Inter plan Fabregas raid

Physical aspect of the game i would assume he gets bullied by teams like Bolton and he would have to face that week in week out..

so u think serie A is more physical than the EPL?

Fabregas being bullied in the EPL is a load of crap! i hardly see him concede possession as a result of someone kicking/pushing him.

Serie A is a very physical leauge, more than EPL. Maybe, Cesc getting bullied isnt a joke, they stop him from playing his game simple as.

Target man, serie A is not as physical as the EPL: fouls that are given there are hardly blown for in the EPL. You don't have to be athletic to succeed there, it's not like the EPL where most of the successful players are athletes. It's a more tactical based league, much slower and less physical than the EPL.

Would depend on your opinion, both are physical leauges.

Depends on how you define physical... if you are talking athletic and fast, then EPL is more physical.

Serie A is more physical in the sense that you will get fouled a bit more, and less space to play your game. The defending will be more in your face, and when you are playing a smaller team, in much larger numbers.

surely u don't consider all those cheap free kicks someone like Totti gets as fouls, do u?

As i said earlier, fouls that are given there are hardly blown for in the EPL.

Legally, EPL is more physical but players get kicked about more off the ball in Italy.

That's why Henry threw his toys out of the pram after CL final - a Serie A player would have thought nothing of what Marquez and Puyol did, its part of the game.

Also - for all the dodgy FK's that Totti wins u have to look at how many times he takes punishment without the ref seeing from arseholes like Couto.

Interestingly, now there is a Milan derby over Ronaldinho, with both clubs ready to buy out his contract at £84M!! This is like 2 kids fighting over a lollipop! From channel4:

These claims were given credence by Rossoneri President Silvio Berlusconi. “If Ronaldinho leaves Barcelona, then we are taking him. The buy-out clause in his contract is not a problem. The important thing is to snatch him away from Inter.” It’s believed that Ronaldinho’s buy-out clause for his contract that expires in 2010 is a staggering £84m.

Italian clubs have no money, eh Tweedy

I get what u mean Pierre, but those off the ball fouls are hardly as hard and painfull as some of the disgracefull fouls we see in the EPL. I think they are mostly meant to frustrate opponents( Van Bommel is a master at that, tosser!), those things have less to do with how strong u are physically.

Do u also agree cesc would never cut it in the serie A because of the physical nature of the game there?

You have no idea, pal. Totti is actually one of the most fouled players on the planet, the amount of punishment he has taken (on and off the ball), very few players can survive that. In that sense, I can almost understand why he goes down easy - the amount of times he is fouled and nothing is given must be really frustating.

Serie A defending is far more physical, and there is much lessor space to run into as compared with EPL (or La Liga).

Milan already have Kaka, so why waste so much money on dinho?

It makes more sense for Inter to buy him.

Actually, I didn't say that. But yeah, I have my doubts whether he can be as effective in Serie A as he is in EPL.

But maybe, he could be converted into a pirlo-isque player.

also what i'm thinking.

Agooner go home.

A month or so i said Serie A was more tactically minded than EPL and you said it was a "myth", for you to state "it's a tactical based leauge"

Isn't that what he is already?

Not when he plays in a 4-4-2 with Gilberto Silva...
Got to do far more, even if the deep lying playmaker aspect of the game is the same.

Still Pirlo hasn' t exactly being setting the world alight lately, and he has always had the benefit of being escorted by Gatusso and having had Kaká to read his passes.

I say go and play for a side who can win their league. Go and play for Inter as Arsenal wont get close to winning the league for at least 5 years

It makes no sense for Inter to buy him... I don't think Inter are serious anyways, I think we are just trying to increase the price for Milan

I think he would struggle because that league is mainly about experience -likewise some top Serie A players would struggle with the pace over here.

I doubt he'd want to leave Barca for a 2nd rate league anyway

Not unless you offer him £150k a week

What do you want me to reply with? you make such a daft throw-away comment based on YOUR own opinion.

You don't have a clue how Cesc thinks and just because you're harbouring a bitter and twisted hatred for Arsenal you somehow assume that everyone else on the planet does?

Inter for a start are a right wing club, from their routes at least - so if you genuinely had a soul, you wouldn't play for a club that supports right wing activities (ie killing jews and enslaving blacks).

Good luck to you in your jew raping black hanging world though

What like the Ivorian Beveren players on minimum wage ?

I don't know if they are on minimum wage, to be honest I sincerely doubt it - even if they are, they are getting a hell of a lot more money than they would back in Africa and they get treated with respect as a human being which is more than can be said for many of the African players that play in Serie A, who often get treated like animals
