Guarin's too inconsistent imo. He can be one of the best players on the park in one game, and then in the next utter crap. I don't know if it's because of his attitude/mentality, but once he sorts that out he's gonna be a top class midfielder I think.

I'm really surprised at how well Palacio's been getting on btw. He always looked decent but he's been fair getting the goals for Inter this season.

He's apparently picked up a muscle strain, that's them down to Cassano and Rocchi now.

There goes any tiny chance that Inter had left of getting in the CL. Unless John Carew is still available........

He is and he's put out a Hargreaves style video to prove his fitness;

This Inter v Atalanta game is mental, first Rocchi finally gets his 100'th Serie A goal, Bonaventura (due for a move to a big team IMO ) draws Atalanta level then Ricky Alvarez (despite being pretty sh*t) scores twice to put Inter back in control, then German Denis scores a penalty, then puts away a couple of other chances to make it 4-3 to Atalanta.

Things are kicking off in Rome, there have been clashes between hundreds of fans, two or three stabbings and an ambulance has been attacked with stones.

This is the side of the Derby I hate, it's just an excuse for the 'fans' of both clubs to beat the cr*p out of each other and the police.

Sounds like it's two Roma fans that were stabbed.

Gonna kick off big time later.

Forza Roma!!!!

Apparently Montella is singing a new contract at Fiorentina - I thought Roma would bend over backwards to tempt him back.

Balotelli will be suspended for the next 3 matches vs Napoli, Juve and Catania. One match for accumulation of yellow cards and two matches for insulting the ref. What about Cambiasso and Schelotto??

Beautiful goal, good result.

Flamini's challenge tonight was a nasty one, deserving straight red. Saw the Palermo keeper's error too for Bologna's equaliser today, no idea what he was thinking.

Lamela's looks so much better than he did at River. I'm really hoping the rumours linking him to us are true.

Good result tonight. First half we were poor (although Handanovic did make two awesome saves), but the second half was sweeeeet. Great balls by Lamela and DDR for Destro's two goals. And Torosidis' goal was a good hit.

Can't wait for the final, just a shame it's so long off.

Looks like Javier Zanetti's torn his achilles (the tear wasn't confirmed during the game) and faces 7/8 months out. I really hope he's able to come back from this, though it'll be tough given his age and the fact he's one of those players that never seems to get injured, it'll be a difficult new experience for him.

Rumours at the beginning of the season said that this would be Zanetti's final season anyway.

Zanetti won't let anything as trivial as a torn achilles end his career. He'll out-live us all.

He'll be absolutely fine.

He's fit as a fiddle, he'll have the best rehab team and has all the time to make it work.

I read that Zanetti insists his career is not over and he'll come back stronger than ever.

Dear Bologna,

What the f*ck are you doing? Klose has scored FIVE today...

Didn't see that result coming, after the first goal they just collapsed... Apparently Klose the first player to score 5 goals in one match since Pruzzo for Roma back in 1986. You could tell he wanted to stay on and go for 6, a feat only achieved by (Lazio legend) Silvio Piola and Omar Sivori.

The last thing I want is for Klose to be in red-hot form going into the Coppa final.

Interesting stat: when Napoli beat Inter later, every home team will have won today. Can't happen too often.

That doesn't sound like a very Napoli thing to do

EDIT: I take that back, Inter are playing with Ricky Alvarez and Freddy Guarin up-front.

A Napoli home win was probably the most nailed on result of the weekend.

I know Inter need to 'rebuild' (i.e selling Coutinho and bringing in Tommaso Rocchi in the same transfer window), but they are so, so bad. And they're going nowhere with Stramaccioni.

Klose is a beast.
