For those who spent Saturday and Sunday away from the television and internet, or were too busy
watching the Manchester Derby, here are some lessons we have learned (or in some cases relearned)
from this past weekend's Serie A action:
Gianluigi Buffon is the key for a Juve scudetto: Although he has some
mileage between his numerous Serie A and international matches, and the Juventus attack is
quite good, the 2-0 Juventus win over Livorno shows that Buffon still dominates matches
for his team.
The Italian Serie A kicked off with a round of midweek games, many spectacular not only results
wise, but also the repurcussions that the results will have. Here is a wrap up of the biggest games
of this matchday.
Inter Milan faced off against Palermo, providing an eight goal thriller with the final score being
5-3 to the neroazzurri.

Guidolin has revolutionized Parma, with young Italian players like Paloschi and Galloppa, mixing
with older players that share their experience like Panucci and Zaccardo, Parma has turned into a
team that is ready to shine. With an experienced coach like Francesco Guidolin, Parma look to be a
consistent side that won't die out after a few more games.
Out of sight, out of mind he may be but Valeri Bojinov is impressing nonetheless during the 2009/10
season.
Faced with the prospect of little playing time after almost two full seasons blighted by injury, he
joined Parma - who returned to Serie A at the first attempt - on the eve of the season and has
played a full part in their surprising run that sees them currently in third place in the table.
According to Sky Sports News, Manchester City striker Valeri
Bojinov would like to make his loan deal with Parma permanent. He told
La Nazione,
"Parma was my opportunity, I thank the chairman (Tommaso) Ghirardi, sporting director (Pietro)
Leonardi, (Francesco) Guidolin and also (Cesare) Prandelli, who put in a good word for me.
