  4. Oh god! I hope Filippo doesn't know about my Possebon love. It's the most bizarre love triangle ever.

    I think that'd make Possebon - Stefan Effenerg, Inzaghi - Thomas Strunz, and me.. er.. Mrs Strunz.

  6. But the Filippo and Rodrigo would have to be teammates - which means.....ZOMFG!
    Milan sign Rodrigo for 300m! And Man United are free of debt.

  7. If Milan signed the Possebon I may have to move to Milan.
