With a new year upon us, the January transfer window will be opening up soon. While normally we don’t see super-stars switch allegiances in this period, but 2011 could be different. The names of Klose, Toni, Gilardino, and Kaka have been circulating, but can we really expect these players to move in January? Starting at […]

2010 was a bad year for Italian football. I tried to think of the positives, but very few came to mind.
