Totti is 38! Can you believe it?

He's a Fucking god.

More to do with the weak league and slow pace. A month or so ago, Di Natalie and Luca Toni (or Totti, I can't remember) made the comments that the fact that they're still playing is actually a very bad sign for the Serie A.

On a different note, how would a cunt celebrate? With a selfie, of course! Just when you think you can't hate Totti any more...

Never watched Lazio this season, but he seems to be quite good dribbler and pacy too:

The guy is fast.

From the video it seems he can play all roles behind the striker or plays a free role.

But his dribbling is very good, he actually beats his players and not just do silly stepovers just to pass back.

He seems to have a powerful shot on him too.

His only weakness is his decision making, but looking at the no of assists/goals he has for a team like lazio, then its not that bad either.

Could be flavour of the month tho...he had something like in first 11 games, no goals no assists, now in last 5 games, 5 goals 5 assists lol.

Would be an understatement to say Roma are failing rather miserably in their quest to win the Serie A. Seven points behind Juventus now after another draw.

Even the title race in Ligue 1 is becoming more interesting than the one in Italy. Lyon rampant in first place. Marseille and PSG inconsistent but close behind. Monaco slightly further back but have improved greatly after poor start.

AC Milan are such a small-time club these days, they are moving away from the famous San Siro (80,000 seater) and building a little 48,000 seater stadium instead.

It's financial (besides the fact that they can't even fill half of the San Siro these days). One of the main reasons why Juve have managed to dominate in Italy by having a stable finances throughout the economic crisis was because they became the first big team in Italy to actually own their stadium. Granted the Olympico was not as iconic as the San Siro, but financial stability of owning the stadium beats the advertising appeal of history.

Besides they don't even own the San Siro, they have to pay money each year to rent it out alongside Inter Milan. Expecting 80,000 fans to attend matches in a financially crumbling country is absolutely foolish.

Criticises a club for building a 48,000 stadium.

Still bigger than Stamford Bridge.

Bigger than Juve's stadium.
