Lets see what he does with the national team. I predict he will be much better than Scolari. Scolari's system was atrocious. I mean, who plays with only one forward and sticks like 6 midfielders in there while putting defenders in the opposite side of the position they play (Ferreira).

Now the question is, will Queiroz set up a national team to play similar to how Man. United plays? :shifty:

Is the 'special' one really that special?? I personally cant wait to see.. so this will be the first season of Serie A that I'll be watching completely :p

If Marcello Lippi's predictions would be correct, in around ten months we will be commenting on Inter's 4th consecutive Scudetto victory. According to the Italian national team coach the Nerazzurri are the favorites for the title ahead of the new season.

"I like Mourinho very much," he said, "for this reason I think Inter are the favorites to win the Scudetto. Mourinho is a tough guy, but when so many players speak positively about a coach, it means he has done well."

Manchester United manager Alex Ferguson won't rush to replace assistant Carlos Queiroz, who left Friday to become Portugal coach. Ferguson's former forward Brian McClair, currently the academy director, is one of the leading candidates to replace Queiroz. Laurent Blanc, another former United player, and Benfica coach Pako Ayesteran, a former No. 2 at Liverpool, have also been tipped.

Francesco Totti has not ruled out a return to the Italy squad, a year after calling time on his international career.

Totti is good friends with returning Italy boss Marcello Lippi and speculation has been rife that he would reverse his decision and link up once again with the coach who steered the Azzurri to their World Cup success two years ago.

Italian "old guard" making a come back!!

Marcello Lippi insists he will not pressure Francesco Totti and Alessandro Nesta to come out of international retirement.

Both players called time on their Italy careers last year, but speculation has been rife that with Lippi back in the hotseat Totti and Nesta would reverse their decisions and link up once again with the coach, who steered the Azzurri to their World Cup success two years ago.

Lippi said: "I often speak to Totti but I would not call anyone to ask them to come back. I respect their decision and I would never try to change somebody's mind."

He added: "They have to call me and ask to return, I would talk to them and we would take a decision.

    • New Surface Pro with Qualcomm Snapdragon X2 leaks ahead of announcement

      By dirtyvu · Posted

      I'm hoping with the Surface Pro 12, I can use either USB-C for my Xreal One Pro glasses. With my Surface Pro 11 OLED X Elite, I have to plug them into the top port. The bottom port will power it, but nothing shows on the screen. Maybe it's my setting. When I plug in the glasses, I have it output only to the glasses. So maybe I need to turn on both displays with it in the top port, then switch the glasses to the bottom port and set it to output only to the glasses. And then hopefully Windows remembers the settings for either the top port and bottom port (one of the awesome features of Windows where it remembers the exact configuration when plugging in external monitors.

      Forgive my ignorance, but the only difference I see here is that a USB-A is now a USB-C, so there are two of them. For the modern age (and I'd argue since 2020), most products would now come with USB-C as an option, if not the default. Display, charging, devices, etc on TWO connectors, sometimes all combined! So having 2 of those powerful ports is great for something this size! Meanwhile my Surface Pro (5) has a single USB-A port which I cannot even get display out to, instead relying on some Surface Connect dock which I don't have. That is a poor experience, not to mention expensive and not compatible with other devices. Thank God USB-C is mainstream!

      wow. that color finally comes to Surface Pro. was always a little jelly when a friend had the sandstone Surface Laptop. I wonder how different this dune is from the sandstone. I'll be getting the dune version. always thought black and platinum were a little boring. I'll still have access to my blue Surface Pro 11 as it'll be a hand-me-down.
    • Apple MacBook Neo is a blessing for Windows users, here's why

      By +samw61 · Posted

      Looks a very subjective aren't they!? I like its simple design. I love the way Apple designs their products with function over form, minimalization, and simplicity over cluttered complex designs. Many, not all, of their products follow this trend, and the device becomes a tool rather than dominating the space. I do not however like their OS. I have never bought a Apple product, and while I'd consider the Neo for my wife, I am hoping there are better alternatives out there when her failing MacBook Pro 2017 finally stops. Fischer-Price is famously plastic, garish, and poorly made. Basically you're describing the Window Laptops the Neo competes against! This is how product design should be, and what Apple have often followed in recent years: https://tenprinciples.design/
    • AV2, successor to popular YouTube, Netflix, Amazon codec AV1, has a hard battle ahead

      By Skyfrog · Posted

      Isn't that true for every codec? I remember having to buy a PCI MPEG-2 decoder card just so I could play DVDs on my computer back in the late 90s. AV1 support is still fairly new.
