Good morning my friends.     Happy Sunday!  I hope you are having a great Sunday sharing with family and friends.   I am happy and getting ready to see our Serie A teams AS Roma, Inter, and AC Milan in the United States for their participation in the International Champions Cup.  Yep.  Roma had their final training in Trigoria today and will depart to the United States tomorrow Monday….    Headlines are just going wild!!!

Let me tell you, I almost faint when reading the headline about AC Milan looking for a Captain and why not promoting Mario Balotelli as Captain?  Say what!!!!! You got to be kidding, that was my first thought considering the on going misbehavior and lack of maturity being the latest thing taking his photo with a gun dedicated to the haters.  Oh well….  gone are the time of top and committed players such as great Captain Paolo Maldini or the ex Inter Captain Javier Zanetti….. well… the last role model – active –  Captain is Roma captain Francesco Totti.
Talking about Zanetti, mamma mia! What a scary moment! Zanetti was rubbed in Argentina, but that’s not all. The scary part is that theft pointed him with a gun and stole his car. I cannot picture this! Zanetti? Hello, he is one of the most outstanding footballers not only for Inter, but also for Argentina… wondering if those thefts knew they were robbing him!

Headlines favorable for Juventus seeing  now their latest signing, Spaniard Alvaro Morata , ready to train with his new team.  Not just any transfer, but as reported he is worth 100 millions!  Will it be the key player for the new Juventus coach Massimiliano Allegri?

Get this one, guys…. Rumors gaining momentum with the possible signing of Antonio Conte as new Italy Head Coach!!!! For the moment, even Sacchi giving his blessing.  Do you think Conte will be the top choice to rebuild the Italian team to greatness again?

Good morning my friends.  Wow, guys, it is a surprising morning and not a good one for Juventus fans after the shocking  resignation of coach Antonio Conte.  It is a roller coaster morning!!!   Headlines putting two candidates as possible substitutes including  the ex AC Milan coach Massimiliano Allegri and ex Inter coach Roberto Mancini.  I don’t know what to say… I cannot even imagine what might be going on inside of Conte’s head.  Surely, Conte put Juventus back at the top in Italian football winning three consecutive Scudetto.  Conte’s commitment to the Club, players, and fans was remarkable.  Simply put, differences with the top management….    Here is the thing, Allegri sacked for the poor results with Milan and he was the one not wanting midfielder Andrea Pirlo……  If Allegri becomes Juve coach what will happen with Pirlo?

And the “Balotelli saga” continues… headlines now stating that Coach Filippo Inzaghi is pampering Balotelli for the love of Milan.  I am wondering whether or not Balotelli should continue with Milan.  Too much tension and really not a decisive player after all.  Milan failed even to qualify for Europa League, not to mention Champions League.  Latest joke was Balotelli taking a photo with a shot pointing  saluting “the haters.”  Your take?

Good morning my friends.  Have a coffee or tea to enjoy this beautiful morning.  I already prepared my big Cappuccino cup.   I am so sad to  read the news on Coach Davide Nicola’s son dying in a bus accident at only 14 years old.  It makes me really sad and my prayers for Nicola and his family.

Serie A transfer market up and down…  Reportedly, Iturbe in a hurry to define his future, but most likely pressing is for Juventus.  On the other hand, Torino awaiting for the Juventus forward Fabio Quagliarella.

Talking about rebuilding the Italian national team, I just love the headline that we should learn from the Germans on how to rebuild a World Cup.  Surely, Italy now are in big debt with the fans after their poor Word Cup performances not only in 2010, but also in Brazil.  Italy are no longer the solid strong team, but in a shaking stage.   It’s time to rebuild and choose players who really love and are fully committed to play for the Azzurri at a Champion level.
