Catch Up
By: patcook |In the last week and a half Genoa were humiliated by Lille and then lost to Cagliari, before an important win against Fiorentina and a draw against Palermo.
Genoa’s season started so well and then fell apart for a bit, but i think the Fiorentina and Palermo results might be a sign the club is back on track. Read the rest of this entry »

Genoa V Udinese
By: patcook |Genoa need to win this one. They face 3 away games in a row before hosting Inter.
Genoa’s home form has been fantastic and the draw with Juventus (totally deserved btw, Juve should feel lucky to get a point ;p) shows that they can compete with anyone at home. Away however, is a different story.
Udinese are coming off a win against Milan and will be buzzing with confidence and keen to prove themselves against another of the clubs tipped to challenge for the Champions League this season.
My prediction: Genoa 3-2 Udinese

Genoa President, Enrico Preziosi, was loving every minute of it and proclaimed his side better than reigning 4 time scudetto champions and perennial Champions League underachievers, Inter; Read the rest of this entry »
Hosting Slavia
By: patcook |Genoa sit on top of the table thanks to goal difference and goals scored and Genoa play the best football on the peninsula, but Hernan Crespo has told his side to expect something completely different when they host Slavia Prague. Read the rest of this entry »
Catch Up
By: patcook |Sorry everyone about the delay in posts. I had swine flu for a few weeks and had some log in issues.
Anyway, while I was running temperatures around 40 degress, Genoa started well against Roma. A see-sawing 3-2 win courtesy of goals from Criscito, Zapater and Biava. Read the rest of this entry »
In The Beginning
By: patcook |I’m the new administrator of the Genoa blog. For this first post I’ll just write about myself a little so you guys can get to understand my perspective on the world of football. Perhaps if you know my biases you might forgive me for them if they send me on a crazy rant from time to time. Read the rest of this entry »
