Oh my gosh! Headlines today are giving me the chills! Why? Hello, it’s no secret that I am a super fan of “Coach Carlo Ancelotti” not only as coach, but since the time he played for Milan and then coaching Milan. BAMMM I can’t bear to see Juventus challenging beloved Ancelotti. Sure, my favorite La Liga team has been also Real Madrid since the time of RAUL! So, bam! Mamma mia… I will be struggling watching Juventus vs Real Madrid. However, I agree with the headlines that it is a MISSION POSSIBLE… not impossible. Juventus have a super challenge to really shine in Europe now… and hello, hello, hello, if you ask me, I will cry of joy to see beloved Juventus Captain and goalkeeper GIGI BUFFON lifting the Champions League Trophy!!!!!!!! and TEVEZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ I am telling you my friends, this draw is just SPECTACULAR. I am ready to root for JUVENTUS…. I know Ancelotti will understand…. and ehem ehem…. Cristiano Ronaldo… Ok, I carry the water bottles for Tevez, Marchisio, Chiellini, Bonucci, Buffon, Pirlo, Llorente, Vidal, Pereyra, Storari, Morata, Lichtsteiner, come on Juve, you can do it!!!
Loving to see the headlines also for the Europa League Semifinals with our 2 Serie A teams: Fiorentina and Napoli!!!!! Party party party partyyyyy Fiorentina will play against Sevilla while Napoli against FC Dnipro. Come on, guys, I think Fiorentina and Napoli can pass to the FINAL!!!!!!!
Headlines for Inter – Roma already deciding the future… It’s Inter vs Roma today and Udinese vs Milan!!!! This is the last chance for Inter and Milan to keep dreaming with Europe for next season…. Roma under pressure
Oh oh spaghetti ohhhhhh I am not sure whether I like or not the headline on “Mr. Bee arriving and offering Milan half….” Are we seeing the end of an era?
