    Gazetto dello sport released the players wages of all clubs. It's a lot lower than I expected to be honest.

    After many years away my Serie A fix has returned courtesy of being an existing BT customer, nice freebee!

    Have to agree with the recent posts on Napoli, they looked amazing first 15 mins or so in the San Siro.

    I'm going back for my second Italian game (first was Milan v Roma, 1-0 Inzaghi) next month and plan to go to Fiorentina v Juve. An old friend now lives with his family near Pisa and he'll join me. Can't wait!

    Thing is I know the Viola website mentions ticketone but the game isn't on their website yet as far as I can see. Does anyone know of other reputable sites to get a reasonably priced ticket from?

    If it turns out to be a nightmare I'll reluctantly go for Livorno v Samp instead. Any tips appreciated :)

    Milito is costing quite a lot.

    Also I thought Kaka had gone back on low wages.

    There is a shop right across from Santa Novella Train Station that sell the tickets for Fiorentina. Think you need to buy at least one day before matchday but you'll get your ticket face value instead of being ripped off by the websites that charge crazy money.

    Take your passport with you when purchasing the tickets also.

    Thanks Sir. Turns out Fiorentina are being cheeky and until this Tuesday coming only a package of Juve + Europa Lg game tickets is being sold. Sods!

    My friend near Pisa is going along Tues to a local ticket shop to see if any Juve tickets are left after the bundle package tickets rip off is finished. Fingers crossed...

    Roma became the first side to win their opening ten games of a SerieA season last night.

    Livorno 0 Roma 2
    Roma 3 Hellas Verona 0
    Parma 1 Roma 3
    Roma 2 Lazio 0
    Sampdoria 0 Roma 2
    Roma 5 Bologna 0
    Inter 0 Roma 3
    Roma 2 Napoli 0
    Udinese 0 Roma 1
    Roma 1 Chievo 0


    Scoring twenty four goals in the process and conceeding only one. Remarkable start to the season.

    Ten on the bounce is awesome at any stage of the season.

    Some amazing stuff from Roma so far, the mad thing is that they remain only 5 clear after that start. Very high standard this year it seems

    Big one this weekend, Juve/Roma. Like Juve but a Roma win would make for a better title race.

    Should be a great game, Juventus having the best attack so far this season and Roma with the best defence.
    Can't wait to watch it, although unfortunately I'm not a BT or Sky Sports customer.

    May I ask why AC Milan are doing so bad this season?

    I'd put it down to Allegri, don't think he is up to the job.
    That and a squad that isn't the best and also trouble at board level wouldn't help..

    Great game of ball, end to end. Juve just had too much quality in the end.
    They will miss Pirlo next season.
    The De Rossi tackle was something else too...

    Fair enough! Admittedly I do not follow Serie A too closely but upon looking at the table a couple of weeks ago I was shocked to see them below the top 10!

    The squad may not be on par with Juve, Roma or Napoli but surely merits a top 7 place at least. Can't help having Balotelli to depend on either...

    What a game this is!

    Milan 2-0 up inside 13 minutes, now 3-2 down before half time! Berardi with a hat-trick already. Every attack from either side looks like a goal in the making.

    And less than 2 minutes into the 2nd half it's 4-2 to Sassuolo!!

    And incredibly it's a 4th for Berardi!
