The Serie A Thread

[Special Juan 27,103]

Lazio's 17 year old talent Joseph Minala

17 stone, yeah.

[Jase 43,479]

in italy you play at least 24 matches against teams with 5 defenders and 4 midfields, that prepare the match for a tie

Juventus is perfect against this teams, and has a big immunity for his players, no yellow cards or penalty for juventus, so you can't compare juventus performance in Campionato with her performance in Champions to say that she is not that strong

Actual juventus is invulnerable in Campionato

Napoli is a young team, we failed 9 years ago and restarted from third division, and we are a low budget team, we don't have externals investors so our financial balance has to be always positive, we don't watch at the result for this year but we watch at the big grow we had this year with Benitez for what concern the mentality, the approach at the game, the international performance.

It's not true that money is enought to buy the players we need to become competitive, we don't have so much money to win auction against big European teams, for example we are thinking about mascherano for next year, and it looks that he likes us.

if he will come in Napoli, we will have to thank only Benitez for that, he has to reduce his salary, and he will do that only with Benitez

With Mazzarri we could think to Mesto from Genoa or Bianchi from Torino, now Mascherano from Barca is thinking about us

If you can win the league title under Benitez, then good for Napoli (even his rubbishness in the league has to end at some point) but don't be surprised if you don't. His record of having won no league titles or even challenging consistently for it every season (even Arsenal have done it better than Benitez's Liverpool) since leaving Valencia tells its own story.

In 90 years Napoli won 2 scudetti di serie A, 1 uefa league and 4 coppa Italia

We won the scudetti and uefa league with Maradona, before his arrival no team from the south of Rome never won anything in Italy

I say that to explain that it will be not so terrible for us not to win the europa league, we see a growing project and we are totally satisfied of this, we pretend a qualification to Champions League for next year and a good performance in this europa league

Your team that faced us in the Champions league was a team that would have won the scudetto with a little investment.

We had the maximum of the grow With mazzarri, he can train only italian speaking players, he plays only only 5-3-2, and he can focus only on one competition at time (we arrived 5th in Campionato that year, focusing only on champions)

Our plan was to build a team with Benitez around Cavani, but he decided to leave and with his 64 millions of euros nets we bought higuain, Albiol, callejon and Mertens

I think that this team is really stronger that the one played against Chelsea, and has bigger grows prospect

Lavezzi,Cavani,Hamsik,Inler was so deadly everybody would love to have an attack of these 4. Maybe you are a better team now but that time you were really deadly, but yea, a better manager would have done better. I still think Mazzari would have done better if he had the money Benitez had during the summer.

We were looking for Mertens and Callejon already 2 years ago, but Mazzarri refused them because they didn't speak Italian

You can have how many money you want, but if you look only to players playing in serie A you can never grow

Benitez had this money because we sold Cavani, so ok he had a big budget but he loses the bigger to player Napoli had after Maradona

Mazzarri had 30 millions when we sold Lavezzi, we bought Mesto, he was looking for Bianchi, refused Mertens and callejon

We bought Vargas, 12 millions of euros, 2nd best South American player behind Neymar, and Mazzarri let him play maximum 5 minutes at the end of matches, because he didn't speak Italian

Watch now Mazzarri at inter, without a top level player like Cavani

[iceboy 992]

WOW Balotelli

[CHOULO19 24,332]

Balotelli

That was just ridiculous!

[Ainsley Harriott 2,732]

WOW Balotelli

Balotelli

That was just ridiculous!

DAYUM SON.

[CHOULO19 24,332]

Someone actually topped Balotelli's goal and in the same weekend as well!

[kellzfresh 7,226]

That's the difference between a team with finishers and another without. Milan had 7 clear chances and don't score juve lead with their only attack in the first half.

[CHOULO19 24,332]

Not sure if Asamoah or Roanldinho...

[Rmpr 8,977]

Not sure if Asamoah or Roanldinho...

Definitely Asamoah, because Ronaldinho would never play for a shit club like Juve!

[CHOULO19 24,332]

Definitely Asamoah, because Ronaldinho would never play for a shit club like Juve!

I'd never want him there, anyway

[MetsajCFC 1,255]

Better view of that, addictive!

This is false.

So why Napoli picked up Rolando from Porto?

Don't hate Mazzarri just because he preferred Inter to Napoli, come on.

Tbf, Napoli fans hated Mazzarri long before he left. At least the ones I know. I remember when we played Napoli in the CL and had tens of them here and they kept saying how shit he is.
