Momo - 1st Juve game today

[Whitey]

Just watching 2nd half of Juventus vs. Cagliari and Momo came on as a sub replacing Tiago I think.

 

Sitting in front of back 4, has been solid - "crowd are warming to him already, he's made a couple of good challenges and has been neat on the ball" - is a fair summary. Has been feeding short balls to the better players.

 

Two comedy moments - Momo suddenly got time and space and tried to play a long cross field ball to RW - hit 3 opposing players in the way. Some things never change!!

 

2nd comedy moment - Cagliari forward is called - AcquaFresca...has advertising now got this bad in Italy, a player can now be 'owned' by a shower gel???

 

Anyhoo - Good to see Momo getting on quickly, and looks like he'll fit in well.

Good luck to him and hope he does well.

[Sion]

He'll be their new fave player for 6 months, think £8m was a steal, then they'll realise he's actually rubbish.

[lfc003]

It was a good move for everyone, I can see him being a star in the Italian League

[Guest Anders Honoré]

Sitting in front of back 4, has been solid

 

Where he should be. Think he will do good for them in that role.

[ManxRed]

He should get a bit more time on the ball there too, so his passing might improve.

 

I think he'll do well.

Juve top ‘corrected’ table

La Gazzetta dello Sport has created an alternative Serie A table where refereeing errors are corrected and Juventus lead the pack.

 

As controversy rages over alleged ‘favouritism’ in Inter’s favour and confidence in the officials plummets, a survey was undertaken to see which sides have suffered the most at the hands of the referees.

 

Research showed that Milan had been treated most harshly and would be sitting in fourth place, were it not for questionable decisions.

 

Inter were awarded eight points fewer after review and lose their supremacy at the top to Juve, who have benefited six times from errors but been unjustly penalised on nine occasions.

 

La Gazzetta dello Sport’s Serie A table:

1. Juventus 48

2. Inter 45

3. Roma 45

4. Milan 41

5. Fiorentina 36

6. Atalanta 33

7. Palermo 28

8. Sampdoria 28

9. Udinese 28

10. Napoli 27

11. Genoa 26

12. Reggina 25

13. Lazio 24

14. Livorno 23

15. Catania 21

16. Siena 21

17. Parma 19

18. Torino 18

19. Cagliari 16

20. Empoli 15

So they've definitely stamped out referee corruption then?

[Murphman]

Momo was f*cking ace until he got that eye injury. Not as good as Masch of course and I'm glad he's getting a game now but people have short memories.

 

Him going has messed up a heap of songs mind.

This season and most of last Momo was a disgrace...brilliant business getting 8mill for him.....i was expecting far far less.

[Bailo]

Ironic to see Juventus moaning about refereeing bias. Not enough in the pot eh lads?

A 'disgrace' is somebody who behaves abominably or doesn't try. Momo lost his form that's all

:lol:

F*ck me, they'll never stop.

 

Inter have had a man sent off in three of their last four games (all in the first half) and a v dodgy pen to give Empoli a late equaliser last Sunday. Cesar saved it.

 

F*ck Juve, the c****.

Mascherano is on a totally different level to Momo, he's truly world class.

Don't expect Murph to grasp what you mean until the fifty sixth or seventh attempt.

I did get it, Masch scores nil to one? Very drol l, on the wider issue I REALLY rate Masch, I mean proper rate him as one of the best at what he does in the world, up there with Gerrard and Torres, Momo I love to bits but he isn't in the same stratosphere.

 

and best of all Masch plays for us....
