Gentlemen. It returns today.

I fully expect Chelsea to dominate. Bayern to win but narrowly. Maybe 2-1.

Ibra almost with the winner. Meanwhile, Shakhtar get the draw at "home."

What could take people's attention away from the Sacchi drama? Some Capello comments on the matter and more! - http://m.goal.com/s/en/news/9049022?ICID=HP

Huge Europa League matches today especially with Italian vs. British matchups. Remember: Serie A is the only league with all of their eligible sides (six) still in European competition. We usually don't take EL very seriously (it isn't the 90s anymore) but this year should - and must - be different.

Napoli romped to victory in Turkey, 4-0. Cheesy

Overall, a positive day for Italian teams but Torino and especially Roma were a little disappointing. Speaking of Roma, Feyenoord fans caused chaos in many of the tourist areas of the city before the game: 28 arrested and vandalism near the Spanish Steps.

Yes, yes, the Barça loss is excellent.

Sadly, the Genoa Derby was called off due to torrential downpours and a total mess of a pitch.

Phil, can you explain the deal with Parma?

Earlier today, it looked like the club had dissolved and was set to be automatically relegated at the end of the season (which was going to happen anyway this season) with each of their remaining matches being a 0-3 forfeit. However, it turns out that was a false rumor. It's really only a matter of time though.

They actually qualified for a Europa League spot at the end of last season but we're stripped of it because of financial irregularities. That's when all of this heated up. No one at the club has been paid since July 2014! Their match for this weekend has been postponed because they can't afford to operate the stadium. Their youth side was only able to practice today because the gardeners helped out in some way (don't have details). Their facilities don't have electricity so the players have been taking cold showers and keep getting sick. It's truly shocking (and no one make an Italy joke).

It's sad because Parma is a historic club.

Oh, how I'd love for that double miss by Messi to cost Barça a spot in the Quarter finals. Obviously unlikely but just imagine if City get a 2-0 win in the return...

I expect a real goal fest in the Dortmund-Juve return. Should be a treat.

It's almost too hard to laugh at that Arsenal result.

What a day for Serie A! All five Europa League Serie A sides advance. And the Prem fails in spectacular fashion (again). Let's take a look at the coefficient rankings now for this season...

1) Spain 14.642
2) Italy 13.833
3) Germany 13.571
4) England 12.857
5) France 10.250


Grande L'Italia!
