Different coaches are good for different jobs/circumstances (which present different problems to solve and manage.) There are excellent second-division/smaller-club coaches who don't have the right method or skillset to coach a top club, and there are top club coaches who don't have the right...

There's also one last section about Mitoma that got cut in that video (from 18:47 onward):

Carletto Mazzone :love: he is a bit of an Italian small-club guru, he developed interesting ideas (like moving Pirlo from #10 to the deep-lying midfielder position) and was very well-respected inside the Italian football environment during his career. In that case the Atalanta fans (who in...

Very unlucky if you're placed in pot 3, from what I've seen you're at least a pot-2 team. If we manage to qualify for Europa League, I don't think we'll shake anything at all given that we've already played there (poorly) this season and gone out in the semifinal :lolol: You're overestimating...

Meh, in Europe we have different style of tifos, that don't involve passing around those big club flags you pass around in the PL before the matches, so it won't be much of an issue if you all dress in your colors and wave scarves

Only if you want your city destroyed. I'd love for us to meet Brighton but one bad thing is that our tickets are very pricey, Etihad-like (among other reasons, it's also because our stadium is small compared to other big clubs), and there's a lot of restrictions compared to other Italian...

You just have to hope you don't get a Dutch team

Depending on how many points they arbitrarily decide to deduct from our total at the end of this season, we might end up facing each other! And even without all that, it might happen all the same if we're as shit in our CL group as we've been this season

That would be great for him as he could really develop under De Zerbi, but you've already got your share of wingers (unless you lose them in the summer of course) and he might cost you too much as I think some other PL clubs might also be interested

AKA the love of my life

I hope for your sake it's false (as seems to be the case) because I don't think he's a De Zerbi-type player and he's been all in all mediocre for us - and for Leeds it seems

Here in Italy there's a popular football saying that goes "Better to lose one match 6-0 than six matches 1-0."

What a nice result to read! I'll rewatch this game as soon as I have the time. To be fair I'm not too surprised; RDZ is exactly the kind of manager to lose to that Everton team and win against this Arsenal team, as crazy as it might sound. You'll have to be more wary of tough low-mid table...

And I'm arguing that being the lesser of two evils doesn't make something good or not worth complaining about. If I broke someone's leg on purpose should they refrain from complaining about it because I didn't kill them?

This must be the most ridiculous thing I've heard in a while, by that logic I guess the South Africans should have been thankful to their apartheid government because they didn't wipe them all away? I had heard that Australians were horribly racist towards the original inhabitants of their...

Very satisfying to watch, having a good choreographer does wonders

Interesting that in the beginning to say "work" he says "laborar" (which is similar to the Italian verb "lavorare") instead of "trabajar" (Spain's Spanish verb.) I like that South American Spanish with its various influences is often more understandable to me than Spain's.

It worked (again)!

The piece: "Brighton’s players fear that Roberto De Zerbi will not stay at the club beyond this season, amid serious interest from Italy in the 43-year-old. De Zerbi has been consistently linked with Inter Milan in recent months and Telegraph Sport understands there is genuine concern within...

That show is complete rubbish - having Cassano as host should be enough of an indicator - but at least it was semi-useful for once (RDZ simply repeated what he already said 100 times.) *ragazzino 🧐 ("young boy") Though I'd call him ragazzone ("big boy, big lad") the way he's built
