Well, the whole Pandev to Real Madrid story doesn’t want to go away, with Lotito today confirming the Spaniards’ offer of Javier Saviola for the Macedonian. Just a few days ago he claimed Pandev would not be moved, but who knows what can happen when big name players and large cash offers start coming Lotito’s [...]

Lazio 1 - Inter 1

Riomanistas and conspiracy theorists can say what they like, but Lazio played to win today. The energy level and overall sharpness left a lot to be desired, but after dominating possession, hitting two crossbars, and being denied a penalty on a sketchy Chivu tackle in the box, I think it’s safe to say we could [...]

Well calcio fans, unless you’ve been living under a rock, I’m sure you’ve heard that Lazio is taking on Inter this weekend.
Let’s not beat around the bush here. We’re in a lose-lose situation. Win the game, and hand Rioma a scudetto lifeline. Lose the game, and some will likely claim we threw it. I’ve [...]

Despite the fact that there are 8 games left in this season, there was a decent amount of market talk this week in Lazio land.
Here’s a brief recap (and some thoughts):
1) According to Lotito and their respective agents, both Radu and Bianchi are going to have their loan deals made permanent.

Like many other Lazio fans, this Saturday’s tussle with league leaders Inter Buenos Aires brings me back to the last game of the 2002 season, when Inter and Juve went down to the wire for the championship.
For those unfamiliar with what happened, it can be summed up with the image it’s most remembered [...]

I managed to stumble onto a clip from the 2005-2006 primavera season highlighting the progress of four players. Among them is Lorenzo De Silvestri, who as we know, has pretty much taken over that right-back position on the first team. Hopefully, the others mentioned in the clip can follow his lead up to the senior [...]

Six Lazio players have been called up to their respective national teams this week, and potentially, all of them will miss out on Saturday’s meeting with battered and bruised South American giants Inter Milan. What this means is that despite our relative good form in the last four or five matches, there’s a chance we’ll [...]

Playing Fiorentina on the road was never going to be an easy prospect. Playing them on the road with ten men for nearly 55 minutes, damn near impossible.
Still, the boys put in a decent performance, and you can even argue that they might have deserved a point, at least.
In any case, here’s the [...]

L’unica squadra di Roma, Lazio, are heading to Florence today, hoping they can extend the renaissance that’s taken hold over the last month. Confidence and energy levels are high, which is a good thing, since playing the Viola at home is going to be tough.
The Biancoceleste have had some luck there lately, winning four [...]

How I rated it all:
LAZIO (L’unica squadra di Roma):
BALLOTTA (6) – Hard to give Nonno Ballota a higher rating considering how little he had to do (Isn’t Rioma supposed to be some sort of offensive football team? Could have fooled me). Solid game anyway for our veteran keeper.
DE SILVESTRI (6,5) – Was substituted [...]
