Oh finally, Diego and friends are starting to win... for the love of Ciro and
Juve! We were starting to believe that the insults thrown at everyone from Felipe
Melo to the boardroom were never going to end. But perhaps Napoli threw
them a 3-0 lifeline (ok, in calcio Italia, no one ever throws you a lifeline.

Warning: contains occasional insanity, multiple insults, ephemeral nursery rhymes and mild fantasy.
So, here I am on Wednesday morn, with three thoughts in my head which is an improvement of the one
that normally resides there. Thought one: will the game go ahead? If it does the 27.5 Notlob

Senhor Mourinho has finally admitted to insulting a journalist from
Corriere dello Sport... but he will not apologize for his actions. Instead, the
coach expects a Christmas gift because he thinks that thanks to his actions, the dude is now as
famous as Italian pop singer, Eros Ramazzotti.

Hey, Antonio Cassano has two balls, everybody. And he is NOT afraid of you. Apparently he wants
you to know that. From Sky Sport 24 via Goal:
During training on Tuesday, a supporter began to argue with the Italian star and Cassano
reportedly responded with anger, claiming "I have two balls, I am not afraid of you," accompanied
with inappropriate gestures towards the fan.

It was beginning to look like, given the hemming and the hawing, the insults to league and to fans,
followed by furious backpedalling, that Kevin Payne was going to drop the ball and hand Tommy the
keys to season #4. But then a curious thing...

After disappointing performances in Sampdoria's 5-1 thrashing by Juventus and 0-0 draw with
newly promoted giant tripper uppers Bari not to mention the fact that he only has one goal in 10
league matches this season Antonio Cassano was jeered by a section of his home supporters on Sunday
and as you might have expected, he has severely overreacted.

The day after goofing around in the snow and getting their free Audis, Real Madrid were
thoroughly thumped 4-0 in the first leg of their fourth round Copa del Rey tie with third division
side Alcorcon. The loss has been a staggering and embarrassing blow, which has not only put their
Copa campaign in serious doubt, but has manager Manuel Pellegrini on the verge of getting
sacked.

I officially have no voice. It is not very nice and I am resorting to writing insults down and
showing them to the intended recipient rather than just shouting it at them. Some people might say
its karma, I just call it a bloody annoyance, and a painful one at that.
So we make the short trip to Upton Park today and it has been the scene of many a hardfought
game over the past few years and on a few occasions we have come out of it with a big fat 0
points.

Stoke at the Lane today and, if I'm being frank, we should batter 'em. And that's with all due
respect to Tony Pulis and his side of muscled brick houses. Anything less than three points is
calamity.
Jonathan Woodgate could be in line for a first start of the season but one suspects Harry Redknapp
may choose to blood him back into the side in the Carling Cup clash with Everton rather than today.

First, the international week is incredibly boring. Second, I thought I'd start a new post here
on the Italy Offside: Great Serie A games. A post that will show videos of some of the greatest
Serie A games of all time. For the first post I decided to stay fairly recent. We go back to the
2004/2005 season.

BY HARPER:
The intent of this article is not to focus once more on Adebayor and his antics against our
players and supporters at Eastlands. Rather, I wanted to write this piece in response to the
ridiculous myths that have now become entrenched as "facts" with regard to the Gooner Nation in the
aftermath of not only the events of that game, but also the series of incidents that have generated
negative coverage of Arsenal supporters in the last few seasons.

Even putting troubles related for his failures as Argentina's coach aside, Maradona really isn't
doing so great at the moment. For one, he's checked himself into a clinic in order to lose weight
(this, of course, after he's already had gastric bypass surgery). And as if that weren't
demoralizing enough, for some reason he did so in Northern Italy where the finance police eagerly
await his return like your dog waits for you to come home.

It all started when Marcello Lippi said he thought Juventus would win Serie A this season. That
was the spark that ignited Jose Mourinho's insatiable temper and has led to begin an all-out attack
on Lippi that would make your dad cry. Even though Lippi was quick to apologize and say it was just
his opinion, mind you, Jose has unloaded with some daggers:
Lippi passed judgment on television the other night," slammed Mourinho.
