Paparesta: Punished Because I Did Not Help Juventus
The referee spoke to the prosecuting attorneys on the 7th of June and revealed how he was suspended for a whole month following a Coppa Italia final match which hindered the Bianconeri.
In the Calciopoli investigations, referee Gianluca Paparesta told the prosecuting attorneys Filippo Beatrice and Giuseppe Narducci about when he was suspended for a whole month by Bergamo, just because he did not favour Juventus in the second leg final of the Coppa Italia final which ended in a 2-2 result and helped Lazio win the trophy.
"I was convinced, and still am, that the reasons for my forced period of inactivity are due to the fact that I did not guarantee favours to Juve in that match and, on the contrary according to others, I damaged them."
Paparesta also went to explain why his father, former referee Romeo Paparesta, received mobile phones and SIM cards. According to the Italian international referee, Luciano Moggi wanted a help to have duties in the designation sector.

So Inter got Jimenez too. Winger/Foward who played for Lazio last season.
Fiorentina » Semioli from Chievo and now seems to go for... Vieri!

All Inter r missing is a fullback .. Other than that, they have a super first XI along with a quality bench.
They will definitely win something (coppa

Oh and, lets not forget, Juve is back, so Inter go back to challenging for 3rd place now

Adriano: My alcohol nightmare
Adriano has revealed the reason for his excessive partying and how Massimo Moratti helped him out of this nightmare. “I will repay Inter.â€
Once considered potentially the greatest striker in the world, the last two years have seen L’Imperatore spend more time making headlines in the gossip columns than the sport section.
“I miss my father so much. He died in the summer of 2004, but it seemed as if my mind only registered his absence some time later,†he explained to the ‘Gazzetta dello Sport.’
“I hadn’t seen him die, so when I returned to Italy to play, it felt like in a certain sense he was still here with us. I started suffering when I went to Brazil for my holidays. He wasn’t there and I so wanted to be with him.â€
That was the start of a spiral that took Adriano further and further away from a stable home life, something he in fact craved.
“I argued with my girlfriend Daniela, who was expecting my son, and started to go to nightclubs and bars. Above all I tried to wash away all my problems with alcohol.
“I drank a lot and couldn’t help go out at night. I had to, otherwise I couldn’t sleep at all. It became impossible for me to stay at home. I felt so alone.â€
The Brazilian fell badly out of form, gained weight and was excluded from the Nerazzurri side after a row with Coach Roberto Mancini.
He seemed set to leave Inter for Real Madrid, but President Moratti never lost faith in his favourite hitman.
“I looked into my son’s eyes on his birthday and all the clouds disappeared. I realised we had to get back together and be a family again. Today I have rediscovered my family, my girlfriend and my responsibilities,†continued Adriano.
“This is what gives me the certainty I can give back to Moratti everything I took away from him in this period. I must thank him for the patience he had with me.
“It is wonderful to know that, especially in the most difficult moments, your President still counts on you. He was at times tough with me, but never let me feel alone. I will repay him, not just with goals, but with effort, hard work and sweat.â€

Agreed, even if it is an Inter player.
Inter have a real wonderkid on their youth system - Mario Balotelli Barwuah. He's almost 17 but looks 24 or so.
He played yesterday in their pre-season with the first team and scored. It's their best kid out there. Ribas, Maaroufi, Fautario, Slavkovski and Andreolli are the other top young talents in Inter.

I've only seen Andreolli out of that lot. I used to think he was alright, but was nothing short of awful at this years U21s. Maybe that was a one off tournement for him.
He's back.
Damn. I still hope 1 day he plays for Milan. Maybe in 6 or 7 years a la Ronaldo.

Matrix: Emerson not welcome
Tuesday 24 July, 2007 ::: channel4.com
Marco Materazzi says that he does not want Emerson to join Inter after the Brazilian’s statements dating to last year.
El Puma is a reported target for the Nerazzurri with both fellow countryman Adriano and Coach Roberto Mancini stating their admiration for the midfielder.
“I don’t want him here, last year he insulted Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Patrick Vieira because they had chosen Inter and now he wants to do the same,†Materazzi told La Gazzetta dello Sport.
“I don’t like this attitude, I would prefer it if he returned to Juventus,†added the world champion.
Emerson had criticised his former teammates, as he believed their move to Inter represented a betrayal, and had stated that he could "never do such a thing to Juve.â€
However, Materazzi is ready to greet Cristian Chivu, who he hopes will soon join the Italian champions, and is pleased with President Massimo Moratti’s new signings so far.
“I am happy for David Suazo’s arrival, we needed a man just like him upfront. Luis Jimenez? He is the new Stankovic,†he concluded.

Adriano calls for Emerson
Tuesday 24 July, 2007 ::: channel4.com
Inter striker Adriano has declared that he would be glad to welcome fellow Brazilian Emerson to the San Siro.
The Real Madrid midfielder has been heavily paired with a move to Milan over the past few months, but has recently become a target for Nerazzurri Coach Roberto Mancini as well.
“I hope he comes here, as well as Cristian Chivu, they are two great players,†Adriano told Sky Italia.
“I really hope Emerson joins the team. This decision is obviously up to Mancini and President Massimo Moratti, but it would be a pleasure for us to have him here,†added the Emperor.
Adriano hopes to make up for his disappointing form last season, when he mainly hit the headlines for his behaviour off the pitch, and is confident that he will prove his true value.
“I must work hard and have a healthier life style. The past year and a half was very difficult for me, but now it’s over. I am happy,†he explained.
“I want to win back the heart of our supporters. I promise I will live a normal life and will train well, I must work hard during the week.
“Mancini has always told me that if I train well, I can play a good match on the Sunday,†concluded Adriano.

apparently chivu will be an inter player tonight or tomorrow. we have 0 chance of winning serie a. inter were by far the best team last year and have gotten better since. we on the other hand have done nothing and will be lucky to make couple of signings and even if we get pato he isnt going to make an impact.

Even if we buy 1 of: Ronaldinho, Eto'o, Fred, Shevchenko, Drogba, Cavani, Quagliarella, Cassano... Inter will still have the best squad. By far: better, stronger, younger and with more options.
Now they sold the bluff that was Grosso and will get a world-class LB/CB like Chivu.
Suazo will add pace to their attack, so as Jimenez. Not even talk about depth in Inter squad...
Probably they'll get 1 or 2 more until the market close.
PS: Pato is going to be 18 in September. He isn't an option for the first 11. Quite obvious. Nor in Milan, nor Madrid, nor Inter.

CL is 12 matches for a big team. A league is about 40. And the CL is not every week...
That means what? We've a first 11 as good as Inter or any other team in the world. The problem is that we've 14-15 good players. Inter have 22 or 23. That's the difference: depth.
I know Inter is not the usual example... they're the team with more options for each place, in Europe. Probably only Chelsea, Madrid and Liverpool have a good number of players for each place that can be compared to Inter.
Milan, ManUtd, Barcelona, Valencia have great 11's. As great as or even beter than the ones above but if they've "a Kaka'", "a Ronaldinho", "a C.Ronaldo", "a David Villa" injuried... they've no options in the bench for that level.
In the other hand, if Chelsea has Lampard injuried they've Ballack. If Madrid have Raúl with a problem, Saviola gets in. Liverpool with Gerrard out? Alonso, Mascherano, Lucas Leiva [amazing young talent] and Sissoko are more than enough for the center-midfield. Inter have problems with Adriano? Suazo, Cruz, Crespo...
That's the difference.
If they have such a great team why did they suck in the CL, in fact they always suck in the CL - like Juve, perhaps there's a link

Ibrahimovic Calls Emerson
The Swedish forward declared that he is expecting Emerson to join Inter.
Earlier today, Inter defender Marco Materazzi told the press that he is opposed to an eventual arrival of Real Madrid’s Emerson, as the stopper has accused the Brazilian midfielder of having criticized those players who moved to Inter after Juventus were relegated to Serie B.
However, Ibrahimovic has contradicted Materazzi’s statement, claiming that he is expecting Emerson to wear the nerazzurri shirt alongside Roma’s Christian Chivu.
“I am awaiting both Emerson and Chivu to come here and I believe that Adriano will be on top form very soon,†said the Swedish forward.
At last, Ibrahimovic spoke about Inter’s upcoming season and revealed his aim to win the golden ball award.
“This year we are first in line to win the scudetto. At the same time, though, I also want to win the Champions League and the golden ball award. My contract? I am absolutely ready to pen a contract renewal. I will stay at Inter for a long time, me and Moratti already have agreed to that.â€

look i dont see where CL comes in to play because we are taking about the scudetto race. there are many great teams that dont go far in CL. werent chelsea and man u much better than liverpool yet pool made the finals and they dint. dint inter pick us to pieces last year? the fact of the matter is inter are better than us no question about it. we had easy draws early (a joke of a group, celtic and bayern were the weakest knockout opp besides PSV) compared to the rest then against man u and liverpool we stepped up but that was 3 games!! not a whole season of 38-40 games which inter prooved themselves. and i can assure you it's going to be 10X harder this year to defend our title now that everyone wants a piece of us and thats considering if we get easy draws again. what we lacked in 04/05 and 05/06 was mainly depth, we did well in the big games and always screwed up against the lesser teams and that trend will continue with this team if we dont do something. and juve have been in what 3-4 finals in the past 15 years one of which we won in a lottery shoutout? i wouldnt call that sucking because you have to be good to make it to that many finals and in the end you do need luck.

And to be honest, you can't get more 'historic' in England than Villa, we were winning FA Cups and League titles before any of the teams you mentioned even existed.
Then Nike have the likes of Barca, Inter, Juventus, PSV, Boca, Corinthians, Dortmund, PSG, Porto, Athletico and Valencia. All great clubs, mostly with great history.
