    Another goal before time would be nice. Don't care who scores it.

    Juventus set up perfectly. Basically encouraging Napoli to cross it once they are in the final third and dealing with it every time.

    Poor from Naples tonight.

    Hopefully Inter can pump Juve next week.

    Great result for Juventus, immense defensive performance. The stuff of champions from them.

    As much as I want it, I can't see Napoli winning the league. Other than away at Roma, they haven't been good enough in the big games this season.

    Two defeats against Man City, home draw against Inter and lost at home tonight against Juve.

    Hamsik has to get his finger out. Been nowhere near his best this season.

    Completely forgot this was on tonight. Thought it was tomorrow.

    Napoli just don't have the mentality Juventus have.

    Samp v Lazio tonight. Again, another game with potential. Samp have won 7 out of 7 at home this season, while Lazio have won 9 games out of 13 in total.

    By the way, for those interested, The Totally Football Show podcast are starting up a new weekly Serie A podcast early next year. There hasn't been anymore info but it'll be James Richardson hosting it, I assume.

    Wow!

    Benevento, who had 0 points from 14 games, just drew 2-2 with AC Milan...thanks to a 95 minute header from their 'keeper!

    Unreal man.

    Inter look like the best equipped team to challenge Juve this time around, for all Napoli's nice football you feel as tho they'll lack something to get the distance but this Inter side are a very good all round team.

    Agreed.

    Inter are a bit more robust.
