Twisbrogan Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 I won't be at the Bury game tomorrow (fecking wedding so will sit there with a face on all-day, checking live text on my phone) and would have been looking forward to seeing this Scapuzzi chap based on what some City fans saw in him against Wolves However, whilst I'm normally optimistic, I have the niggling doubt that - unless I'm mistaken - he still hasn't scored including in 22 appearances in Italy's third tier. Yes, yes - it was a bit harsh to take a goal v Wolves away from him and to play for AC Milan at any level you would need to be able to do more than dribbling round a few cones but I think I'd be expecting him to be very raw. As long as he doesn't hide and take to L1 with some enthusiasm then I'm sure it'll all be mutually beneficial but I'm not sure we've snared the next Toto Schillaci for a few weeks.

Trust me, if anyone speaks up at the 'Does any one here know of any lawful...' bit, I'll punch the air, grab my lad me and we'll be commandeering the wedding car to get to the ground.

They did get promotion (Portgruaro)to Serie B, so perhaps he got lots of assists and goals that were taken off him and attributed as own goals.

HarryBosch Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 Impressed with the signings. Just a word of caution about Scapuzzi. Remember the excitement of some on here about Matt Smith based on a couple of video clips? first this week we had Smith & Kuqi being too similar now Scapuzzi ripping Wolves apart live on Sky is akin to Smith banging them in against milkmen and window cleaners on YouTube Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diego_Sideburns Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 When the ball hits the goal its not Shearer or Cole ITS SCAPUZZI ! When the ball beats the goalie Not Tevez or Touré Scapuzzi! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
