Italian football is on its last legs. No fans, stadiums that are falling apart, fans that are racist or violent thugs. No star players apart from KAKA.
How is it that 10 or so yrs ago Italy had the best league in the world and now its nothing!
Where are all the new Italian stars - it's just so sad to see!

They won some meaningless World Cup something or other, but they won't be stars until they appear on Celebrity Big Brother, that's when you really made it.

The worst world cup in memory on penalties!!! Yes I'm really proud

A German team that is still very poor. Ukraine, why really hard and Australia on a last minute penalty.
As I said Italian football is third best in europe. You could even say that German football is better because of the quality of stadium and fans that actually go and watch football,not like in Italy when the stadiums are half empty.

No one has still tried to answer any of my other points.

Exactly!!! Everytime i go to a game i always look around the stadium for the whole 90 minutes, it's great fun. Sometimes i glance at the game on the pitch too if i'm bored.

So by that you don't care that the stadiums are a joke and that the stadiums are half empty.
The football is incredible boring with all the best players in England or Spain and unfortunatly I can see KAKA going as well. On top of this no quality italian players are coming through.
Italy had an easy run of gamesto get to the final and didnt really deserve to win the tournament. But this is irrelevant anyway. Serie A has a good share of the world's best teams and players. Ibrahimovic, Stankovic, Adriano, Materazzi, Gatusso, Toni, Grosso, Pirlo, Cambiasso, Kaka..

Apart from Toni they all play for 2 clubs! Not very healthy. Pirlo and Gattuso are not two of the best players in the world, they have a lot of negatives.
There's no-need to be so dramatic. There're the same stadiums that were there 10 years ago when "10 or so yrs ago Italy had the best league in the world". They were crap stadiums back then too. The clubs can't do anything about it due to politics, this is the Italian way so get over it. Italian football isn't dead, it's just sleeping until next season when everyone starts on zero points and maybe Juve, Napoli, Genoa or Bologna are back in Serie A.
You are just one big cliche and i'm blue in the face listening to the same stuff coming from you trying to tell us what we already know, as if it's exclusive.
