Serie A season 2011/2012

I strongly fancy Inter tonight, I reckon they might even steamroll Napoli. Maicon is back and Pazzini is passed fit, he will partner Forlan up front.

Inter 4 - 2 Napoli

Pazzini (x3)
Alvarez

Lavezzi
Hamsik

What a start to the game, end to end!

Enthralling game, tune in lads. The footballing equivalent of two boxers having a tear-up.

Pazzini is top drawer, his movement in the box is just brilliant, the way he manages to consistently get across the defender is unrivalled in todays game.

Pazzini has a goal ruled out.

Inter had Lucio, Chivu and Maicon all in the box on the counter attack there.

:lol:

The commentators are having a heated discussion over Hamsik. :lol:

Was watching this in a PC-less room there but had to come upstairs to post about it. Terrific game of football.

what drama

Foul alright but definitely outside the box.

Should have been a free as oppossed to a penalty.

Poor penalty but an emphatic finish with the rebound

Campagnaro buried that rebound.

:clap:

Campagnaro was having a cracking game even before he put that away.

How was Julio Cesar not sent off there?

Cesar has lost the plot.

:lol:

Possibly the best half of football, ever?

Good to see the upward curve with regards to the standard of Italian football is continuing. Once these UEFA rules come in with regards spending I expect Italy will regain its crown as the best league in Europe.

In terms of spectacle, quality and spread - it’s already the best. Italian clubs need to start taking the Europa League more seriously though.

It is only in the last 18 months or so that I have really started to watch Serie A with far more regularity and for the most part it is excellent with most teams playing good attacking football with nice slick passing and movement. I was more on about attracting the biggest names and European success to which it has fallen behind the Spanish and English leagues, but it will be back on top in the not too distant future, just like it was in the 80’s and 90’s

Agreed, over the last 4 years, with the exception of Juventus, Italian clubs have been very shrewd in the transfer market and have refused to overpay on average players like English clubs have.
