigger move.

Scored a good goal tonight in Sassuolo's 3-1 win over Bologna. Caputo's 2nd of the evening was another nice one.

the ultras dont give a ****e at most italian clubs about the performances on the pitch , most of them are only interested in self power and political stuff, look at the nocerina ultras back in serie B a few years ago after being banned from attending the local derby away to salernitana they gave death threats to their own players not to play the game , as a result the nocerina players all faked injuries and as a result the game was abandoned after 20 minutes , a drone flew over the ground saying respect the nocerina ultras , to these people its all about power not football

the book a season with verona is an excellent insight into the thinking of a right wing ultra movement attached to football club , 20 years ago the problems were just as bad and nothing has been done , there is too much political corruption in the country to sort it out , when balotelli signed form city to AC milan a few years back one of the directors , silvio berlusconi's brother i think , said in an interview shortly after the signing was made to one of the newspapers , "we are all delighted to say we have signed the family's little black boy " !!!

there is no law nor order in italy to this sort of stuff

Brescia's ultras would be fairly far right also. Shower of idiots, all of them.

Forgot to add that Balotelli was their main attacking threat and scored a cracker of a goal in the match. Brescia ultras are fools for putting their hateful philosophy above a player who could easily be the difference between whether they stay up or get relegated.

I say he will be gone in January as he won't put up with this in Italy as someone who is part italian I am shocked at the fans over there.

Years back I was at a man utd roma match and my god the ultras where doing the fascists hand signal around old Trafford. My dad who's Italian was embarrassed by them.

The ultras in Italy are really something else.

Uncomfortable scenes. They probably should have walked off with him, although he did go on to score this great goal:

Saw a video from the crowd, it would make your stomach churn, nothing will be done I suspect. Also, the Verona manager Juric said he heard no racist chants, when you have the manager of a club denying It you know that racism is endemic there.

Surprised that was Lazio's first win at the San Siro in 30 years. Juve and Napoli up next for Milan.

Against AC Milan yes. Won in March against Inter 0-1.

Immobile now at 100 goals in 147 games for Lazio, crazy stats.

Mr.Nice Guy

Disappointing result for Atalanta losing at home to Cagliari who are now just behind them on goal difference. Stupid from Ilicic getting himself sent off like that.

Rayne Wooney

Surely the Italian league need to do something about it, he’s being abused every week it seems.

Ban all the fans until they self police those idiots, it’s the only way it seems.

How good is Immobile

The guy is on fire

Thought De Ligt was lucky not to concede a pen for handball.

Pleased things are going well for Lukaku. 9 goals in 11 league games now.

dr.kenneth noisewater

Can, Khedira, Ramsey and Douglas Costa on the bench and Rabiot suspended for Juve, they really are stacked in CM

Maybe i'm to harsh but I thought that was awful keeping by Handanovič

Mr.Nice Guy

No Halloween horror for Milan as they win thanks to Suso's nice free-kick.

https://twitter.com/PremierSportsTV/status/1190016919551787016

Looked like they deserved the win from the highlights. Their next games will be much tougher tests: Lazio, Juve and Napoli.

Mr.Nice Guy

Great long-range strike from Lazio's Acerbi:

https://twitter.com/calciopediagoal/status/1189643352280616961

Good win for them over Torino. Immobile is on fire atm.

Smalling got his first goal for Roma, although he couldn't possibly miss it.

Not going well for Ranieri at Samp. The commentator on the highlights said their fans left a banner at the training ground saying 'Sampdoria-Lecce: 3 points'. In the end they had to wait until stoppage time to get a point against Lecce's 10 men.

Juve got out of jail once again. Played against 9 men for quite awhile before Rabiot got himself sent off.

Get a penalty in the 96 minute and Ronny converted

Against 10 men actually. Looks like the second red card was for a benched player.

96th minute penalty for Juve. Need to watch that one.

2-2

Atalanta equaliser seconds beforehand Napoli were denied what looked like a clear penalty.

Ended 2-2, Napoli as you can imagine weren't too pleased.

ERG89

Milik misses a chance to put Napoli up 2-0. I don't know how he managed to miss it.

1-1 at half time, Meret should have saved the equaliser from Freuler imo.

Lukaku has 7 goals in 10 games

Glad to see him do well, great goal.

I saw stats this morning that said Inter only had 2 shots on target! Maybe Lautaro's goal didn't count due to deflection (I didn't see it), but even still that's a pretty worrying stat considering the opposition.

Mr.Nice Guy

Great winning goal for Verona away at Parma tonight:

https://twitter.com/PremierSportsTV/status/1189259617571950593

Gervinho unlucky not to equalise as he hit the crossbar.

ERG89

Inter go top for the night. Brescia lie in 18th, I hope they really did get a sweetheart deal on Balotelli's wages as it's all they might get relying on him. Tonali 110% won't be there next year anyway.

Napoli host Atalanta tomorrow night at 6. Not a lot else jumps out too much other than maybe Lazio vs Torino. Milan play SPAL Thursday if you hate yourself enough to watch that, might be the scariest thing on Halloween night.

From looking at the highlights Milan appeared to be fortunate they only lost by a goal. Sad to see what's happening to them. There was a rumour in the summer that linked them to Christophe Galtier and Luis Campos. Those two transformed Lille from a team heading for the drop to one in the Champions League, and if they could get them next summer I think they should go for it. As a United fan I want Campos as sporting director at Old Trafford.

Disappointing draw for Napoli as this was a great chance to make ground on Juve and Inter.

Immobile looked quality in Lazio's win over Fiorentina. I feel if they had started him against Celtic on Thursday the result would have been a different story.

State of Milan.

Shows what can happen if badly run at the top

whatever about say manchester united after ferguson or dortmund after klopp its scary whats happening in milan , granted they were not exactly run that well when berlusconi was around but atleast money was made available to buy top international players and running top scouting systems around italy

its a huge warning to any top club around the world what can happen , i am old enough to remember just how devastating a team they had in the early to mid 90s they were bigger and better than barcelona or madrid of the modern era
