Hey, is there a legal way to stream Serie A games in Ireland? I don't mind paying obviously, but I don't want or have a cable package, just want serie a.

Bit of a mess up with Roma's administration they fielded an ineligible player against Verona and have been handed a defeat although they're trying to appeal

Best I’ve seen Juve play in a long time. Ramsey was like a player reborn. Maybe Juve finally have a midfield with a bit of balance after an impressive debut my McKenzie and an ever improving Rabiot.

Smell the glove

I liked the look of Fiorentina yesterday. They have very strong midfield options this year. Torino won't be up to much this season saying that though. Good win for Napoli there to start off with. Interesting to see what Gattuso can achieve in a full season with Napoli.

Spinazzola unlucky. Very nearly had a goal of the season contender on the opening day.

Roma held to a goalless draw at Verona.

Just noticed the 2 Inzaghi brothers will be coaching against each other this season. Filippo in charge of Bennevento and Simone with Lazio

Until Milan on the final day, I like the Atalanta run in.

Conte doesn't do forward plans. He wants the instant product. I guess he knows he would be gone long before Tonali hits prime years.

What the feck are Inter at, thought that was wrapped up in a bow, does Conte not want him?

Why is Conte ready to walk, not getting the transfers he wants?

Apparently a trust matter within the club. The breaking point came:

He was sent a letter in post with a bullet, address to him at the club. He wanted nothing said, not to frighten anyone, and somehow his family got to hear about it. he said it could only come from in the club.

Conte looks like getting ready to walk out at Inter. With Allegri favourite to follow!!

Sarri must be getting excited for 2023 at Inter :pac:

Making the quarters one legged was a massive boost to my interest as a viewer and the intensity of the game was unreal at times, I know they won’t but they should consider dropping the two legged approach.

I was thinking that myself, it would be great if they could do this whole mini tournament every year, it'd definitely make me more interested in the other matches.

Inter looked like they were going to blow Leverkusen away by half time last night but then literally limped over the line with Sanchez injured but all subs used and Lukaku in obvious pain but playing on anyway, he was unplayable at times. Will be interesting to see how they do against Shaktar Donetsk in the semi.

Just watching Golazzo story on BT.

God if forgotten how much fun C4 covered he was back then. I’d also forgotten how strong that league was back then. Stronger then any league nowadays and pretty much all superstars in one league.

I was hoping they would show some of my favourite highlights, including a doggie game that ended 4-4, think it was like 4-1 with 20 mins to go and some lad came off the bench to get a hatrick. “ if any other team did it you wouldn’t believe it. If you followed Foggiw, you’d expect nothing less” classic...

Also seemed way more meaningful to fans that the overly marketed , soulless EPL now represents. I really loved football back then, just isn’t the same anymore.

Exactly what I thought, but I too reached the same conclusion, still a horror miss though.

Yeah it was, but there was a lot more wrong in that game than just his miss, most of the games around that time involved very poor periods for Inter and that whole spell cost Inter more than the losses to Juve and Lazio before the break. Having said all that, I would have been happy with finishing 2nd at the start of the season so I shouldn't complain really.

Really enjoyed that, a good read and reminded of a few things I had forgotten. I do wonder if that Gagliardini miss against Sassuolo would have actually made the difference for Inter, probably would have found somewhere else to bottle it or Juve would have put in a bit more effort.

Barca tearing Napoli assunder, thought the opener was a foul but Napoli have been woeful at the back.

Weird for Pirlo to be managing Ronaldo.

I think Juve will struggle next year

pm1977x

Madness, when he was appointed to the U23s I thought he'd be promoted a couple of years down the line, this seems like a panic move, otherwise why appoint him to the U23s at all if this was the plan?

Agent Coulson

I guess they are hoping for the Zidane effect.

Mr.Nice Guy

Didn't see that one coming.

Ballsy appointment for sure. Wonder how Ronaldo will feel about it.

They didn't mess about with that, anyway. Poch is seemingly the favourite to replace him. He'd be my choice.

Poch to Juve makes the most sense imo. Doesn't look like there is a PL top 6 vacancy for him, even though I'd love him at United.

He ticks a lot of boxes for Juventus. Young and hungry, his teams play good football, believes in youth which their aging team needs, has reached a CL final...

Tuchel might be another option too, depending on how events go with PSG.

Feel for Sarri in a way because he's been unloved at his last two clubs despite achieving minimum objectives, but he doesn't look a comfortable fit at an elite outfit.

Juventus have no money to get new players.

It isnt a job that appealing. They are obsessed with winning the CL & if Inter overtook them next season which may happen whoever is in charge will be a huge failure

Conte back if things don’t improve with Inter?
