Our latest abject performance in losing 1-0 to Lazio has soured the holiday spirit for many. When speaking with my brotherly friend from Naples earlier this evening, to exchange our traditional best wishes for Buona Pasqua, he told me he had enough…
How fickle the football gods can be eh! Only four games ago, even the long confirmed cynical such as myself were believing the worm had turned. A superb run of results since that disastrous defeat to Sassuolo saw us flow through 19…
It has certainly been a while since I last felt inspired enough to pour some energy and spill virtual ink for the bianconeri cause. The reasons for this are mainly obvious, with no need for me to explain in great and painful…
With this year’s season imminently nearing a curtain closure, Juventus have already started deploying a blue-print within their preparations for next season as the Bianconeri have reignited their interest in Arsenal full-back Kieran Tierney. So far within this year’s current campaign, the…

Coming towards the closing days of the winter transfer market, many rumours have emerged regarding Juventus. the Bianconeri were the centre of attention as it seemed that American international Weston Mckennie has agreed to join Premier League outfits Leeds United, allowing the…
While many of us expected the January transfer window to be a soothing period to Inter compared to what the Nerazzurri have endured over the course of the summer, the winter mercato has been utterly quite the opposite as it was filled…
Well before the final whistle it was feeling like a humiliation. The home side were passing the ball around, passionate partisan fans cheering with great vigour with every touch from one Partenopei to another, as the Juve players looked on dismayed, chased…

MERCATO mumblings – Late January I must say that I am a little surprised. Pleasantly so. As I have become accustomed to abject failure both on and off the field for many moons now, I was not expecting the welcome flurry of…
