Italian Serie A/Serie B 2013-14 Discussion

i'd take €18 for guarin let alone €18,000,000

Derby della Capitale next weekend  

Is it too early to say that Roma are a serious contenders for the 3rd CL spot ?

More serious contenders than Inter.. This Roma team is more united and hungry that it has been in years. their is a sense of unity in the air

Hard to predict Roma, they can get that hard dip in form in a couple of months.

Will be insane atmosphere for Napoli - Dortmund, I have to sacrifice the Milan game for this, unfortunately. Maybe I download it later.

They send waay too many good games at the same time, absolutely ridiculous! Put some games in on Thursday ffs

The only thing that will stop this Roma side is injuries. We're still paper thin beyond our XI. An injury to one of Strootman, DDR or Pjanic, with Bradley already out, would be as catastrophic as an injury to Benatia in defense or one of Totti or Ljajic up front.

Im sure the naziale have made one of their goals to injure some Roma players..

Juve for serie A

Thohir and Moratti are in Paris to finalize the deal. We might get a signature tonight


edit: White smoke: the agreement between Massimo Moratti and Erick Thohir for the sale of majority stakes Inter was found in the morning today. This was announced by Sky Sport 24 , according to which the signatures with which it will be put on paper the agreement are scheduled for next week. If everything were to be confirmed, it may be said that the turning point in history at Inter will finally start.

Gone are the days kits acquisitions were not duopolised by Nike and Adidas. Whatever happened to Kappa, Lotto or Umbro?

All of them pay less than Nike or Adidas.Italian sponsors cant compete with Nike or Adidas financially.

All teams look out for nowadays is which sponsor pays them the most.Hence why Liverpool even accept to wear hideous jerseys since Warrior pay them 30m a year.

Agreed. Also yeah Liverpool's kit is beyond ugly.

Higuain:

"Serie A is tougher than La Liga, that’s for sure. We have a great team, a great coach and I hope I can continue like this."

I never thought i'll reach the day when i'll be proud of Higuain

Francesco Totti on Monday night showed everyone that he is a champions both on and off the pitch, at Parma.During the warm-up before the match which Roma were about to play away at Parma, there was a speaker announcment. It was about a girl, named Chanel , that needed an urgent surgery at Boston in the USA, in order to fight a rare disease and hopefully stay alive.An initiative which was started by Parma FC and its fans included collecting funds to help this little girl's family in their expenses to cure their daughter. Francesco Totti heard this message during the warm-up and soon went to meet her just before the match, talked to her and hugged her.After the match, Roma's captain offered to help the young Chanel, and will organize a fundraiser together with Parma fans.Chanel's family need approximately 300,000 euros in order for their child's treatment.

lol Zlatan your sig is hilarious

BREAKING NEWS: Roma confirm new Totti deal

The Giallorossi legend has been in talks with the capital club over a new deal for some time and has now penned a contract that is likely to see him end his career in Rome

Roma have confirmed that Francesco Totti has signed a two-year contract extension that will see him remain at Stadio Olimpico until 2016.

The 36-year-old's current deal had been due to expire at the end of the current season but after lengthy discussions with the capital club, the Giallorossi legend revealed his delight at extending his stay with his hometown club on Friday.

"I have another two years of responsibilities and I'm sure we'll achieve some great things together," Totti told reporters at a press conference.

"I'd like to thank the president for this new contract. Everyone wanted it to happen, me and the club."

Totti retired from international duty after winning the World Cup with Italy in 2006 but his form last season - which saw him score 12 goals in 36 Serie A appearances - prompted speculation he could return to the Azzurri fold.

And though he insists his primary focus remains improving on last season's sixth place finish with Roma, the Italian admits he would consider a recall if Cesare Prandelli comes calling.

He added: "Going to the World Cup? My jersey is the Roma jersey but obviously I remain open to the possibility. We'll see."

Club president James Pallotta was sat beside Totti at the announcement of his new deal and said his committment to the club was a sign of progress.

"I'm honoured that Francesco Totti is staying here and I'd like to toast to a great future for Roma and Francesco," said Pallotta.

"I'm pleased with what we've achieved in the last few months. We're a work in progress and we're forging ahead."

“Jewish Giallorossi, Jewish Giallorossi,” Lazio fans chanted around the 30th minute of last night’s Europa League match at the Stadio Olimpico.
