    Fantastic game, great finish.

    Good result for Inter but why did he start with Perisic and Kolarov on the left side, surely it would have been better to play Skriniar as a CB and move Kolarov out left. Hakimi and Sanchez both played well when they came on and should start on Wednesday.

    7 goal thriller. Hakimi looks a catch.

    Thought Sanchez did well when he came on.

    Conte (for some reason) doesn't rate Skriniar and wants to ship him out, can't get my head around it as the season before Conte arrived he was the best CB or one of the best in the league, now he's getting the cold shoulder. :confused:

    Yeah, I don't get it myself, and I know he wasn't great last season but tonight he started Kolarov as a CB ahead of him and Perisic as a WB which is crazy imo. Kolarov shouldn't be playing CB at all and he was at fault for the first(poor defending) and third(his lack of pace left Perisic trying to chase back) goals tonight.

    Great games today, lots of goals. I can’t understand why one of the bigger sides didn’t go for Gomez, a goal and two assists. Be a serious signing for the likes of Milan.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,315 ✭✭✭Smell the glove


    Only the voila could throw away 3 points like that. Said it before but I really like the look of their midfield this season. They really should be pushing for a europa league spot.

    Ronaldo is something else. Up front on his own and a top class CF goal when they just survive a miss from Djeko.

    Great play from Danilo also.

    Could be another great finish to follow on from last night.

    Fine header by Ronaldo to make it 2-2 for 10 men Juve, Dzeko missed a few good chances.

    Caught up with the weekend highlights. Osimhen looks like he's added a lot to the Napoli attack, even though he hasn't gotten off the mark yet. Looks like he's settling in well.

    Udinese look like they could be in for a tough season. Beaten by Verona and tonight lost 2-0 at home to Spezia. Inter put five past Benevento this evening as well.

    Lazio vs Atalanta tonight could be a good one.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,319 ✭✭✭Ohmeha


    Atalanta chewing up Lazio here 3-0 up approaching half-time


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,643 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Nice Guy


    I had half an eye on the game. Lazio's defending didn't look too good and that's a worry with Inter up next. Hateboer's volley is worth a look on the highlights later.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,315 ✭✭✭Smell the glove


    Atalanta just continue on where they left off last season. Stunning stuff. Gomez what a player.

    Napoli Juve game is postponed after Napoli were told by the health authority not to travel to Turin due to Covid.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,545 ✭✭✭dor83


    Napoli Juve game is postponed after Napoli were told by the health authority not to travel to Turin due to Covid.

    Looks like Juve are refusing to postpone the game, they released a statement saying that the first team will be taking to the field tomorrow as per the Serie A calendar. The game hasn't officially been postponed yet and they seem to be hoping that Napoli will have to forfeit the game so they get a 3-0 win.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,964 ✭✭✭Podge2k7


    Inter beating Lazio 1-0 at halftime. Lautaro Martinez with the goal.
    Lazio were forced to make 2 subs due to injury and Bastos apeared to be injured going in at halftime so a third forced sub is likely.
    Hopefully the games picks up a little in the second half.

    Weird post. Juventus don't have authority to postpone a game. I know they have their influences, but they don't actually control the calcio in that degree

    If both teams agreed to postpone it then it would be, because Juve won't agree the game has to go ahead as scheduled.

    That's just wrong. Serie A have said the game must proceed. A club can only postpone if they can show 10 players disabled

    They said that after Juve released a statement saying they intended to show up for the game. The local authorities have said they told Napoli not to travel, that overrides the rule that says they need to play so long as they have 13 fit players including 1 keeper. The game should have been postponed and Napoli will most likely win an appeal of the forfeit.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,120 ✭✭✭justshane


    Have Atalanta a genuine chance of winning the league?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,868 ✭✭✭irishguitarlad


    That Lammers goal yesterday for Atalanta, wow.

    I will hope so

    So who had the best mercato?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,868 ✭✭✭irishguitarlad


    Wow, Napoli up 3-0 against Atalanta


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,868 ✭✭✭irishguitarlad

    Don't think you could time a Milan derby worse on paper to get attention. Squeezed in between an international break and before European competitions start.
