Francesco TottiNo Party

Fungus Cake

The update on injury is neither hopeful nor disastrous. Surgery won't be required, yet, but there's also no update on when this "therapy" is going to enable him to hit back. In fact, there's no vague timeline either. He might be back against Livorno -- which, to be honest, will be nothing but bad karma for him. Or he might take another month to walk back onto the field. At which point, he is in all probability going to score 5 goals in 3 games, assist 3 others, make the papers a few bucks by providing fuel to La Nazionale return stories and then collapse again for a month.

Whatever anyone says -- or whatever his club form says for that matter -- he can not play any more games than he does for the club. He couldn't do so in the Golden Boot form, having him do it in 09 will simply be asking too much from a 33 year old. At least for the Azzurri, Party's over:

No Totti, No Party

Roma 2 – Napoli 1
The Francesco show
So it took awhile but I’m back.
Before talking about the napoli game I would like to mention the appointment of Ranieri and the departure of Spal.
First off; grazie Luciano.
You brought beautiful football to the eternal city, nearly won us a Scudetto, revived ‘Er Pupone’ and allowed us to bask in your class. I wish you luck wherever you go, you will be missed.
Secondly, Ranieri was my first choice to replace Spal.

Pato: Like a Fish Out of Water

The start of the season hasn't been good to our boy wonder Pato. It hasn't been good at all. There are reports from La Republica that he spoke back to his senior teammates, which doesn't bode well...especially if say that person were Gattuso. Take this with a grain of salt though because La Republica is known to cause trouble being that they are a left-winged paper and like take swipes at Milan because of Berlusconi's politics.

Arsene Wenger's preferred midfield target this summer is the Roma and Italy midfielder Daniele De Rossi, and despite the Italian club's reluctance to sell Arsenal have not given up hope that Roma's perilous financial position could force a sale.

Ibra + Barca = Love?


Zlatan was unveiled at Camp Nou today after passing his medical. This brings to an end a long ,complex transfer saga. I'm sure that everyone involved with this deal is quite happy, especially the Barca supporters who came out 75,000 strong to greet their new hero. I think they were a little too strong though, hence the explanation for the pitch invasion. Here are some things Ibra had to say during the course of his supposed hectic day:

Looks like our boy is on his way to Spain. Today he said his goodbyes to his Inter teammates and flew to Sweden to sign some papers. The apparent deal for Ibra that Inter and Barca made is: 40m+Eto'o+Hleb. As an Inter fan i am deeply saddened ...

Update

Sorry for not updating, but after everything that went down with Milan in June I've been kind of disgusted, and went on strike. Since the friendlies have already started and with that the seasons start is just around the corner, I've decided that I need to come back to my Milan life. So coming up ...
