Russotto's creativity is something we can use right now..he was a threat as soon as he stepped on the field forcing Catania to respect his 1 on 1 skills..he MUST start! unfortunately, it will take a string of losses for Dela to realize that we need a top class stiker..by then it may be too late.

I also enjoy all the other participants' comments. Thanks guys! Neil, I note that you contrasted Genoa's win with Napoli's. You hit the nail on the head. I, too, was a little disturbed by how handily Genoa disposed of Torino. Especially as I watched Napoli's lackluster performance on Sunday. I wasn't really all that disturbed by Hamsik's missed penalty kick. That happens. I thought he looked a little tentative, anyway, as he stepped up to the spot. It was the overall appearance of the squad that was disappointing. I hope it was due to the Christmas break.

I don't like it. Better an Italian defender! Don't we have a youth set up?? We have Rinaudo, Santacroce, Cannavaro, etc…. and we play with 3 at the back. I don’t like it. Better an Italian defender!

I don't like it though. Is he better than what we have or an Italian defender? Is a defender what we need to spend our dough on? Some creativity from midfield and a first rate forward would be nice.
