Gees oh! How long you got ?

 

:smiley-laughing002:

Is he suspended or injured or what?

 

He's injured tonight mate.

 

Juve have really missed Vidal.

 

Milan all over them. Got money on Juve.

Hold out ya *

 

Thanks...it's a shame.

 

Tevez

 

Superb strike. Cannot believe Tarrabt got a start ahead of Eddie Honda

 

Juventus on course for three in a row then. They must surely be favourites to win the Europa League as well.

 

Tevez was head and shoulders above any other player on the pitch tonight. Good strike for the 2nd goal but he was a problem for Milan all night. Rami and Bonera had no answer in dealing with him, apart from fouling him.

It was an interesting game between Milan and Juventus. Milan started with a intent to attack and they did look dangerous but the timing of the two Juventus goals seemed to kill Milan's confidence.

 

Tarrabt is good when he is running at players with the ball. It's when his team is off the ball that he lets himself down. There is a quality player waiting to get out there.

Fiorentina fans protest during the Lazio game last night. The Curva Fiesole empted for the first 10 minutes in protest at recent refereeing decisions.


Banner says "You play your trumpets, we will ring our bells" in reference to a medieval stand off involving the city of Firenze an other cities in Italy.

 

The league is over after the weekend there. The gobbi have too much of a lead now, they wont slip up.

 

Italy v Spain tonight. Parma defender Paletta expected to make his first appearance for la nazionale.

 

Lazio supporters boycotted Sunday's Serie A home match against Atalanta in protest at president Claudio Lotito's running of the club.
Fan anger has grown amid poor league form, a lack of incoming transfer activity and the January sale of playmaker Hernanes to Inter Milan.
Maximiliano Moralez's goal gave Atalanta a 1-0 win over Edoardo Reja's side at a near-empty Stadio Olimpico.
"It's a real shame to see the Olimpico deserted," Lazio boss Reja said.
"We were in with a chance of achieving something significant but it's difficult to play in these conditions.

This situation can't go on. It's a disadvantage for us, as we've seen today."
Those Lazio fans who did attend made clear their opposition to Lotito with banners draped over empty seats. One read, "it's him or us", while another displayed the message, "Lazio is ours and we will leave it to our children".
Supporters have been demonstrating against Lotito since the start of the season, boycotting the opening 15 minutes of a match in September in protest at the club's perceived lack of activity in the close season transfer window.
Lotito also sacked Vladimir Petkovic in controversial circumstances in January, shortly after the Bosnia-born coach signed a deal to take charge of Switzerland from next season.
The dismissal was preceded by a week of chaos, during which Reja took charge of training sessions while Petkovic said he still considered himself to be coach.
After the sale of Hernanes, around 40,000 fans took part in a protest march ahead of last month's 3-2 win against Sassuolo and displayed more banners during the game.
Lazio, who have won five of 10 matches in which Reja has been in charge, stayed eighth after Sunday's defeat with 38 points but have dropped six behind Inter Milan, who are fifth and in the lowest Europa League qualifying place.

 

Hard-fought win for Juventus tonight away to Genoa. It was an even game, Genoa impressive and had some chances. They were awarded a penalty but Buffon saved and Pirlo curls in a majestic free-kick with two minutes to go to nick the win. He is a maestro.

 

Higuain, what a hero!!!

 

After Bayern München's draw, Juventus remain the only side with a 100% win record home among the top-5 European leagues this year.
