Pre-CL Qualifier Newsie Bits

Really, really not much going on today -- everyone is resting in anticipation of some Slavia Prague action.

•Bad, bad news: Due to the knock he picked up last week, Gamberini only worked with the team for the second half of training today; he spend the first part of the session working by himself. Cesare basically said "We'll see how he is" when

Argh, they're not airing the game for me.

Never mind, it's on at 22:45! Is it an away game?

[bustedflush]

Woo hoo! I'm so jealous these things are on your TV, even if the announcers do obsess over Juve. (It's in Florence this time around, Prague next week.)

Oh, no, it's on another channel. I might get yet another Juve one, though, but I love him to bits (he's the one who flirts with Rui every other minute.) Ah, good, I would have feared an away game.

Christ almighty, you and me both. If there's no Gambit, Melo and Donadel better both start and spend the whole match kicking people, so they get nowhere near the goal box.

OH NO! NO GAMBIT?! I'm worried!

But if Cesare is happy with the team and not worried then we should trust that, shouldn't we?

ME TOO! I have everything crossed he'll be ok to play.

Definitely we should! Especially since he was so unhappy with them after the friendly where Gila was going offside too much and no one was trying -- they must have been better recently for him to say nice things.

Ak, sorry, I missed this when it was relevant. (Krol and Dainelli weren't awful, right? And Dainelli seems so used to fucking up that he's there to cover himself more often than not, which is an interesting approach.)
