This may be a dumb question since I don't follow Serie A, but why didn't Juve hire someone like Spaletti instead of Allegri?

Well, you can support Cesena, who's third jersey is pink in honour of Marco Pantani (pink jersey is what the leader of the Giro d'Italia wears).



This is highway robbery of Palermo IMO, send Cesena down to Serie C.

Here are the results for the first round of the Coppa Italia. The second round will be next Sunday and will see the Serie B teams come into the mix. If Bologna, Catania, and Livorno fail to beat L'Aquila, Südtirol, and Bassano, respectively, it will no doubt only add to the humiliation of being relegated from Serie A in the first place. Last year's Serie B darlings, Bari, host Savona.

My surname-sake lost :( I didn't even know Taranto had a team, have they ever done anything?

I took a gamble and lost :(

But honestly, how do we manage to look the exact loving same in every CL for the past some-odd years.

We start strong, but not too strong, and then we face some shitbucket team who puts their heart into a win and then we collapse in on ourselves. We definitely woke up after the goal yesterday, but while Roberto did have a loving amazing game, we just couldn't get the goal in the net.

Allegri, Conte, it doesn't matter, our players just don't care about Europe.

e: furthermore, I'm bewildered by the Giovinco sub, how you can't think Llorente wouldn't have been a better option is bewildering, so actually, gently caress Allegri

I think Fiorentina played ever so slightly better, but Juve is benching their best which tells you a lot about the value of the two teams. I think it will come down to who makes the first mistake.

I don't think I've ever met a real life actual Torino fan tbh. If you're from there you support Juve unless your grandfather beat you in to submission and forced you to wear maroon.

One of my grandfathers tried to get me at an impressionable young age by forcing a Palermo jersey on me and taking me to a game, but this being the mid-90's, the team supported by the rest of my family being in Serie A made it an easy choice.

Falcao is one of the best strikers in the world, when fit. Juve should be so lucky.

"when fit."

BASICALLY we had a few seasons where we brought in poo poo, past-it strikers (Anelka, Bendtner, I whanna say there was a third but) and Falcao hasn't exactly exceeded expectations after coming back from his decently severe knee injury.
