I was also unaware that Miccoli was being discussed as part of the Barzagli transfer. Ah, it all makes a little more sense now.

I don't think the Toni sale has anything to do with it but I do think the last game between Fiorentina and Palermo (when the Viola scored with a Palermo player on the ground) will have played a part. Also, Fiorentina are a direct rival in the UEFA Cup this year. Finally, I don't think Zampa and Della Valle are the greatest of pals...

What's the story with the Toni deal, though? I mean, I know he went from pink to purple, but I don't remember any unpleasantness at the time -- what (other massive thing) am I blocking out?

Are the two connected, then? I missed that, thanks.
