Serie A, SIENA-LAZIO, Sunday, 01-11-09

Maybe I should also start fucking up at work so I get sent to some pitoresque city in Tuscany

To me it doesn't matter, who actually is in charge...if it's Mr.Ballardini or who ever, I don't care, cause all we and our Lazio needs are results, finally!
So, I think I will go and light a candle (or perhaps three)...

everything is to be expected

... looks like a prison to me, just what they needed

The most beautiful prison ever! I would do anything to be inprisoned there...

Fuck guys, I am nervous all the time these days. I feel sad and down, mixed with this strange feeling of anxiety mixed with feeling ill, wanting to throw up, constantly. All because of a poorly performing Lazio. We seriously need to start winning...NOW!

Zarate and Rocchi played many a game together last year and did exceptionally well. I don't think they have turned into bad players in the space of 3 months.

They are not bad but they dont score as much as last season because they dont get the ball so much as last season... Lazio final pass is realy rare this season

Our problem* is that our midfield has to help out a bit too much in defence, leading to a large gap between attackers and the rest of the team. Add to that a midfield without any creative players, and without a player that can deliver that so important first ball up to the attackers, and you have identified why they were doing a better job last year as compared to this year...


*We have many problems; this is one of them...

Last reports say that Balla will try tridente. Last training was harder for def. and gk. with this starting last line : lich-sivig-crib-kola.

Forza lazio

I have read that the formation would be at lalaziosiamoni.com
PROBABLE FORMATION (4-3-3): Muslera, Lichtsteiner, Siviglia, Radu, Kolarov; BROCCHI, Baroni, Mauri, Zarate, CRUZ, Rocco
who is Rocco?? is he rocchi?

FORZA LAZIO

The right formation to play considering Matuzalem's absence. Worried about that defence though; not convinced Radu - Siviglia is sensible.

When it comes to our central defence, nothing is sensible, you should know that by now with this bunch
Probable midfield lacks creativity, unless Mauri gets going, the strikers will have to feed off scraps again. We have a couple of decent finishers (well, they were at least) up there and a forward who likes to do it all himself, but a lack of supply to them. I keep hoping for Balla to find a formation to suit, maybe this will be it?
Again, hoping for much but finding it hard not to expect the worst. Somethings going to have to give eventually.
Forza Lazio, go get the 3 points...

Radu & Diakhte would be the proper way to go.

But for tomorrow im happy with Radu & Siviglia.

The line up looks good but I also agree that the midfield might miss some much needed creativity. For this reason it might be better to play someone like Foggia as trequartista - or on one of the wings, and take Cruz or Rocchi off? I'd also like to see Diakite and Radu paired together, but Siviglia is a good choice considering the team needs stability and leadership at the moment. Sebastiano can offer that in my opinion, despite what a majority of members on this forum may think of him. We also need Tommaso to step up. When he plays well, I feel the entire team does as well.

Looking forward to this one. We need a good response from Ballardini and the boys. Hopefully a good result too.

FORZA LAZIO!!!!!

This is the formation that showed up 2 hours ago.

86 Muslera; 2 Lichtsteiner, 13 Siviglia, 26 Radu, 11 Kolarov; 32 Brocchi, 33 Baronio, 5 Mauri; 10 Zarate, 74 Cruz, 17 Foggia. A disposizione: 1 Bizzarri, 25 Cribari, 87 Diakitè, 7 Eliseu, 99 Perpetuini, 9 Rocchi, 18 Makinwa.


Pretty attacking if you ask me.

GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL MAURIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

Come on boys!

another poor draw. Time for drastic measures.

I love Nando Muslera....But unfortunetly I consider the Maccarone goal a howler...

Terrible positional placement by Nando..

You could argue that the defense should have closed him down, but Nando didn't get his body behind the ball..

Terrible result..

Impeach Lotito...He is murdering our club

oh yeah, one precious point. congrats!

Under normal circumstances, a draw would be fine. These are not normal circumstances.

Not so good.

Not so good AT ALL.

The club are turning molehills into mountains. I'm trying not to...

Running out of words to use with this side.

Il try and not let my emotions get the better of me.

A draw is just not good enough.

Roll on Thursday.

Just look at the thread, fans are lost for words, no one is able to write anything.

So much firepower, and 5 goals in 9 matches.

27 points up for grabs, 5 points won.

What does it take. Zarate can break any defender one on one. Rocchi and Cruz are established goalscorers. I haven't seen the game, only some moments from the match, so I can't judge, but this is inexcusable.

----------------

If we are such draw masters then we should draw against Villareal and secure qualification in the second round. If we lose to Villareal then the season is lost in November. So so sad.

...without being sarcastic, I am waiting for Caxi's reasons to another poor result...what was wrong this time Caxi?

THIS MEANS NOTHING TO MEEEEEEEEEE OHHHHHHHHHH SIENA
