Well, things will look up for Bari in coming weeks. I hope.

According to mediaset and tuttomercatoweb, Burdisso has signed for Roma. This in turn frees up U21 CB Andreolli, who will be going to Bari (not sure if it's a loan or a sale). That's a good signing for Bari - and Andreolli will pair up with his U21 teammate Andrea Ranocchia (Fishdoll suggests he's one of the Bari boys to keep an eye on today).

The last time Inter drew their first game of the season and we won it, they finished first and we finished fifth

It's oveeeeerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! MERDA BARI 1-1

An enjoyable start to the season.

Forza Paloschi! Come back to Milan and be the new Pippo =P

Make that 2 for Albertino. This time a header.

Genoa pull it level again, Zapater with the goal

Make that 2 for Albertino. This time a header.

yeah! good for paloschi.

watched 2nd half of juve game, chievo outplayed them and deserved at leasta draw

Good old Juve. now they have Canna back, they remind me of the Calciopoli Juve side more than ever...

Atleast they didn't buy any penalties and took the ref's cards away like Inter did

Awesome to see paloschi rising up. We def could use him as borri is terrible! I hope we buy him back next year and sell borriello.

Also palo's very confident as someone has mentioned earlier. His game has picked up ever since spending that time in Serie B. He'll light it up this season He's one of my favorite players, I really do hope he comes back. Pato and him will be a nightmare for players and they will grow together to form a super combo. There the same age too, which is even better

Co-own.

Damn - I belive I was pissed about this...
And now I am again - Great!

Aren't co-ownerships wonderful. You have a promising player, practically give half of him away, he flourishes, then we spend alot to get him back. They're literally throwing money away, it's getting beyond ridiculous all this co-ownership crap.

Oh and then they turn out to be Boriello

Jose Mourinho Under Fire From Islamic Leader Over Ramadan Criticisms

Jose Mourinho has come under fire once again after the head of the Union for the Communities and Organisations of Islam in Italy (UCOII), Mohamed Nour Dachan, slammed the Inter coach for his recent comments relating to Sulley Muntari and Ramadan.

The 'Special One' replaced the Ghana midfielder after 30 minutes following a poor showing on the pitch. Mourinho claimed Ramadan was having a negative influence on Muntari who practices Islam.

"Muntari had some problems related to Ramadan - perhaps with this heat it's not good for him to be doing this [fasting]," Mourinho told reporters after the game.

"Ramadan has not arrived at the ideal moment for a player to play a football match."

The comments have shocked the Islam world and have caused a considerable storm of criticism as the Portuguese coach finds himself caught up in another row.

"I think Mourinho should talk less," Dachan told La Repubblica.

"A player who practices Islam does not perform less on the pitch. We know that medicine in Sport and mental stability, and psychology make players perform well.

"A player who is Christian, Hebrew or Muslim will have a tranquil mind and will always perform better on the pitch."

Muslims fast between daylight hours during Ramadan, abstaining from food and drink from dawn until dusk.

This means Muntari would have had to play games in searing temperatures without adequate hydration. Experts claim sportsmen and women can suffer if they do not receive good hydration during hard physical exertion.

Goal.com caught up with leading personal trainer and nutritionist Giulio Scala who has worked alongside many professional sportsmen and women as well as elite athletes.

Scala claims fasting can have a big impact on the performance of players when on the pitch.

"A one per cent decrease in hydration can affect endurance by up to 20 per cent," Scala told Goal.com.

"Players performances will decrease due to dehydration as will aerobic capacity, strength and power.

"It would be worse during evening matches as the player would have gone up to 12 or more hours without any food. That means a decrease in energy and depleted glycogen levels.

"A player's capacity physically and mentally for him to work at his optimum for 90 minutes would be highly affected due to inadequate nutrition."

Oh my thank God there is only one!

mourinho is the best

He is the best wanker.
