lets call it football? Italian football is good, and I'm glad juventus is back in serie A, so in the new season things will be back to normal and maybe even better than they were before the scandal, personally I follow the premiership that is by far the most exciting league an i cant wait for the new season to start

yes we can call it football..."soccer" is to avoid confusion with "american football" for our american friends!!!anyway sometimes i see some matches in premier league and i must say that they're really exciting,more than italian serie A because matches are less tactical and more "open face".but from the tecnical point of view italian teams are better than english ones IMHO

yes I agree the italian league is the best league when it comes to tactics.
over the last five years, although serie A remained strong i think the spanish league and english league seemed stronger and more competetive, I think now the scandal has passed and football violence is being addressed better we will see a re-inspired and more dominent force in italian football, and italian football is more appealing now more so than the last five years.
lets not forget an italian team won the champions league, and they deserved to win it, now the iceing is back on the serie A cake.
