2nd successive away game nw for us against catania who r 15th in da table just 3 points behind us ............. lets rest all our starting 11 for da massive copa italia game i say
Catania are favourites, as our minds will be on the Inter game and I'm sure Mazzarri will rest a few players. Hopefully those coming in will have a point to prove, but it'll be tough.
Well, how's that for a bump back down to earth? 2-0 loss, and with our full team as well (ok, minus Accardi). The players better not be tired on Thursday, or Mazzarri's got a lot to answer for..
Judging by the highlights and Mazzarri's post-match interview, we were pretty awful. Mazzarri will defend his team and attack the referee just about any time, but there wasn't much he could say about yesterday's performance.. just that we didn't play well and a couple of defensive lapses let Catania score. I really don't know why he didn't rest one of Sammarco and Franceschini, though, seeing as both had poor games, and Stanke did much better once he came on.
Shame Ziegler's free-kick didn't go in, though, it was a right belter!
