Back in the 90s I probably knew more about Italian football than the English game. Gazetter Italia on a Saturday followed by a live game on the Sunday. 1990 World Cup is the one I have the best memories of. I loved Paolo Maldini but I have to admit to liking Juventus the most, favourite players Roberto Baggio (the Divine Ponytail) and Alessandro del Piero. Would have gone to Turin if I could have got myself a ticket.
I love Italian food and all the places I have visited have been thoroughly enjoyable.

Looks like the next super feud is AC Milan vs the country of Turkey.
Milan is running the risk of getting kicked out of European football due to FFP, and the Milan boss brought up that Milan seemingly have not gone to the same lengths investigating Galatasaray who have similar money problems, I think he even accussed UEFA of taking bribes from Turkey. So UEFA said "Fair enough" and re-opened those investigations as well. Which have lead to a lot of pissed off Turks.
It's like Liverpool vs the world on social media, only in 2 languages I do not understand.
EDIT: Now Besiktas fans have come to Milan's aide. This is banter at the highest level

Yes, very impressive. If I had been there I would've broken the silence though.
By sobbing. Very moving.
I live in Genoa and work near the "Morandi bridge". 43 deaths and major disruption to roads and ports. The scandalous thing is the negligence of the Benetton family that owns Atlantia, a company that manages Autostrade spa.
My world has been rocked.
I had no idea until today that the Football Italia music was from a '90s rave tune.
Big vibes. \o/

Thanks, mate, I get the record thing and championships are where the focus is, but Spurs, Barca, City and now Juve are joint record holders for the best start to a league ever. If you win your next game you break this record which has stood for 57 years. Who is your next game against, I want to send them my best wishes?
I think that they could organize a tournament with 16 teams all those who have been with Wanda Nara.
Allegri is on the grill
Disgraceful comments from Bonucci and the Cagliari president after Moise Kean suffered racial abuse in Juve's win over Cagliari
And to clarify, he was getting monkey chants thrown him prior to his supposed 'arrogant' celebration. They should be happy he didn't flip them all off and jump in the crowd, all he did was stand in front of them.
3:14 for his celebration
Saw a video on Twitter where Matuidi was getting monkey chants and boo'd at too. Disgusting.

You can not be serious.
Monkey chants show 'respect' not 'racism'
A group of Inter Milan fans claim Cagliari supporters were showing Romelu Lukaku a form of "respect" when they aimed monkey chants at him on Sunday.www.bbc.co.uk
Anyone understand the logic in that???
Fuck me, these are some very backward people. And to see that it’s actually Inter fans defending the Calgari supporters.
The phrase ‘thick as pig shit’ comes to mind.
A very well produced piece on Bologna's manager Mihajlovic, who is currently battling leukemia.
Even if there was no racist undertone in that headline, it's still incredibly stupid and unprofessional considering recent events. They could have come up with a different headline.
Should probably go in the "Modern Football is Broken" thread.... but, just WOW!

Reckon Spurs fans can get compensation for the CL Final, 'cos I can think of HALF A DOZEN players who "didn't turn up" to that!!!!!

Platini was a Juventus player: he won everything with us and became the champion of the three golden balls. His part as a corrupt leader is that relating to France. The French "cleansers" ...
