    Having read the feedback from members about all the Euro leagues being in one thread, we've decided to revert to individual threads for each league, but they won't be stickied unless very active.

    All Italian football chat here please.

    Who's everyone's Italian team? Any particular reasons?

    I look out for Fiorentina's results. Had the kit and was well into them in the 90s, had a Football Italia magazine subscription etc. I even picked up a scarf outside CP one day! Batistuta and Rui Costa the original appeal and I liked the different colour of shirt. Don't watch any serie a games nowadays but still like them to do well.

    Don't have one. Used to like Juventus because of Del Piero when I was young. Went off them for obvious reasons.

    I don't really have a Serie A team to be honest. Never watched it growing up and I rarely watch any Serie A matches these days.

    In saying that, I loved the Inter Milan team with Diego Milito, Eto'o, Lucio, Maicon etc.

    I feel like it'd be weird now just to pick a team and go "I'll like them". Mind you I do like the rise of Sassuolo. Plus they have a cool name. And a nice kit.

    Always supported Inter but liked Fiorentina & Bologna because there strips were always decent.

    Infact, all the teams seemed to have decent strips. Parma, Sampdoria, AC, Juventus, Cagliari, Genoa, Napoli & Roma.

    If forced to pick I'd take Reggina because of Nakamura.

    I could never choose between the two milan clubs when i was younger.
    Fiorentina stuck for a few years because i liked them in fifa a few years back (fifa 10 or something).

    Quite like Napoli, always play entertaining football and have had some decent teams in recent years.

    Never really had a preference otherwise.

    Inter Milan from Italy... Always preferred them over any other Italian teams... And as Sean mentioned, that Inter team is one of my faves ever.. Maicon, Zanetti, Samuel, Lucio, Cambiasso, Sneijder, Milito, Eto'o etc.

    Valencia from Spain... When they had Canizarez, Ayala, Aimar, Carew etc.

    Aye Napoli for me because of Diego and their fans are a bit nuts aswell, plus seen as second class citizens in Italy, a bit like Celtic here in this great wee country.
