There were a lot of marginal decisions. Kaka may not have had the same impact as the season before this past one, but he deserves to be in the top 11. And of course Buffon over Dida(H)

Candela to join Udinese



Bolton Wanderers defender Vincent Candela has reportedly agreed a deal to join Udinese.

Candela linked up with The Trotters in January from Roma and made 12 appearances for Sam Allardyce's men.

He was offered a contract to stay at The Reebok Stadium to help the club on their European debut in next season's Uefa Cup.

But reports in Italy have announced that the 31-year-old has reached an accord to join Udinese for their UEFA Champions League challenge next term.

The former France international is understood to have accepted a 12-month deal from Udinese and has shunned the chance to stay in The Premiership.

Meanwhile, Udinese are still at loggerheads with coach Luciano Spalletti, who tendered his resignation earlier in the week.

Spalletti wants to quit the club, despite having a year remaining on his contract, but the Serie A outfit admit no deal has been struck.

Udinese general director Pietro Leonardi said: "We haven't found the agreement with Spalletti and so the contract is valid again."

The coach has been linked with the vacant position at Roma, while Udinese currently want Spalletti to pay up on the remainder of his contract.

Bonera to begin Viola revolution
Sunday 12 June, 2005
Fiorentina Coach Cesare Prandelli hopes to reunite with Daniele Bonera, Marco Marchionni and Morgan De Sanctis, while Tomas Ujfalusi considers Madrid.

Prandelli had great success at Parma before taking a year out to nurse his wife through a serious illness and the players all admit they’d appreciate the opportunity to work with him again.

Italian international Bonera has been a target for Juventus, Inter, Milan and Roma, but Fiorentina have suddenly leapt in to pole position.

It’s believed the Viola are staging a double bid for Bonera and teammate Marchionni, offering cash, Sebastian Cejas and William Viali in return. Any decision on Parma’s players must wait until after the relegation play-off with Bologna decides the club’s future.

A new defender would be required as Fiorentina are in negotiations with Real Madrid to sell Tomas Ujfalusi. The Czech international is said to be the subject of a £7m bid from the Bernabeu outfit, an offer Prandelli is unlikely to reject.

Another issue that Fiorentina must work on is that of their goalkeeper. Both Cejas and Cristiano Lupatelli disappointed this season with some costly errors and Morgan De Sanctis reveals he has been approached.

“It is a delicate situation,” commented the Udinese shot-stopper. “President Giampaolo Pozzo has suggested he wouldn’t be happy at one of his players moving to a club that finished below Udinese this season. I must nonetheless admit that Fiorentina is an enticing prospect, though I see no reason to leave the Stadio Friuli.”


Viola are the perfect team for Bonera. :sb9:

mark, just admit youre devastated.

Marchionni is a great player and is just what Fiorentina needs (Y)

I dont think Real Madrid would pay $7M for Ujfalusi

What the hell do so many people see in Bonera? The only potential I see in him is how he's gonna suck even more in years to come.

A lot of Betting Companies skip most of the Serie A games in the last few rounds
And the one who dont skip the matches, draw odd with 1.30 which is incredible
And the final results of those games?
The game draw beautifully, not 0-0 ,but 3-3 instead

Oddo prefers Milan switch
Monday 13 June, 2005
Lazio full-back Massimo Oddo says he would rather join Milan than title rivals Inter or Juventus.

The defender is expected to be sold this summer and he’s happy that the Rossoneri seem to be in pole position for his signature.

"I would pick Milan given the option," said the Italian international. "I grew up there as a youngster and everyone knows it.

"I’ve read about their interest in me and that is reward for all of the good work that I have done in these years."

However, Oddo is by no means certain that a San Siro switch beckons for him in the near future.

"I still don’t know what will happen," stated the former Verona ace. "I have a contract with Lazio and it depends on the club’s plans.

"I would firstly like to be told of Lazio’s ambitions before I make a decision on whether to stay or go."

Meanwhile, Giuliano Giannichedda has waved goodbye to Lazio after he joined Juventus on a free transfer.

"I would like to say goodbye to everyone," said the midfielder. "I have spent four marvellous years in Rome.

"They were tough but very satisfying at the same time and they’ll always remain in my heart.

"I want to say thank you to my teammates in particular, with whom I shared the honour and privilege of wearing the Biancoceleste shirt."
