Just saw the highlights. That will be tough to top for Serie A game of the season. Wishing now I'd watched it live.

Poxy Inter.

Mr.Nice Guy · 23-10-2022 07:32PM

Roma vs Napoli will be interesting. Wonder if Mourinho can figure out a way to stop them.

Can't see it happening without Dybala - he makes them tick and has been a real source of goals too.

Mr.Nice Guy · 23-10-2022 08:27PM

Mourinho wanting Ndombele booked for diving. 😂 Wasn't a pen but wasn't a dive either. I think that's a bit of bad blood from the Tottenham days.

Mr.Nice Guy · 23-10-2022 09:25PM

OSIMHEN! WHAT A GOAL.

ShamoBuc · 23-10-2022 09:26PM

An absolute cracker - poor by Smalling.

Mr.Nice Guy · 23-10-2022 09:41PM

Did Karsdorp just put his hands on the ref after the whistle there? Looked like a shove to me but I'd need to see it again.

Having watched it back, he does touch the ref. Could get a ban for that.

Terrible match but what a goal.

breezy1985 · 23-10-2022 10:31PM

Napoli keep managing to get over the line.

Mr.Nice Guy · 24-10-2022 11:48PM

Nice goal by Armand Lauriente tonight. He was a good player at Lorient and looks a smart bit of business by Sassuolo. I can see bigger clubs looking at him down the line.

Mr.Nice Guy · 30-10-2022 09:23PM

Torino leading Milan. Leao is having a shocker so far.

Miranchuk makes it 2-0!

Pioli takes off Leao and Diaz at half-time. Can't argue with it.

2-1. Game on. Absolute gift from Torino.

Full-time. Milan's first away loss in Serie A since last November. Napoli go 5 points clear.

Mr.Nice Guy · 05-11-2022 06:24PM

Atalanta vs Napoli looking a good contest. 1-1 already after 20 odd minutes. Osimhen's nice header cancelling out Lookman's pen.

Napoli turn it around to lead 2-1. Elmas with the goal but Osimhen made it by bullying Demiral off the ball.

Full-time and a great 2-1 win for Napoli. Really good game. Atalanta will be disappointed not to get something as they had chances, particularly Hojland. Lookman was a big threat.

breezy1985 · 05-11-2022 10:07PM

Maldini just scored against Milan to level the game.

Milan should have put this game to bed by now.

breezy1985 · 05-11-2022 10:15PM

I can't understand why top clubs are not putting big money down on Tonali.

Goal disallowed but great finish all the same.

VAR making an awful fool of itself tonight. Not for the eventual decisions but time and communication.

breezy1985 · 05-11-2022 10:37PM

Giroud scores with a great finish from a cracker of a pass from Tonali.

Rips off his shirt and gets sent off. First yellow was for getting involved in a scuffle.

Smell the glove · 06-11-2022 08:52AM

Some atmosphere at San Siro last night. Some great goals. Massive that Milan got the win in the end. Need to stay in touch for when Napoli do their yearly collapse.

dor83 · 06-11-2022 07:51PM

Line-ups for the Derby d'Italia:

Juventus: Szczesny; Danilo, Bremer, Alex Sandro; Cuadrado, Fagioli, Locatelli, Rabiot, Kostic; Miretti; Milik

Inter: Onana; Skriniar, De Vrij, Acerbi; Dumfries, Barella, Calhanoglu, Mkhitaryan, Dimarco; Dzeko, Lautaro Martinez

Both teams need to win but I have a feeling Juve will win tonight.

Fingers crossed for a draw. Keep them both down 😁

Well I'm an Inter fan but I'd probably take a draw right now, it wouldn't be a disaster given we've lost against all the top 8 sides we've played so far this season. Inter don't do draws this season though so my prediction is a Juve win.

breezy1985 · 06-11-2022 09:55PM

Rabiot is Rabiot is Rabiot.

Great finish from the French hunchback to put Juve 1 up.

Mr.Nice Guy · 06-11-2022 11:18PM

Juve's woes have been well documented this season and yet they're above Inter in the table and only 4 off Milan.

Had a look at Roma's highlights and Abraham has picked a bad time to start stinking up the joint. I don't think he merits a place in the England squad on form.

breezy1985 · 08-11-2022 11:49AM

Midweek round of Serie A squeezed in tonight before the World Cup. Italian FA obviously not too worried about player burn out before the World Cup.

Napoli vs Empoli 5:30 and Cremonese vs Milan 7:30 are the 2 big televised game.

Also Napoli are statistically already winter champions.

Mr.Nice Guy · 08-11-2022 07:18PM

0-0 at half-time. Napoli struggling to create chances.

1-0 (just) thanks to Lozano's penalty. Osimhen won it. Twenty minutes to go.

Empoli down to 10. Napoli loanee Luperto gets a second yellow. Things looking good for Napoli.

2-0. Lovely finish on volley from Zielinski. Job done. Pressure on Milan later.

Mr.Nice Guy · 08-11-2022 10:38PM

Milan held to a goalless draw at Cremonese.

Napoli 8 points clear. Starting to feel like this is the season the long wait for the title ends.

breezy1985 · 08-11-2022 10:39PM

Milan fail to break down the parked bus 0-0 and Napoli 8 points clear for now.

Mr.Nice Guy · 09-11-2022 06:05PM

Abraham benched for Roma's upcoming match at Sassuolo. Don't think he can have any complaints. Shomurodov gets the nod.

Mr.Nice Guy · 09-11-2022 08:09PM

Abraham scores off the bench with a great header. That's the perfect response from him.

1-1. Lead didn't last long. Pinamonti levels for Sassuolo. Great work from Lauriente.

breezy1985 · 09-11-2022 08:32PM

Its starting to look like Napoli vs 6 teams who are going to be more worried about top 4 than the title the way things are going.

dor83 · 10-11-2022 12:23AM

Napoli will bottle it after Christmas, in his first season at Inter Spalletti had a great first half of the season, Inter were top at Christmas, but only scrapped 4th on the final day. I wouldn't be surprised if something similar happens with Napoli this season, I expect Inter and Juve to be a lot better after Christmas too but it might be a bit much for either to win the scudetto especially if they drop points at the weekend, which I expect both to do.
