Roberto Baggio, eat your heart out.

That is one of the worst penalties you'll ever see.

 

[smat]

hahahaha

 

[mistermagic]

Higuain never fails to entertain me.

 

[Renegade]

I can't believe Napoli haven't won this, torn apart on the break again. Jesus.

 

[mistermagic]

Finished 4-2. Well done Lazio. I hope they make it to the group stages.

Napoli must be eating their bowls right now.

 

[allouso]

FFS Higuain!

 

[yellow]

Absolutely terrible penalty, that.

He's a bit of a choker isn't he?

 

[yellow]

Montella sacked from Fiorentina.

 

[mistermagic]

Difference of opinion. Shame as he was doing a good job.

 

[PE3A]

Jackson Martinez is almost a milan player.
Thoughts?

 

[Stevencc]

Jackson Martinez is almost a milan player.
Thoughts?

He's fantastic, there are a lot of rumours that Arsenal are close to signing him also.

 

[TheMinsterman]

Yeah second that really, very good player and exactly the sort of players Milan need to attract if they want to regain their position as one of football's elite, which I certainly hope they do, it'll be of benefit to Italy as a whole if they and Juventus can make dents in Europe again.

Are Milan sorting themselves out? Berlusconi close to selling his share of the club to some Thai geezer. I see they were linked with Dani Alves prior to him signing a new deal, and Ibrahimovic has also been linked. A front two of Martinez and Ibra, on paper, looks good although I wonder if they are a bit similar.

Be good for Serie A to have the likes of the Milan duo back and challenging at the top.

 

[PE3A]

Ok so Martinez is now ac milan player.
And I think Ibra will also return but what about cerci and matri i wonder what's gonna happen to em lol.
Also el shaarawy playing pretty good .

 

[mistermagic]

Inzaghi sacked by Milan. Mihajlovic expected.

 

[mistermagic]

Confirmed. Mihajlovic is the new Milan manager. Step up I guess but will he deliver?

Menez used to play on the wing for PSG quite regularly so I'd imagine he may fill in there? He could probably fill in the ST role in case Martinez or Ibra are injured.

 

[Bromo18]

Does anyone now how much truth there is behind the Ibra-Milan rumours?

 

[mistermagic]

Only have to pay the last year of his PSG contract (15M€) so it could happen but I just can't see the logic behind it. I hope it happens as I can't stand him.

 

[yellow]

Has Martinez actually been confirmed as a Milan player yet?

 

[PE3A]

Has Martinez actually been confirmed as a Milan player yet?

yes

 

[BigDaveCUFC]

anyone know what is happening at Parma? are they being liquidated or heading into Serie B?

One of my old fave FM games was with Parma.

 

[mistermagic]

Investors have seemingly taken over the club but you never know with the Italians.

Juve have signed Mandzukic from Atletico for 18M€. Tevez leaving for Boca looks on.

 

[voltage]

Mandzukic is a good name for Juventus with the apparent Tevez departure.

 

[Ligue 1 fan]

Inter are close to signing Kondogbia from ASM. Thought he would have gone to Spain or England but it seems Inter are building a very strong team this summer.

As for Ibra going to Milan. No chance.

 

[mistermagic]

What you reckon? Not sure if it's a great a year before the Euros. Apparently it's a done deal for 40M. I do hope Inter challenge for honours soon though I think this season will be a bit premature.

 

[thespus]

So no Jackson Martinez or Kondogbia for Milan. Maybe rebuilding won't be as easy as some thought. Kondogbia looks a good player, but that price seems high. Perhaps I underestimate his technical quality.

 

[mistermagic]

Plus I don't think Inter need a player like Kondogbia right now. They lack creative players and Kondogbia is just a holding midfielder. Nothing more.

 

[Stevencc]

Galliani: "If we save €40m from Kondogbia and €35m from Jackson, then we'll have €75m to spend wisely in the rest of the transfer window."

 

[Libertadores FC]

This is apparently their 3rd most expensive transfer in history. He's good but 35M?
