Missing out on a European spot because of goal difference with Sassuolo made him keenly aware of the importance of always scoring as many as possible

Hahaha that's true, it might be some kind of code they have ???

No idea (it's not a typical Italian gesture) but it's really funny, I assume it's some kind of way to restrain himself from doing something bad with his hands/arms :lolol:

Meanwhile, a fellow Italian in Paris 3 weeks ago :lolol::

Don't know how long ago this is from, but here's a small bit of insight into his thoughts about coaching (apologies if's already been posted)

Won't say he's lying, I think he's honest, but in that full context he's simply praising Brighton and Villa to lower Liverpool fans expectations

Personally I just hope Gnonto gets picked up by a decent club with a proper manager to shape his career in the right direction

To be fair "licking your lips" is also used as an expression in Italian, though usually not in football. Maybe he didn't expect to find it in English as well, but I don't think that's it; most of his (and our) struggles come from understanding the words themselves through the fast enunciation...

Alright, it seems best for all involved if I ignore your fixtures from now until the end of the season because when I try and make time to watch your games (like I did on Wednesday and for the FA cup semi) you lose painfully, whereas when I completely ignore them like I did today you win by a...

I obviously know nothing, but regarding looong term future he's always expressed the desire of exploring new foreign leagues because he's an adventurous guy, so he won't spend all the rest of his career in the PL. But as I said this concerns the very long term, not the immediate future. And who...

And also he isn't a big club fan, he is a Brescia fan (his hometown.) It's a historical club with a fierce rivalry with Atalanta and a very solid and passionate fanbase, and they saw great talents pass among their ranks like Pirlo, Guardiola, Toni and late Baggio; but it is not a "big" club...

I obviously have 0 stakes in it but I'll say City (who I'm indifferent about) rather than Arsenal, it's funnier to see someone blunder it on the finish line after being ahead all season. I also just noticed I don't like the teams in red among the big 6; Liverpool for obvious reasons and for...

This is one of the most famous songs in Italian pop music, published in 1982, and it's also become a staple to quote it after or during or before penalties over the years (Baggio's miss in the '94 WC final becoming one of the prime examples) "The footballing draft - Class of '68" by Francesco...

This is exactly what I wanted to write earlier but I didn't want to pass as a completely clueless non-Brighton fan. I'm obviously influenced by my own experiences and my club, but RDZ said that same thing before the game. And cups are cruel, in one single game anything can happen. We got...

My fault, I should have expanded; you played well for any other team's standard - compared to your recent very high standard you seemed a little less sharp, but as I previously wrote that was also down to United closing you down effectively and like in many cases in football it's hard to tell...

Commiserations. I watched most of the match and all the penalties. To be fair, as soon as the ref blew the whistle signalling the end of extra time, I was sure it was over for you - and you did much much better than I expected holding on for 6 straight penalties. Penalties come down to the...

Very tough half for you, very dangerous. Let's hope that in the second half you find a way to pass around the United players a little better, they're countering your system well.

Italy, if I manage to fit it in my schedule before our own game today

Mario 😍 glad to see he's doing well, he had a couple good seasons with us when he was younger even though he didn't start a lot And yeah, nice tears to have
