^^ Yeah kinda like Dida's flare I think. Right now for the first time, I see Cech being protected by the Chelsea defence and not the symbiotic relationship that they shared earlier.
Of course the advantage is, if this carries on for some more time, he will get his mojo back. Dida never got that luxury, since Milan's defence just went on going downhill.

Now I'm completely lost. How does Inter having more Brazillians imply they're putting in more effort?

Having more
internationals!!
QUOTE
And @zd: I personally was never a huge fan of that. It was a perception anyway. Milan has always been proud to state that we have more Italians than Inter in the first squad and also more Italian internationals. Which in the end is what I think truly counts for an Italian club.
That's nothing to be proud of as Inter are not really trying to be an Italian team anyway [Internazionale].
I think we should be proud of the fact that we have more Italians than Juve right now.
PS I don't think right now we have more internationals than Inter...

Go Napoli! They have such big ambitions this team and they are not another Chelsea or Man City. They are a proper team with an exciting team that is being built over time. I love it!
Juve...
This is what they get for treating Deschamps the way they did.

The more the season progresses the more I make sure about one thing: it'll be almost impossible to catch Inter if we slip up and lose any more points. simple as that. they're REALLY strong, like it or not.

It's ridiculous this thing about players. No one can leave his mark in every big game thus no one can be labeled a flop or non-flop based on only one bad or good game... unless it's something that happens consistently.

Balotelli 'asks to leave'QUOTE
There are reports that Inter's teenage marksman Mario Balotelli is planning to hand in a transfer request.
Balotelli is one of Italy's most promising rising stars, but he has had limited action with the Nerazzurri this term.
According to Sportmediaset, the Azzurrini ace has grown tired of his peripheral role and is ready to ask Mourinho to be transfer-listed.
The 18-year-old is determined to break into Marcello Lippi's senior Italy squad and he realises that is unlikely when his involvement is limited to warming the San Siro bench.
Sportmediaset claims that Balotelli will meet with club officials next week to discuss a possible loan switch in January.
Chelsea are known to be keen on Balotelli and Serie A's giants are also likely to keep a close eye on the situation.

Tennie

Cugini is Italian for 'cousins'. It's a more polite way of referring to that black-and-blue team than I normally use. (Cugini is frequently used in the Italian media to refer to the two Milan teams).
