Chievo signed players like Kerlon(loan), Mauro Esposito(loan), Mauro Esposito and Santiago Morero ? Is all of them going to the starting eleven and can they all together help Chievo to avoid the relegation ?

I’ve written my own team-by-team Serie A preview on my own blog http://www.ilrecalcio.blogspot.com.

Excellent comprehensive post Francesco!! Great stuff! :) I’ll be sure to link to your post, as soon as I do my own preview on mCalcio.

Just a small suggestion: use paragraphs and highlight the players’ names. Improves readability quite considerably.

Trio – the best way to get a good feel for what a “regista” is other than Francesco’s excellent example would be to think of the literal translation of the word: a “director” – Pirlo fits that bill perfectly.

I also had to turn off that preview show. At the end of the show they totally sold out to that guys bar they were filming from. I was fast forwarding slot cause my DVr got it. Didn’t catch who the owner of the bar was. You could tell he knew nothing about the serie a. He was a epl fan.

This was great Francesco Can’t wait to see what you’ve got to say about Palermo cuz I’d like to hear an outsider’s view on us.

That preview show on FSC was absolutely terrible, I only watched it to re-live some of the great goals from last year.

the preview show sucked especially if you root for any team that was not in the top 4 (even if you do root for one of them, the show sucked). great preview francesco, fox should have hired you

Thanks for the comments so far guys.

Trio, a regista is a deep lying playmaker that plays in front of the defense like Pirlo.
