There is no need anymore to say how there is no crisis in Italy, how Serie A is still a competitive league and how the country with the Champions title from Germany can still measure up with the leading European leagues.
That is history and the latest Champions League events show that Italians are no longer capable of handling European strongest clubs. At this point there are no longer top five European teams with Serie A.
That is a brutal fact, Russia joined England, Spain, Germany and France as one of the major soccer leagues – Italians have nothing to do with that.
Juventus’ defeat by Bordeaux showed that the flag of Italian football has lost its power; they have lost the winning mentality and even soccer transfers and the investments in top-class players didn’t help. Calciopoli accomplished its aim: Juventus was shot down but caused collateral damage, as Italian football died.
Milan are a tired, old team that are trying to hide their own nudity with cheap entertainment and used players, while Inter speak for themselves. They keep on humiliating themselves and each European game shows how sad the best Italian club is when they leave the comfort of their homeland where they are protected as polar bears.
Rubin is the best example of the fact that Russian football is getting better; they arrive to Meazza and if they happen to fail, the lack of experience will be the only reason as they deserved to win the first leg.
The French proved to be better on Tuesday and Wednesday against pathetic Juventus and sad Milan.
Now, I know that some of you will say that German clubs are falling back. It is true, but Bundesliga is fun, while Italian football is a tranquilizer, killing you softly. The problem with the Germans is that they have positive business. Once there are regulations, the English will be saved by big business, Spain by strong economy and a possibility for the clubs to follow Barcelona’s system and also import the manpower from Argentina and Brazil.
Only Italians will sink even deeper.
Therefore, this is the end of Italian football; the stadiums are empty, except for the few thousand rebels that come to boo the players. Anyone who is worth something has already fled, so this is reality.
The problem is that everyone are pretending that nothing is happening but they can’t do that forever.
