The Coppa Italia doesn't exactly bring out the crowds in Udine I see.

**Eirambler** · 05/08/2022, 6:05 PM

No run out for the two lads and Udinese made heavy weather of beating a team I've never heard of before tonight who play in a 2000 capacity stadium.

The crazy thing is that in England if you describe an opponent of a top-tier team like that, you're probably talking about an FA Cup third round fixture against a semi-pro outfit from the Isthmian League - in Italy, you're talking about the team that finished third in the third tier, the equivalent of MK Dons

Yes, they were very close to promotion to Serie B, which is why they qualified for the Italian Cup - unlike national cups in this part of the world they limit the entrants in Italy to about the 40 highest ranked teams. The nearest comparison I can think of in England would maybe be Burton when they were in the Championship a few years back.

To be fair to them they looked a well organised outfit.

On as a late sub V Milan for his Serie A debut

**Diggs246** · 13/08/2022, 10:21 PM

Fair play to him!
I didn't think he would get a look in for months. Was Robbie our last Seria A player?

Yes, under Tardelli

Ebosele and Abankwah both on bench

**JR89** · 26/08/2022, 4:35 PM

After selling their first and second choice RWBs they move their CB out to play RWB in the last game. He's sent off and suspended for this game so they move their captain and CM out to play RWB. I know it's early days but if he can't get a start against the team that finished fourth in Serie B last season and playing lads out of position he'll want to buy a comfy cushion for the bench.

They�ve 14 subs registered for the game�it will take more than a comfy cushion to make that bench comfortable�

At least it will be warm during the energy crisis.

Was hardly worth his while flying all over europe the last couple of weeks. Has all ready played at a higher level than a lot of that squad will ever play at.

**tommy_c12000** · 29/09/2022, 1:47 PM

Yea he should have gotten more game time for sure. Hopefully he won?t continue to rot away at Udinese and either breaks into their team this side of Christmas (unlikely) or secures a good serie B with James after Christmas

**tetsujin1979** · 19/10/2022, 6:16 PM

Starting tonight for Udinese in the Italian Cup
Abankwah named on the bench, the team announcement had to be put out twice, because his name was misspelled the first time!

**JR89** · 19/10/2022, 8:37 PM

Hooked at half time with Udinese trailing 1-0 at the break.

**tetsujin1979** · 18/12/2022, 8:44 PM

Ebosele played 72m against Athletic Bilbao in a friendly yesterday

**tommy_c12000** · 19/12/2022, 6:02 PM

They seem to have pretty strong sides out throughout the friendlies, a sign of a significant breakthrough or are they still missing bigger players to come back in for next league game?

**tommy_c12000** · 23/12/2022, 6:15 PM

Started 3rd game in a row today (all friendlies), vs Lecce. One more friendly left before serie A game on Jan 4, when we will get a better idea if this represents a �breakthrough��.
