Napoli draw 3-3 at home and concede more ground to the top 2 who both won.
Defence is shocking at the moment.

Juve continue on their merry way.
With our elimination from the CL all focus will be on the league, should win in a canter, probably a dozen points atleast. Best part is being 18 points ahead of Inter and 25 ahead of Milan

Napoli beat Inter 4-2.
Agree Juve are going to romp the scudetto in.
Would like to see Napoli take the Europa League seriously, a final Napoli Vs Juve would be good

Not true, yes Italian football is still defensively minded but in recent years sides have become far more attacking and willing to get forward.
I actually enjoy watching Serie A as much as the EPL, has been some crackers this year

You should watch a few more games then and your opinion might change.
Definitely some v. good games are being played.
All leagues have games that are bore fests

The Juve machine keeps rolling on, gave Cagliari a 1 goal start and then scored 3 in the last 14 minutes to cap of a 4-1 win. Top 3 all won comfortably so its all the same at the top. Was great to see Sassuolo embarass Milan 4-3 though

Yeah bad loss but just a blip on the radar, no way the gypsies will catch us. Been a bit of a procession this season, 30 points clear of 4th and even better 40 clear of Milan

8 points clear with 4 to play, should have the title wrapped up by time we visit the Gypsies in a couple of weeks time. If Milan do the right thing on Saturday it could be all over this weekend

Antonio Conte resigned from Juventus today!!!

This points towards Vidal being sold to United as Conte only extended his contract at the end of last season on the basis that Pogba and Vidal stay and the club brings in proven, world class players to go further in Europe. Letting Sanchez go to Arsenal when we could have bought him for 30m before the world cup and trying to sign players like Iturbe (Verona) Morata (Madrid) and Evra (United) is a clear failure by the board to get what Conte wanted.

As a Juventus fan I find it an absolute disgrace that the club has let him leave. He single handedly drove this team from consecutive 7th place finishes to 3 scudetto's on the trot!

Max Allegri appointed Juventus manager!!!!


Knee jerk reaction by the board, Prandelli or Spaletti would have been better options out of current available managers IMO
Or try and get Deschamps back who is contracted to the French national team.
Still none of the above would be anywhere near as good as the man who walked out this morning.

Serie A has been blown wide open today and it will certainly be an interesting season

Fiorentina Captain Davide Astori has died in his sleep overnight. He was only 31 and became a father just 2 weeks ago.

Serie A games have been postponed.
