The Pickup Game

By: Samson | May 31st, 2009

It is the final game of the season, duh. So, the question is. What can we expect from this? Seeing as the only matches that matter are:

Roma V Torino: Torino has to fight for survival. Torino needs a win or a draw and Bologna loss no matter what.

Bologna V Catania: Bologna can win or they can draw but only if Torino draws or loses.

Fiorentina V Milan- The battle for 3rd..

Juventus V Lazio- Again, the battle for 3rd.

Whats up!

Well, the boys DO know that no matter what happens, they will play in Serie A next season. UEFA could demand that every league change the points system on the final day. Making a loss count as +4 point and a loss is -1… highly unlikely. Point is, I expect Di Carlo to give the less experienced players a go, just to get an idea of which players are disposable for the summer mercato. The news sources kind agree with me.

The last game

Some stuff…

Bad news, we were denied a UEFA license by the High Courts Of Justice Of Sports. I got two words when it comes to that: Screw them!

The boy is making noise… maybe too much noise.

Pellisier has been called up by Lippi. So you would expect some flattering headlines for him. Something like: “Pellissier breaks into the Azzurri” or “The Verona Golden Boy Earns His Shot At The Big Stage”but no. All I am reading is: “Cassano No! Pellisier Si!” or: “Lippi shows hate for Antonio and shows love to Sergio”. No better way to start your international career (at the age of 30) by living in the shadow of ~~the man whore.~~ Cassano.

The bad.

With great performance comes great interests. Apparently the team we are facing, Napoli are interested in Pellissier. Conflicting statements are coming from Pellissier. One day he says: ” Chievo Is My World” the other day: “Napoli? Who knows”. Hopefully Pellissier and Chievo will reject all offers and he will stay in Verona; however, if he leaves, well it can translate into some extra cash, something we need dearly.
