Could you see big players leave the Italian league?

Seria A isn't the draw that it once was but I think that racism is more of a problem in italian football rather than the violence on the terraces.

There have been occasions where black footballers have been abused from the stands in recent seasons and I think if I was a player, I wouldn't want to play in that kinda atmosphere.

People have mentioned the financial aspect but a lot of leagues pay their top players very well. On a footballing view only, there are better places to play than Italy.

If I was a player, I wouldn't want to play in their stadiums either (apart from San Siro of course)... It's like... Pitch, various estates, McDonalds, Airport, a river and then the tribunes. How people can see a ball on the pitch is beyond me. Plus I would be pissed if I'd play in front of only 10000 supporters week in week out.

Remember Juventus when they were winning the Serie A... Half of stadium was always empty.

Are you dissing Paolo Maldini?

[AFII]

I think that some short ones will leave too.

Daniele Padelli left already
