Viola Nation

Morituri te salutant.

Some of these guys sure would be nice to have on the current roster. Some of them, perhaps less so.

Catching up on all the Champions League results and man, how awful a team do you have to be to get worked by Como? Truly embarrassing.

It doesn't matter if your shirt is plaid or polka dot if it's got a big hole in it.

There's a lot more nuance to this decision than we're talking about. Here's a clumsy attempt to outline some of it.

If Kean's going to get his rete dell'ex, he'll have to do it from the stands. Which, given the state of this Fiorentina defense, isn't outside the realm of possibility.

There are some plot twists in here. Boy howdy are there some plot twists in here.

1 Crazy Fact About Fiorentina Being Ass After the International Break That Might Surprise You

so glad club football is back

Remember all the momentum Fiorentina built up before the break? Safe to consider it dissipated.

North Americans, we can once again post "absolute fucking disgrace" at 7 in the morning, it's good to be back

Genoa (3-4-2-1): Bijlow; Vásquez, Østigård, Otoa; Ellertson, Traoré, Frendrup, Ehizibue; El Shaarawy, Messias; Osmajić Fiorentina (4-3-3): de Gea; Valdepeñas, Ranieri, Drǎgușin, Jimenez; Fagioli, Oulaï, Ndour; Mastantuono, Beto, Gnonto

Whisper it quietly or shriek it from the rooftops but this has trap game written all over it.

Good news for everyone who likes beautiful sliding tackles, dramatic goals, and rather frightening smiles. Very excited to have Luca around for longer. www.violanation.com/fiorentina-l...

You know the drill. International break = spreadsheet time.

Really scraping for international break content here but sometimes you gotta scrape.

Ndesribable strike from Fiorentina's Ndispensable man.

Come find out if 3 weeks of international break is sending us into Viola psychosis.

Not necessarily a bad little fact but certainly a weird one.

Okay, so maybe there's an obvious entry or two in here.

Big win over small team. Very nice.

half an hour in and there are rumours a football match may be about to begin

Fiorentina (4-3-3): de Gea; Valdepeñas, Pongračić, Drǎgușin, João Mário; Brescianini, Oulaï, Ndour; Gnonto, Pellegrino, Mastantuono Pisa (3-4-2-1): Scuffet; Caracciolo, Canestrelli, Primasso; Léris, Loyola, Piccinini, Zanon; Rao, Ferrah; Pittarello

Oh hey look, it's the most obvious trap game imaginable.

Oh hey look, the Serie A season finally started today and not 3 weeks ago. Cool.

Vanoli telling the world, "I don't care what happened in the 3 months I was away. Daddy's back now. Prove to me that you deserve my love." Will not be answering further questions at this time.

Turning on the broadcast and need @rigorepod.bsky.social to tell us where Marco's sitting in the Penzo.

Venezia (3-5-2): Stanković; Haps, Moreno, Schiengtienne; Sagrado, Sohm, Busio, Pérez, Hainaut; Adams, Yeboah Fiorentina (4-3-3): de Gea; Ranieri, Viery, Drǎgușin, Jimenez; Atta, Fagioli, Ndour; Njie, Beto, Mastantuono

Thank you for this perfect, and horrifying look into the nightmare start to this season. Definitely worse than I thought behind the scenes.

Institutional chaos is the status quo at the RBCVPetc these days.

Fiorentina, Venezia, Vanoli, time is a flat circle, et cetera.

Pinky promise this isn't a copy-paste from last year.

Fiorentina thought it could escape the iron fist of karma. Fiorentina was, as usual, wrong.

Yikes.

Asking, "Chat, are we cooked?" as if the smoke coming from the oven wasn't evidence enough.

Fiorentina (4-3-3): de Gea; Valdepeñas, Viery, Drǎgușin, João Mário; Brescianini, Oulaï, Fagioli; Njie, Pellegrino, Mastantuono Torino (3-5-2): Perri; Cömert, Coco, Comuzzo; Cacciamani, Fitz-Jim, Mandragora, Gineitis, Fortini; Vlašić, Adams

@violanation.bsky.social 36 degrees C in Firenze this afternoon. New Shirts 125 Euros and a big message from La Viola. Better pictures on my Camera. And no, I didn't buy a Shirt.

This almost the Spiderman pointing at Spiderman meme after the most recent mercato.

Want to hear transfer deadline day shatter the minds of three adult men?

The only analysis of Fiorentina's numbers that actually matters.

Ahead of Fiorentina vs Torino, @zachlowy.bsky.social gives us a tactical preview.

Players who aren't on rosters come 2 September are usually where they are for a reason.
