My introduction to Daniele De Rossi was the vicious elbow that he threw at Brian McBride, leaving his face bloody in the USA vs Italy match in the 2006 World Cup. It left a negative impression of him but here is De Rossi doing something rare in football nowadays, acknowledging that he used his hand to score a goal against Serie side Messina.

Alberto Aquilani is in contention to make his long-awaited full Liverpool debut on Saturday as Rafael Benítez looks to the £20m summer signing to reinvigorate the club's season against Manchester City.

The Italy international has played only 21 minutes for Liverpool since arriving from Roma in August, as a substitute against Birmingham City and Arsenal, because of his recovery from ankle surgery plus illness.

Un sogno, bellissimo ma che rimarrà tale. Un desiderio pazzesco, che tuttavia non potrà realizzarsi. Perchè il giocatore che Piersilvio Berlusconi vorrebbe vedere con la maglia rossonera addosso, nel Milan di papà Silvio, è niente di meno che Francesco Totti, capitano dei lupacchiotti. Dopo aver ribadito la propria decisione di non entrare nel Milan, il giovane e rampante imprenditore si confessa: "Un campione che ho sempre sognato di avere è Totti perché è un campione straordinario e adoro come gioca ma come fai a prelevare un simbolo di una città ?

Yes, despite cara's hectic schedule with the selecao late last week, Brazil's Felipe Melo found the time to answer Futbolita's questions. En realidad, we spent the whole day running in the airport and walking in the rain last Friday before the all-important call from Felipe's agent came through!

• Phillip Lahm linked with Barcelona?
  
• New Roma deal for Mexes.
  
• Barca and Arsenal making a high-profile swap?
  
• Conor Casey wants out of Colorado.
  
• Inter giving Maicon a new deal?
  
• Dzeko targeted by Man.

Rafael Benítez said last night that he would quit if Fernando Torres is sold against his will. Liverpool's £245m debt has led to questions about whether their US owners, Tom Hicks and George Gillett, would be tempted to sell, even if he was offered £100m for the striker.
"I'm confident it will never happen," the manager said. Click to continue reading...

With December fast-approaching, The Season is in the air. Christmas? Absolutely not. It's awards season. The Argentine sensation known as Lionel Messi has already nabbed the Onze d'Or, a precursor to the Ballon d'Or (with a heft more patriotism) which has predicted the BdO three times in the last four years.

According to ESPN Soccernet, Roma are not exchanging striker Julio Baptista for Tottenham striker Roman Pavlyuchenko. Baptista's agent Herminio Menendez told romannews.eu,

Andrea Dossena's agent hopes his client will be allowed to leave Liverpool so he can secure a World Cup place.
The Italian left-back has struggled to make much of an impact since moving to Anfield from Udinese in the summer of 2008.
He has been heavily linked with a return to his homeland, with Napoli making no secret of their interest, but a move failed to materialise in the summer. Click to continue reading...

Dalla stagione 2010-2011 sarà "operativa" la Tessera del Tifoso. Di cosa parliamo? In sostanza di uno strumento di "fidelizzazione" adottato dalla società che prevede verifiche della Questura attraverso una procedura standard diramata a livello nazionale con direttiva ministeriale. Questo strumento prevede che le società di calcio non possano vendere biglietti a chiunque sia stato condannato, anche in via non definitiva, per reati commessi in occasione o a causa di manifestazione sportive.

Dunga si scaglia contro la Roma. Insomma, una grana in più per la già tormentata stagione che stanno vivendo i giallorossi di Claudio Ranieri. Il Ct del Brasile, alla vigilia di uno scoppiettante test amichevole che i verdeoro disputeranno contro l'Inghilterra di Capello, s'infuria con la società capitolina per non aver avuto a disposizione Juan (nella foto): "Il caso di Juan verrà sottoposto all'attenzione della Fifa, perché la Roma non ce lo ha messo a disposizione.

Paolo Di Canio attacca Francesco Totti. Il derby, che li ha visti contro per tanti anni sul prato dell'Olimpico, si tsrasforma in una contesa di natura verbale. In queste ore, l'ex bandiera biancoceleste, che ora si diletta a fare l'opinionista in tv e studia per diventare allenatore, esprime chiaramente il proprio dissenso per il ritorno in nazionale del giallorosso: "Mi sembra assolutamente fuori luogo.

Fairly good week for goals, as only one game finished 0-0 (Catania-Napoli, but ask Takayuki Morimoto about that). The top scorer table is still wide open, as Di Natale started strong but now has cooled off so he remains at 9, while Hamsik is second with 7 and that's impressive for a midfielder.

Os italianos da Roma não vão ceder o guarda-redes Doni e o defesa Juan à selecção brasileira, num caso muito semelhante ao que envolve Portugal e o Real Madrid, em relação a Cristiano Ronaldo.

A diferença está que, no caso brasileiro, a equipa já está apurada para o Mundial e joga dois encontros de carácter particular.

Who needs actual footballing playoffs when you can just watch the bureaucratic battle that is club v country?

Whilst Portugal v Bosnia Herzegovina is titillating the football purist and Russia v Slovenia has forced Jonathan Wilson into euphoric bouts of nervous bowels, the real battle lies behind the scenes, in the board rooms, between those who cut the checks and those who require international glory.

Milan has really jumped up the table these past few weeks. After the horrible start where everyone condemned the Rossoneri to a season of misery, Leonardo's squad has made a complete turnaround, finally playing well and becoming contenders once again. They now find themselves 5 points behind leaders Inter and only 2 behind Juventus and saying the word Scudetto shouldn't be met with laughter.

Jose Mourinho is a little frustrated with Mario Balotelli. The young striker came on for Patrick Vieira at halftime of Sunday's 1-1 draw with Roma and after the match, Jose wasn't exactly complimentary about his performance:

"Balotelli was terrible today, close to zero. He didn't move, didn't work and did not help the team with [Dejan] Stankovic injured and [Wesley] Sneijder incredibly tired.

Roma-Inter from May of 1999 is another highly entertaining game from one of the most entertaining Serie A seasons of all time. The 1998-99 season had 3 leaders of the table (for the first part of the season it was Fiorentina, who were winter champions but were then hurt by the injury of Batistuta, then Lazio, who looked on their way to the Scudetto but fell off form towards the end, and then Milan who surprised everyone and stole the Scudetto on the last day).
