He’s getting murdered left and right by media and fans alike here in the United States while all the talk in Italy is that he should be back playing his club ball in the country he’s representing, but Giuseppe Rossi could very well be on his way to Juventus after confirmation from Sporting Director Alessio Secco that the club might be willing to match Villareal’s asking price.

Keep it up Rossi, Italy was by far the best choice!!!!!!!
probably the most innadvertently controversial figure in footie. and they say football isnt jingositic war games, brings an interesting question about how italian or american he is, marcos senna plays for spain if they put brazil out is he more of a traitor?? Especially if he cant get in the brazil squad, americans and spainards (strangely) are a bit jelly of this boys talent, he should want to play for the more prestigious of the two nations he represents, if he wasnt as good I guess he would have to MNT…sad innit?
he can stuff a cannoli down his throat since we all know thats what he really likes
cannoli or something else…
