Re: Serie A Thread - 2010/11 Season
yep neo, pirlo's contract should expire this summer. oh and don't worry about chiellini. yesterday he said on tv that he would never leave juve in this "tough moment", not even for real madrid.

Enjoy the final occasion, its always a great way to end the season.
well, a lousy coppa italia final can't really compare to a champions league final, but yeah, i agree with u

the thing is palermo has never won a trophy ever since i was born, so this final, the emotions of having a chance to lift a trophy, this is all new to me and palermo fans... so the fact that is "just a worthless coppa italia" doesn't really matter to us anymore... because, let's face it, it's not like we're gonna lift a champions league or win a scudetto any time soon.
whenever a great cycle ends in a midlcass club, u never have anything left to remember it by. in the last 10 years palermo had 3 great cycles and built 3 great teams, but since (no matter how good they play) midclass clubs never win any league or cup, when those cycles are over, u can only remember how good that team was and how nice or tough or balanced was their football. and that's it.
this time we have the occasion to truly leave a mark with this team. to get something that will help everyone remember this team. "
u see that coppa italia? that's the coppa delio rossi's palermo won in 2011. it was a great team, very entertaining to watch and with many great players"
that would be nice

however it's gonna be damn hard. inter is gonna play the game of their season (coz that's the only chance they have left to give a meaning to this season) and we are gonna play without the leader of our defense (bovo) and our central midfielder (bacinovic). this doesn't sound good at all. besides inter (mostly thanks to leonardo) is the most unpredictable team. if u cacth them in a bad mood u can easily beat them, but in a good day, they can beat every team on the planet (barca included).
let's hope to find them in a "schalke-mood"
the special one said:
A very interesting display showed by Palermo last night. The team seemed a bit nervous in the first hab but then things went normal at the second half. I'm glad to see you in the final, surely one of the most entertaining teams I have seen this season, especially in that game at Meazza against Inter, curiously the opponent you're gonna face 29th May in Rome
i noticed something strange this season. whenever we face milano's teams (both inter and milan) we completely change our game. we're a team which works its way to the goal through ball possession. our passing game is our trademark. yet whenever we faced milan or inter, we based our gameplan on counters. it didn't happen with every top team, only the milanese ones.
i thought of this because u said u were impressed by our display in san siro against inter, earlier this season (i suppose u're talking about that crazy 3-2 match)..... and yeah we were actually pretty good... but that's not exactly our football. i'm quite sure the only games we didn't have possession for most of the match were the games against the 2 milanese teams. to be honest our usual football (the football we display against roma or lazio or napoli or any other team this season) is even more entertaining than that.... but i got to admit, we play some pretty good counter attacking football, for being a "not counter attacking team".
counters are something that requires lots of practice (that kind of practice u can only do during matches and not in training sessions), so we should be quite poor at that.... but for some reason we aren't, as we did pretty well against milan and inter this season.
anyway special one, i strongly suggest u to watch some others palermo matches from this season and last season. the inter game was good, but trust me, we are much better than that!

anyway thanks for the congrats and the support guys
