  1. I think Serie A gets a bad repuation for being 'defensively minded' based on a generation of people watching 90s-early 00's stodgy Italian matches. However, looking at this season the league is the only one from the top 5 leagues with over 3 goals per match on average (3.05), Bundesliga (2.95), Ligue 1 (2.75), Premier League (2.65) and La Liga (2.47). It's also the only one of the top five leagues with over 1,000 goals in the season so far. Looking more specifically at Inter, only Barcelona, PSG, Bayern and Atalanta have scored more goals than them in the top five leagues. The interesting thing is that if Inter and Conte had been more defensively minded in the Champions League this year, they'd have qualified with ease in all probability. Next season they should get an easier draw and that should help them progress. although it does depend on which player they'll have to sell due to their financial position.
  2. Porto appear to have rejected an invite as well:
  3. While we're on Liverpool and their centre backs, how do Liverpool fans see Joe Gomez going forward? It's likely he's going to come back when you have a number of centre backs and every time I've seen him play he's always looked quite shaky. Van Dijk beside him is always going to overshadow him, but a fully fit Matip (for however long that lasts) should be ahead of him and I'd say that Fabinho (and probably even Henderson) have shown themselves to be more capable at centre back. Add Kabak into that, who is younger and has a higher ceiling to him plus any other signings they bring in and I could see him being 5th/6th choice next year. If you give me a fully fit squad for Liverpool just now, Van Dijk, Matip, Kabak and Fabinho start at centre half before Gomez does. I might be massively underestimating him and I don't heavily watch Liverpool so that's why I'm interested in opinions from those that have watched him more over the last few years.

  9. The difference this year is that for the CL games, they used to be every second week whereas this years it's every week. So you'd have went previously, Saturday/Tuesday (CL)/Saturday/Midweek Off (League Cup etc)/Saturday to now Saturday/Tuesday (CL)/Saturday/Wednesday (CL)/Sunday. Plus three international fixtures in both the October and November international breaks instead of the usual two. I'm not sure why the Champions League couldn't have been single leg matches from the round of 16 onwards. You could then expland the group stages to be played up until February next year and then single leg matches late February, March, April and May for the last 16, quarters, semi's and then final.

  11. I now understand why Premier League fans have such an issue with VAR, given that was the first real interaction I've had with it for a match I'm invested in! That celebrating the Marshall save, followed by watching him ask the ref if it was fine, then celebrating again when Marshall did. It was horrible! Always a rollercoaster with Scotland! Then the Ryan Christie interview got me...

  14. Interlagos would be a big loss if they can't come to some sort of agreement, especially with another street circuit being added to the calendar for next year in Saudi Arabia. Nothing against the street circuits but I think this year has proven how exciting the old school style race tracks are compared to the newer street and purpose built tracks. One or two street circuits are fine but having almost a third of the calendar on street circuits next year is going to be a bit of a turn off for the average viewer.
