Serie A Weekend Round-up: Giornata 17

… Bottinelli may have to end his Serie A adventure early. According to reports, Bottinelli’s girlfriend has a son from a previous marriage, and the father of the child says it is against the custody agreement for his son to be living so far away on another continent. Bottinelli doesn’t want to stay alone in Italy and may be forced to go back to Argentina on loan for the rest of the season to settle this whole problem. We’ll see in January I guess.

Great Italian Players: Giuseppe Signori

… and Italy lost the game 1-0. Right before Italy’s 2nd game against Norway, Beppe’s girl friend
(and later wife) Viviana told him that she was pregnant. That game was one of the best in Beppe’s career. He played with an amazing enthusiasm. Italy had a rough start though. After 21 minutes of the game Italy’s keeper Gianluca Pagliuca (later teammate with Beppe in Bologna) was sent off. Sacchi then chose to take superstar Roberto Baggio off the field and replace him …

Farewell Bobo Vieri?

… Vieri speaks fluent English, he frequently takes trips to the USA and owns a house in Miami, his girlfriend Melissa Satta is Italian-American, he would be an automatic starter on most MLS teams and is probably better than every other striker in the league bar a select few who have more experience in MLS (JP Angel, Twellman, etc.). I seriously think this would be the best option for Christian Vieri, and a move to MLS may just be what he needs to rejuvenate his career.
