The Offside Trap S01E02 : Cups and Cones






































Lot of heated journalism out there about the callous treatment of yet another African Coach, yet another Nigerian underachievement. I don't get it...He's alive... Since when did the primary worry stop being bloodlusty warlords, ethnic cleansing, football maniac assassins, Aids, and just about a million other clouds of shit the least of which are particularly bellicose wildebeest...., and instead become whether you can manage to get a good letter of recommendation for your next gig???? "mmm..chopped off my hands and burnt my village, but at least this looks good on my resume".

Meanwhile Nagatomo hints at something the whole world has been wondering for 3 years now... Will Del Piero's career EVER end... Parallels with Totti are quite laughable, Del Piero is more the Raul of Juve, would be fitting to send him to Wolfsburg and ask him to purposely play like crap after they sent the Trojan Diego to us. On the topic of Juve Trojans, Ranieri (who's seen more job-layoffs than the entire Lehmann Bros) is fiiinally coaching a team that I won't feel sad about after he completely ruins and obliterates its dignity.

I haven't ruled out the possibility that Moratti looks at Juve's spectacular bounce back from Serie B, and wants the same kind of fairytale storyline for Inter - but losing constantly and getting demoted while teams like Cesena and Lecce continue to exist in Serie A is a lot harder to accomplish than Stankovic and Ranocchia make it seem... You need real talent for that - enter Ranieri. Inter in 16th place, Juve in 1st. Narzi in heaven.
