		<description>I agree, JT, it&#039;s weird. Especially when the only answer is a club trying to do right by one of its players -- seriously, how often does that happen, particularly when a small club (always in need of money) is involved?

And yeah, the pic is hilarious. It&#039;s like they forgot they were in the middle of a pitch, or something, and got a little too personal.</description>

		<description>I don&#039;t understand Sampdoria&#039;s position on Delvecchio.  Wouldn&#039;t they want to use Delvecchio&#039;s prior relationship with the coach to drive the price above Celtic&#039;s 3 million pound offer?  They should be using Celtic&#039;s offer to wring as much as the can from Palermo.

That would seem like a basic negotiation tactic to me.

Is it that important to keep a player in country that they&#039;d cut the price for a move to a competitor who is very close to them in the table?  That doesn&#039;t seem like very intelligent business.</description>

It&#039;s in Italian, but it essentially says: Fiorentina are still leading the Semioli chase.</description>
