I'd still recommend picking Atalanta. They are good, they play entertaining attacking football, they have a good stadium and atmosphere for their home matches, you can follow Papu on Instagram, you can watch them in the CL.

I think this is true. Even Milan were pushed to the brink with that utterly bizarre ownership situation with Yonghong Li. Any club outside of the Rome/Milan teams plus Juve and Napoli could get relegated or go insolvent in a hurry.

Apparently at United he weighed 105kg (231 pounds), and naturally a lot of that is muscle, but that's still way too much weight for someone who is supposed to be running and sprinting around. No wonder he was an immobile lump.

There are reports (including from Di Marzio) that Inter are trying to work out a deal for Alexis Sanchez. Presumably a loan, where Man U pay a big chunk of the salary.

Actually now the story is that Sanchez has agreed personal terms at greatly reduced wages, and Inter are negotiating a fee for a permanent deal.

One of the most baffling things to happen this year has been (and continues to be) the Guardiola hysteria at Juventus (mostly on social media to be fair). Many "insiders" and ITK and a few journalists had been convinced, and preslytizing with their followers, that Guardiola would be the manager for Juventus this year, no question. Sarri was fake news. Even going as far as predicting the date of the announcement, the press conference, claiming already multiple meetings with Paratici to discuss transfers etc.

Then Sarri arrived, and while a good portion are now resigned to having Sarri, a non-trivial amount of the theorist just switched to "Guardiola is just waiting for the UEFA sentence to activate the clause of his contract to get free; Sarri will "conveniently" have a family issue before the first match in order to resign with intact honor"

To anyone that casts doubt on any of these theories, the one and only response has been "you were saying the same about CR7 last year!"; no discussion, the argument is won with that.

Truly, buying Big Ron has broken some people's brains.

Yeah, anytime I see a Twitter thread involving that guy Momblano my eyes just glaze over

Also, I can't believe Borini is a starting central midfielder, what a world we live in

Sounds like Juve's front line this weekend will be Ronaldo, Gonz, and Douglas Costa, as negotiations are still ongoing with Dybala and PSG.

I watched 2 of Milan's preseason matches where he played in midfield, and it was a lot like when he plays as a wing back, he runs a lot but doesn't offer much quality.

In all seriousness he only returned to training like a week and a half ago, he'd been out all summer from that injury that kept him out through the last couple of months of last season.

I seriously can't believe Rabiot isn't starting though. He was easily the best midfielder throughout preseason. Putting out the same mediocre rear end midfield as last year :cmon: #AllegriOut
