Palermo-Napoli 2-1

Tuesday, 10 February 09, 06:47 PM

Palermo beat Napoli 2-1 on Sunday evening at the Renzo Barbera Stadium in Palermo. All the goals were scored in the 1st 43 minutes, and my Napoli team was asleep for the 1st 15 minutes of the game, and it cost them 2 goals. the 1st goal in the 2nd minute off a corner kick by Fabrizio Miccoli, was scored by (here we go again) Neapolitan born Giulio Migliaccio his 1st of the campaign. and in the 14th minute another Palermo goal, this by Simplicio on an assist from Miccoli, who was the best player on  the pitch.

Napoli answered back on a pretty goal by Marek Hamsik his 9th of the season, in the 43rd minute on an assist from German Denis.

Napoli attempted to tie the game all through the 2nd half, but only had one real chance By Ezequiel Lavezzi, in the 73rd minute which Marco Amelia made a good save on.

I know that this will sound like a broken record, but, I again blame this loss (Napoli's 7th consecutive defeat away from home,and 4th out of  5 overall) on Coach Reja.

He had the wrong players in the wrong positions. Example Salvatore Aronica who is a right-defender was playing on the left side and not by coincidence was beaten by the Palermo players on not 1 but both goals.

2 why is Mateo Contini even in the squad, He makes me wish for Savini back from Palermo.

Also, Christian Maggio was out of position again.

Let me say this, I would fire Reja immediately, and bring in Roberto Mancini, before Chelsea, who just sacked Scolari, decide to grab him.

I will tell you this, if Napoli do not win their next 2 games, both at home, against Bologna and Genoa, to reach 40 points. before they return to Torino. REJA WILL BE SACKED I GUARENTEE IT. if they dont beat Bologna Saturday evening, He'll be sent packing back to Gorizia. Let's enjoy Italy-Brazil today (Tuesday) from London.

Also tommorow France-Argentina in Marsailles.

Marcelo Lippi goes for the all time record by an Italian Manager of 32 consecutive games without a loss on the Azzurri Bench, which would surpass 2-time World Cup winning Manager Vitorio Pozzo who had gone 31 matches without a defeat in the 1930's.

Buona Fortuna Marcelo. (good luck)

The Battle for 4th (Genoa, Fiorentina, and AS Roma)

Friday, 06 February 09, 06:05 PM

Genoa currently sit in 4th on the Serie A table a mere 3 points behind Juventus, just past the half way mark of the season. They have been playing some beautiful football, in fact, if
you haven't seen them play so far this season; make it point to see them.

Can, the oldest club in Italy, maintain their current form and catapult themselves into European football and reap the massive financial boost it would inject into the club?

Fiorentina and AS Roma are breathing down the il grifone collective necks sitting at 5th and 6th place with 38 and 37 points, just 2 + 3 points back from GFC. Genoa has had the hot hand this season and has pleasantly surprised Serie A, but is that enough to carry them thru to the remainder of the season?

AS ROMA and Fiorentina are clearly deeper clubs, but can they rely on their historical performances in Serie A to lift them to top 4? Genoa are not going to go down without a
fight.

AS Roma need their deadly club icon, Totti, to heal and lead the Roman side back into Europe, but the Giallorossi have been inconsistent with their quality of play, but have
been pouring it as of late; I believe the spark came with the CL matches vs. Chelsea. AS Roma host Genoa this weekend, setting up what should be a fantastic fixture.

Fiorentina are hosting this weekend a limping Lazio side. Mutu and Gilardino are solid and should do well vs. the Biancocelesti.

This season of Serie A has been one of the tightest and most exciting in recent years. With 2nd place thru 6th separated by a mere 6 points , every point is going to be huge in the
final stretch.

Whoever said, "Serie A is boring", OBVIOUSLY hasn't been watching this season!
