Cagliari – Lazio
By: cathal |So here we are. The new season is upon us and already expectations are high after a busy mercato and a telling pre-season. We begin our Serie A campaign tomorrow with a trip to the Stadia Sant’Elia to face Cagliari. The home side will be looking for an opening day victory to get their relegation [...]
Brocchi and Moti
By: salvatore |After a week and a half of talk and rumours, the Cristian Brocchi deal has finally gone through, with the midfielder arriving in Rome yesterday, and presented to the media today. Right from the top, let’s be honest, this is not a glamour pick-up. There wasn’t a crowd to meet him at the airport, and [...]
It’s Oh So Quiet
By: cathal |With only one week until the end of the transfer window, one could be forgiven for expecting a bit of hustle and bustle but a few days have passed since that final week commenced and there is not much to report.
It is the same old names that are being regurgitated by the media. It appears [...]
On the good foot.
By: salvatore |Lazio kicked off this season’s Coppa Italia campaign with a 5-1 drubbing of Benevento yesterday (a scoreline predicted by Cathal, btw). Beating a Serie C team is nothing to crow about, so we won’t celebrate too much, but there is something to be said about starting the season off on the good foot…especially since the [...]
Lazio – Benevento
By: cathal |Once again the new season is upon us and once again nobody knows quite what to expect. A fairly successful mercato has been met with a fairly unsuccessful pre-season and as Serie A looms, we face our first test in what is effectively, the third round of the Coppa Italia. The squad will be hoping [...]
August Action
By: cathal |Several Lazio players were in action last night for their nations and it was a great night for our men as none of them suffered a loss. Pandev in particular had a night to remember, bagging two goals in a 4-1 win against Luxembourg. Goran appears to be in fantastic form as the new season [...]
Lacking In Lure?
By: cathal |Lazio’s status in the transfer market is certainly murky at the moment but if you believe everything you read in the media then it seems we are in a bit of a scrap.
Genoa are the latest side to have been linked with a move for Crespo. It appears they may be in the best position [...]
Market rumblings
By: salvatore |Depending on what you read, the possible Lazio return of Crespo is either impossible, or in the process of being worked out. Reports yesterday claimed that the Biancoceleste were balking at the 33-year-old striker’s loan fee, yet today, Lotito is apparently meeting with Moratti. Clearly, we have to take things with a giant grain of [...]
Something doesn’t add up…
By: cathal |In the wake of Rocchi’s injury woe, the media have been heavily speculating as to who will replace him. Three names in particular have been mentioned, Crespo, Bogdani and Pellissier. The most significant of these is certainly Crespo. It’s not difficult to see why he is linked to the club; he’s a free agent and [...]
The official presentation
By: salvatore |The team had its official presentation on Tuesday night, and ran out with a very (almost too) comfortable 2-0 victory against the Greek side, and Sérgio Conceição-led, PAOK Salonicco.
Once again, the defensive back four of Lichsteiner, Siviglia, Rozehnal and Radu performed well enough, and when they stumbled, Carrizo was there to bail them out. [...]
