Remember Serie A tifosi this is a short week in Italy, Match Day 4 games are being played on Wednesday, September 24th. Tricky match for Roma away to Genoa this match day and although they've found their footing and confidence, in beating Reggina 3 – 0 Match Day 3, I think this one is going to […]

The AC Milan vs Lazio match saw a variety of impressive goals but the one which sticks out above the rest was the winner scored by Gianluca Zambrotta. Zambrotta's is Goal of the Week for the following reasons, 1. distance 2. location 3. power 4. as a fullback Zambrotta doesn't score often, making this a very special goal compared to the rest netted by seasoned goalscorers this week. (honourable […]

Calling all Milanista, I got it wrong and admit it but what's more important is understanding why. The key to today's victory was manager Ancelotti getting back to basics. Take a look at the starting XI, leaving Ronaldinho and Andriy Shevchenko on the bench was the right move. Ancelotti would instead go with young Pato, Marco Borriello and a Pirlo-less midfield which supported the front two while […]

West Ham wins at home against Newcastle and that's good news for newly arrived manager Gianfranco Zola. Zola was simply beaming with encouragement and praise for his players who helped secure his first home win as manager at the London club. See what else he has to say during the post-match interview.

Can Roma and AC Milan turn things around this week? I think Roma will and must as Mourinho and Inter already have that 3 point lead which cost Roma the title last season. AC Milan are having injury trouble already so Clarence Seedorf will have to fill the absence of Andrea Pirlo in the midfield and […]

It was an outstanding performance for Italian football in the first round of UEFA Cup action, as all four Serie A clubs registered first-leg victory. AC Milan adjusting to a non-Champions League season are full steam ahead winning 3 – 1 over FC Zürich. This triumph couldn't have come at a better time for Rossoneri […]

The Old Lady of Turin has been absent from Champions League play since the calciopoli scandal of two seasons ago but you wouldn't have known it, especially once the home side took the lead in the 76th minute, from a Del Piero free kick which was simply spectacular. Juventus came close on several other chances and looked deadly […]

This week's winner was scored by Fabrizio Miccoli. Miccoli bagged two goals on Sunday against Roma but it was the first one which was particularly nice and helped set tempo for the rest of the match. Sadly Miccoli left the match after experiencing a muscular injury in the second half and Palermo are currently awaiting results on the extent of […]
