November 18, 200717 yr People have talked about this as the group of death but i don't really think it's been true- some average results for us with Donadoni but that was to be expected with a new boss, Domenech has proved himself not only a sh*t, lucky and horrible to watch football coach but also a contemptible person and the scottish provided some remarkable consistency with limited talent. I've grown fonder of Donadoni's tactics and my current verdict on him is that he produces a very disciplined side with a typical italian style- defensively great with no space in our box, offensively offering a variety of play with width, short and direct play... The only aspect of his coaching I am still unconvinced by is his player selection. But having said that, I think Panucci was MOtM against scotland and I was happy to see a player underapreciated in britain but who constantly performs for Roma back in the side after the serious of comedy, frankly UN-ITALIAN right sided defenders we've tried recently. I think this side has a real chance of winning the European championships.
November 18, 200717 yr I'll confess that 3 of my top non Chelsea players ever were named................. Barasi, Donadoni, and Maldini All studs back in their day.
November 19, 200717 yr I can't help sometimes thinking that Gennaro Gattuso is my long lost younger brother. The unruly hair, our love of Rangers, our violent and sometimes vicious nature, and needless to say, our mutual hatred of the French - it's all too much to be a coincidence
