We are not getting that title.. 5 games in 1W 3D 1L.. unless Zebre freaks and drops ball, title is out of question.. best I can hope for is Italian Cup now..

[FlexBrendt]

Season 3 Update : Completed

As expected, Serie A is a trial and we got relegated as all three guys suffered long injuries and could not even play 65 games together... (They were expected to play 114 games together)

Domestic Cup :

Spoiler

We lost to Parma in fourth qualifying round, crashing out of Italian Cup without making impact.

League :

Spoiler

Absolutely nothing in the league as we can only get 6 wins.

But we did score 50 goals, none of the strikers played as much so did not give any points..

Stats for those three :

 

Injuries.. and increase in difficulty is in full effect here as these three guys scored jaw dropping  21 goals.

Yeah they dropped ball early in the season.. And I was surprised to see Inter complete domestic double.
