Samuel’s exclusion is definitely due to the ongoing effects of the injury; he would have been one of the first names on the list if he was healthy.

I can’t wait for the Catania match; the intrusion of an international weekend after only one league game has always struck me as bizarre. It’s almost like a false start.

Alessio- I think Quaresma got 77.

RQ chose 77 because 7 was taken… for this year

Most likely. That or Mourinho doesn’t favor him. I’d be inclined to say the former. Kind of like Nesta being left out.

does Samuel’s exclusion form the CL Squad indicate he is nowhere near being ready to play yet?

Lippi used to smoke a cigar on the sidelines a lot. Probably best known other smoker is Chivu, he apparently smokes a lot, never understood how clubs or professional players could allow that.

What # did Ricky get?

Inter’s Champions league roster is out. Some INTEResting names on it.

Only four forwards on it: Ibra Cruz, Balotelli, Adriano. No Crespo.

With 25 names on the list- not counting the “B” squad- you can see where all the personnel is focused. Right in the defense– sans Samual who is NOT listed. 9 defenders and 9 “midfielders” which also give up numbers to include our forward wings.

Youngsters Mei, Santon and Bolzoni are included… and in a Machiavellian sense, this is the reason they were included from the beginning. to fill out the 4+ rule or whatever it is.

here’s my attempt at creating a chant for RQ:

“RQ, WE LOVE YOU! SCORE US A GOAL OR MAYBE TWO!!!”

Wow, realy Paolo? Thats the first time ive heard of that. Well i think it sends the wrong message. How does ancelotti keep up with all that tar in his lungs. I know coaches dont run for 90 minutes in practice but man im sure his fat ass already has trouble breathing. “Ancelotti, did u eat my sandwiches”
