One of my favorite games of the season takes place tomorrow: Napoli vs. Inter. And we're getting the win in Milan, too! 

Forlán vs. Cavani.



Cavani is out because of an injury he picked up during this week's win against Villareal.

What a bitch.

Two all against West Brom. Maybe not such a brilliant score on paper, but it's not that often we come back from two down.

Especially given that that stupid bastard Bramble got himself arrested again a few days back.

Thrilling night. 3-0 in Milan! I'm in heaven. This will be one of the best wins of the season. And we didn't even have Cavani!

Inter looked real old.

Great match of Suárez in the Premier.

Excited for the North London Derby tomorrow morning!

Few years ago would have been North London vs. France. Now they broke one of the last French still there (Sagna, which makes the 5th French player broken for next international matches of France team), beside Wenger, in case he finishes the year (he already has a job of commentator for a few years on TF1 anyhow, and wouldn't be surprised he succeeds to Laurent Blanc someday...).

Also English people pronounce "derby" strangely.

French as well. Pronounced kinda like 'dehr-bee'.


Italian and old is a lapalissade as we would say in French (way to say a redundancy).

Oh and, new not won match for Marseille!

Then, so far Marseille, one of the biggest French club, won against:

Evian Thonon Gaillard (1st year in L1)
Olympiakos (champion of Greece)
Borussia Dortmund (champion of Germany, 3-0)

...

And apparently Qatari millions would be profitable in Paris, won against the other big team right now, Lyon, yesterday, and they seem to be in a quite positive dynamic so far, and if I believe commentators, they don't only goal, they play well (life is unfair...).

And Qataris try to get Beckham!

A fashion victim in Paris, normal.

I would like to see faces of Parisian supporters with all those sudden Christmases suddenly happening to them, they were used to good old boring matches so far, with arrogant bad players, was kinda their way since the the late 90snow they have humble very expensive good players like Pastore...

How is Lugano playing in the PSG? He was a hero in both Sao Paulo and Fenerbahçe. And the captain of Uruguayan national team.

When he received the award to Uruguay for Fair Play in the Copa America another player joked that it was like Osama Bin Laden winning the Nobel Prize of Peace.

Well, I didn't see PSG matches, but so far he didn't play a lot, only 2 or 3 matches iirc, but if I believe commentators he is rather discrete so far.

Now for some laughs - the "Philadelphia" Union earned a playoff spot in the joke league (MLS) with a record of eleven wins, seven losses and fifteen draws. Wow. And people seriously follow this nonsense?

http://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/dcunited/union-clinch-playoff-spot-with-1-1-tie-against-toronto-fc/2011/10/15/gIQA6Fe1mL_story.html



In real news, Napoli sadly lost a game at home that they should have won (especially after they scored a late equalizer) but the big game is Tuesday against Bayern Munich in Champions League play. If we find a way to win that one, it will be huge. Smiley

Well, at least the MLS isn't full of cheaters and match-fixing.

I really don't see how a soccer fan can oppose the MLS. The level of play is not comparable to the big five European leagues, but that's true of most countries' leagues. And the MLS is only helping soccer become more popular and more well supported in the United States, something which all American soccer fans should be supportive of. Also the games and atmosphere are pretty fun.

No but you can keep telling yourself that.

I'll concede that but I'm looking for skill over fun atmosphere.

Tonight's the night. If we somehow manage to win this game (which I guess isn't that unlikely), Naples will explode with joy. Wish I could see it.

Do you need a live stream or do you have no time to watch it ?

I could provide a live stream.

I meant to say that I wish I could see it in person. I have a live stream but sometimes it fails so feel free to provide another (even if it's in the bad language).  Wink

That was a dumb penalty to give but also one of the worst penalty kicks ever taken, so I guess it balances out.
