@acjimbo Loving the #golazzo podcast, have the Lazio / Eriksson one downloaded for tmrw’s journey to work.. keep up the good work

Not sure why Lazio are not playing their number 10, Luis Alberto. 2nd best player in Serie A last season according to https://t.co/bHYu25xCcX. Perfect for PB. No wonder Seville are rumoured to be preparing a bid in January. #FootballINDEX

- Caicedo twisted wide after Patric burglarized Everton Luiz in the D, however there was contention on the specific stroke of half-time.

- Lazio broadened their lead with a fierce strike from Cataldi, who won back the affection for the fans after a few conflicts with a ground-to-air rocket that flew into the close best corner from 25 meters out.
Very important win today…….very impressed by Cataldi’s performance but my question is, Why is he playing in the Lucas position and not pushed more upfront where he is more effective and dangerous as we saw with the goal?

- Joaquin Correa fell off the seat and promptly went on a performance run, shooting right over the bar, however Marco Parolo put the last nail in SPAL’s pine box with another screamer from outside the penalty zone, having disregarded Everton Luiz.

- Minutes after the fact, Correa on the counter set up Immobile to compel a spare out of VMS, as did Parolo with an outstretched foot, while Lazzari let go over for SPAL.
We join in when we go to Lazio though and we try to embrace their culture and their way of doing things. We had some tourists near us when we still had Payet at the new stadium. He was on the bench and they weren’t watching the game but went down the front to film him warming up
