Business and family matters to tend to, no time for calcio.

Hopefully once I connect with Sky Italia, that won't be a problem. Inter keep winning, they suck. Most of Thurs is free, I'll be able to watch Roma-Torino.

Only the 3rd best?

Interesting match between two improving clubs. Their shithole stadium is holding Verona back.

Juve dominated Parma today 4-0. Parma are usually shit disturbers but couldn't do nothing. CR7 scored 2 goals, nice ones too.

I read Milan is looking for another striker, they're thing that Zlata may non be able to come back like before. I think he's playing sunday.

He has been doing well all year, now you notice.

The Great Zlatanissimo is 39, his body is starting to betray him. He has achieved his mission to instill a winning mentality into a young club. Rafa Leao is perfectly comfortable holding the line, Milan can persevere until he get better.

Fastest goal scored this season.

Fastest Serie A goal ever. Six seconds! Milan is making me a believer. They are as devastating as any team going forward. Impressive.
They're playing very good and Sassuolo is a good team too.

Atalanta killed Roma, the first period looked like Roma was all over them, they scored a goal. Then the second period BAM Atalanta turned on and scored 4 goals. Great game.

The problem with Roma, when Pellegrini has a bad game the rest of the team follows. Hopefully they can get Eriksen to give him better support. It's not like the Friedkin Family don't have the money, they're bidding to buy the Houston Rockets.

Tonali is beginning to live up to his lofty expectations, amazing dummy to set up Salaeamakers goal.

Goofy shit with the heir apparent.

Juve got humiliated today by Florence. They lost 3-0. Started at the begining with Cuadrado showing studsand got booted by VAR. Bonucci fucked up twice and AlexSandro did a own goal. The forwards couldn't do much. I think they're resigned that its not going to be their year, so there is no effort.

Cesare Prandelli has always been a very good coach, who for some strange reason wasn't given enough time.

That was certainly the case with The Azzurri, he should have stayed on after the 2014 WC but was replaced by Antonio Conte. Conte threw the coaching situation into disarray after the 2016 Euro. Fiorentina were at their best when he coached them for five seasons in the 00's, he can do it again. As a player, he played for both Fiorentina and Juventus. Gaetano Castrovilli is the closest Italy has to Gennarino.

Napoli won their appeal, Juve will have to make up the match.

Ac Milan 3 Lazio 2

I don't like to see the home team lose but if it keeps Inter from the top of the table, I'm semi-ok with it.

A thrilling match that could have gone either way, Theo Hernandez seals the three points from a perfect cross from Calhanoglu. They had luck, Acerbi is on the mend and did not play, he would have gotten to that cross.

Highlights to follow.
At the beginning looked like Milan was going to beat the shit out of Lazio, then Lazio turned on and played better than Milan, but this keeps happening ..at the last minute Milan gets to score. Unbelievable.

Inter is playing good and keeps winning, you got to give them credit for that. I know we're trying to support Dan but, they deserve it.

I can't support Inter, they have no European commitments, they are the favorites. It hasn't got much to do with Eriksen.

Milan are disadvantaged by the three extra matches they played to get into the Europa League. I didn't watch the first half, two goals on two crosses, they really missed Acerbi.

Hard to believe that Gigio is still only 21, seems like he's been around forever. He no longer suffers from the brain farts he had as a teenager, he's beginning to look like the best goaltender in the world. With Zlatanissimo and Kjaer out, it's up to the slightly more veteran players the lead the club like Ale (25), Theo (23) and the beast Frank Kessie (24). He was out with suspension against Lazio but Krunic filled in well.

Milano is getting more snow than we are, haven't been there since 1994. Alex looked pissed, he may have tried to give Rafa a gacci - maybe even injured himself in the attempt. I hope they can keep it going, Inter do not deserve the Scudetto.

I'm not sure what you mean by european commitments, they're playing in the european league.

I hear they might be getting Mandzukic, he's available. I didn't know Kessie is only 24 looks older. Donnarumma looks goofie to me, I'm not saying he's no good, but he's funny when he gets mad. LOL
