  3. Ancelotti: Serie A tougher than Europe Saturday 20 September, 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Milan may have won the Champions’ League last season, but their Coach Carlo Ancelotti maintains the Scudetto is a tougher task. “When foreign sides play against the Italians,” explained the tactician, “they have trouble finding space. On the contrary, Serie A outfits abroad find more room than they are accustomed to and can express themselves freely.” The latest example of winning ways was exhibited by Inter’s 3-0 victory at Highbury, becoming the first ever Italian to beat Arsenal in their ground. “The Nerazzurri really impressed me,” said the Milan boss. “On a tactical level they were simply perfect.” Like many pundits, Ancelotti believes that the turning point for the Peninsula sides was the humiliating 2002 World Cup exit. “That tournament saw the attacking teams triumph, while the more prudent outfits were punished. Since then we have clearly understood that an attitude change was needed.” For two years running up to the World Cup, Italian teams had struggled in Europe and failed to reach the quarter-finals of the Champions’ League. The sea-change was immediate, giving Milan the trophy and three out of the final four plied their trade in Serie A. “We discovered the joy of playing open and attacking football,” confirmed Ancelotti. “But at the same time we remembered the Italian talent for an organised defence.” Chelsea Manager Claudio Ranieri agrees with this analysis and praised Inter’s victory in London. “Their tactical discipline, incredible work-rate of Emre and Cristiano Zanetti, not to mention the unbreakable defence,” explained Ranieri. “Julio Cruz and Obafemi Martins were also crucial, but everyone that night was just fantastic.” “A few years ago Italian football made the mistake of choking up the midfield with too many ball-winners,” noted the former Fiorentina boss. “When we saw that leaving out creativity simply did not pay, the attitude changed and the results came with that development.”
  4. Yep. (1)Lets hope Inter eliminate Arsenal from the first group and save us all from the histrionics from the english media, (2)and then hopefully Inter will the knocked out in the following stage, Well the 1st part has come to fruition lol arsenal remain very predictable in Europe

  9. Ahh you are in deed now taking rubbish saxiib . Seria A is thee most competitive League in teh world. The La Liga title with the exception of the last 10yrs have been the sole preseve of Barac or Real, its only recently that clubs such as Valencia and Depor have emergered as reall threats. The premiership and Bunders liga?? well i dont need ton say much here any fool would know that only 1 team have reign in each league with the exception of 1 or 2 poor years of transition Where as Seria A the league u call slow and boring has had the following Conclusion in the last 10 yrs: 1993-1994 1st Milan 1994-1995 1st Juentus 1995-1996 1st Milan 1996-1997 1st Juventus 1997-1998 1st Juventus 1998-1999 1st Milan 1999-2000 1st Lazio 2000-2001 1st Roma 2001-2002 1st Juventus 2002-2003 1st Juventus
  10. Hey thx fort the info, but to be honest whe its your time its your time, there wont be any percautions you will be able to take
  11. But to be honest Lads who cares Its all about Francesco Totti the Best Football in the world
  12. I think chelsea will prove alt of people right this year and alot of people wrong , i just fail to see how a team boasting such a tremedous squad will fail to be there or there abouts in all the competions. I agree with you shaqsii when u say that there is the danger that they have bought some perhaps finished players, but Veron, Mutu, Makelee, Crespo will be bigg bigg players in teh premiership. But i can see Man U winning it people, with Arsenal and Chelsea fighting it out for second place. But Arsenal's poor Squad might cost them yet again.
  13. I guess you just butter your toast diffeent to me then bro , but at least your not one of this mad Premiership fans :confused: .....i just cant bye there argument.
  14. Apphy Bday FS so is the 4/09 the new Jan 1 .....
  15. looool I there is no problem Baay saxiib thats it let it all out saxiib am sure u feel much better now. I agree with u again saxiib, footie is about entertainment, but what might be entertainment to you might not be entertainment to me saxiib. There is no universally accpeted football flava excpet for what the brazilian play. I hate fast lucky footie, i love fast skill fully tactically mastery so its only natural that i woudl watch SERIA and sometimes when there bigg games like R madrid and Braca, La Liga and last but not least Champions league which is the standard setter for desirable football. I still belive you guys are being unscrupulous in ur discription of italian football, infact i bet that you Baay dont watch Seria A too much. You cannot tell me taht the Parma Bologna game wasnt phaaaaaat?? can you.
  16. Salam Calayakum Dawaco I dont no that somali parents have become hypocritcs, thats perhaps too bold a statement for me to concour with , i certainly agree with you in that too many parents leave parenting of their children sometimes to the TV which isnt a desirable thing to do with the content that is now days on tv from even earlier than 9pm ((here in the uk)) I think with giving the children the islamic education ((which is a duty on every parent)) they should follow it up with generally more parenting and guidance @ home, and certainly less Tv.
  17. Salam Calayakum, wlcm to the site saxiib.
  18. Happy birthday Runway_V Lots of Love and kisses from you Nomad bROTHER

The percentage of Christians is similar between the two countries but the proportion of people who follow other religions is 6.0 per cent in England compared with 1.5 per cent in Wales. In England, 3.1 per cent of the population state their religion as Muslim (0.7 per cent in Wales), making this the most common religion after Christianity. For other religions, 1.1 per cent in England and 0.2 per cent in Wales are Hindu, 0.7 per cent in England and 0.1 per cent in Wales are Sikh, 0.5 per cent in England and 0.1 per cent in Wales are Jewish and 0.3 per cent in England and 0.2 per cent in Wales are Buddhist.

  20. All i can say is that we as somali people owe our survival to the our somali women who have and continue to overcome obsticales ofter obsticales in these countries we fled too, whilst the men continue to distory each other back home and continue this bullshit that is separation and demonisation and destruction on the basis of qaabill. Props to our Mothers, Grand mothers, aunties and all of our somali females. We survived as a people through your collective struggle.
  21. I got to agree with the general comments . But that said i am learning to not make that the overriding factor, physical attraction is a key pre-requiste to a successfull union......however i think people unfortauntely get caught up with just Phhsyical attarction, i dont blame you guys as i would be blaming myself aswell :rolleyes: . Its better to have someone to talk to than just someone to errgghhm look @
  22. I begg to differ saxiib i think if you look @ the last decade and indeed the history of football you will find Italian football has dominated, and taken more than its fair share of success. on a club Level: Milan have 6 European Cup Truimps, and too much super cups and uefa cups and world club cups Juve have 2 European Cups and have made three success finals in a ro in the mid 90's the only team ever to have done that. They have competed in 4 finals in the last 15 years. I dont even wanna try to work out how many uefa cups and the rest of the otehr they have one. Then there is Lazio and Parma an inter who have all won the uefa cup and cup winners cup in the 90's and it goes on and on. If you look @ the international stage well i think you would have to back off and hold your hands up and Not even dare to try to compare Engalnd or indeed Spain to Italy. Italia i belive have won 3 world Cups, they have in total played in 5 World Finals i think. They with germany are easily the best teams in europe if you gho by history. And they where unlucky to have lost out to a lucky, Zizou Inspired French in Euro 2000 where they where the best team.
  23. People keep mistaking infatuation or simple attraction for love, so the question shouldn’t be “why do fools fall in love?”, but “Why do people exaggerate?” Well to be easy i suppose the two emtions are somewhat enterchangable n easliy confuseable
