Curva Sud Milano

I agree, he's a very underrated GK but he's excellent... he and Caprile are much, much better than Vicario for example. The real scandal, however, is that no one abroad has noticed Roma goalkeeper Svilar, especially because when you watch PSG-Chelsea you realize they have two clowns as goalkeepers.

You have to be Italian to understand the humiliations they've suffered over such a long period of time... in Serie A's golden age (1985/2005), they spent twice as much as us on player acquisitions and won one Scudetto and a couple of UEFA Cups, while we won seven Scudettos and four Champions Leagues... they had an unreal player like Ronaldo (and let's remember that the Ronaldo of PSV/Barca/Inter was an alien...not like the Ronaldo who went to Madrid in 2002) and they failed to win anything even with him. Over the last four/five years, the difference in quality between them and the other Serie A teams is abysmal and yet they managed to lose two championships in an unreal manner... honestly, if I were an Inter fan, I'd be foaming at the mouth with rage... I can understand them.

However, their real gem is Dimarco; Bastoni is good but Dimarco is more versatile and has a delightful left foot.

He had bet that he would get his opponent sent off.

Inter fans are furious with their club because Bastoni is valued only €10 million more than Thiaw. Typical of the cunts they are, we're their obsession.

In Italy there is talk of strong interest from Barcelona and some English clubs but without naming which ones.

The only European team I hate is Barcelona, who (for years) made simulation a game strategy...Cucurella, in fact, comes from that Club.

Can we give you Leao ???...it doesn't matter if he doesn't want to leave Milan, we'll bring him from Milano to Newcastle by force !!!

Bastoni is up for sale this summer. After the Inter-Juve incident, he want to go abroad (he's currently booed by opposing fans wherever he plays, and many would like to see him out of the national team too). His €70 million valuation has now dropped to €50 million, and at that price he's a great deal.

I understand...It was basically your worst purchase in the last 5 years. Let's hope that at least Milwall or Birmingham want to buy him, otherwise Sandro is done with football.

"Father, forgive them for they know not what they do."

At the start of the second half, in defense, he "misplaced" a pass to Hall that should have gone forward, and the ball ended up out... sometimes Tonali misplaces the pass, sometimes his teammates don't understand what they have to do to receive the pass. It also seems to me that he got angry, one of the few times that happens.

When you talk about players "PL proven" you underestimate the fact that (historically) foreign players adapt well to your league... both Northern and Southern European players have always adapted well to the PL, even South Americans in general; paradoxically the only ones who have a harder time are the Germans, which is very strange given that they're culturally closer to you. Players like Vialli and, to some extent Zola, who were considered "finished" in Italy had brilliant second careers in the UK. Perhaps for some, especially South Americans, it can be difficult to adjust to life in UK but certainly not to your football.

Translated by Google: "On a Sunday in June 1993, near a small town on the railway line between Milan and Genoa, two trains crossed. The first carried 1.000 Sampdoria fans headed to Brescia to watch the Brescia-Sampdoria match. The second carried 600 AC Milan fans, heading to the Ligurian capital for the Genoa-Milan match. Due to roadworks, the two trains were forced to slow down for a while, allowing the two sets of fans to recognize each other and exchange their first insults from the windows. It was a matter of moments. The emergency brakes were applied, and the two trains were forced to stop in the open countryside. Within moments, a full-blown battle broke out between the opposing factions, and by the end of the clashes, 60 people were injured and 50 were arrested."

We've always hated each other, and they've hated us more since in the early '90s there was a huge fight in the open countryside and they (who were more numerous) lost their face. I was there on one of the two trains; it was the last day of the championship. We were few because we had already won the Scudetto, they were more numerous because they were going to an important match... the police arrived only after two hours. You can imagine what happened that day with 1,500 ultras fighting each other for two hours. If you search "Pontecurone Milan Sampdoria" maybe you might still find a short video shot by someone who lived there.

Even their symbol, the seaman with pipe is wonderful.

A team I hated, a shirt I loved....

Reijnders, who seems to have lost Guardiola's trust and could be sold, would be the perfect midfielder for you... much more than Anderson.

Always in our hearts...Thank you Hauge !!!

In many cases the natural/unnatural position is often a referee's interpretation. Aston Villa vs. Newcastle a few days ago...do you consider Digne's armball unnatural or not?

It's not like that, the main rules don't change... the interpretations do and a lot too !!! And they end up "changing" the rule but this should only apply to national championships. The handball rule is always the same, simply (also to help the referees) any arm detached from the body is always considered unnatural...same rule different interpretation. A "rule" that the FIGC changed two years ago so that handballs would be punished less severely: "An obvious foul (for example, an arm over the shoulder, which is always punishable by definition) will not result in a red card if the player is inside the penalty area; however, if the player is outside, it will always result in a red card. A red card will always be issued if the foul is considered deliberate and "voluntary," meaning the movement of the arm (or hand) toward the ball will be decisive". Before 2024 it was always red. "Minor rules" can be changed by the federations but they are only valid for their respective championships and in fact the VAR is very different from country to country.

But it's not just an Italian thing, they whistle that penalty everywhere and in fact the referee gave it.

Nothing, because VAR doesn't intervene and (believe me, because I was very pessimistic about this but I was wrong) refereeing errors are rare in that case, and in truly dubious incidents, it's better that the referee to decide. In an ideal world VAR should only intervene for offside and in all those episodes where the referee is far from the action or obscured by players.

In Italy the rule was the same as yours until 10-15 years ago. Every week there was controversy... they changed the rule and the controversy disappeared because it's so easy to see when the arm is attached to the body or not. You're taking this Qarabag case which is very simple because it's obviously involuntary and natural but there are dozens of cases you can't understand so easily.
