Best trash moments in Serie A in 2016
Things we hope to not see again
December 30th, 2016
Oh, Italians, people of poets, artists and heroes, but also Christmas’ movie enthusiasts, with a senseless passion for trash. From television to fashion, stepping by every aspect of our lives, trash doesn't spare even the national-popular sport: football. From Armando Izzo, Cacciatore and others’ karaokes, to Bobo Vieri’s videos, stepping by crazy tattoos like Perotti’s and parodist love scenes like Immobile and his wife’s. So, we thought to farewell the year with the 10 trashiest things we’ve seen in 2016.
Insigne’s hairstyle
And not only his. Also Federico Bernardeschi started the season with an exuberant hairstyle. The both misunderstood last summer’s platinum blond hairstyle trend, exaggerating the color.
Papu Gomez’s armbands
We’ve talked about that, but they deserve a spot in this chart. The best armband in the league, from a certain point of view, designed by his wife. Or the worst armbands, from other points of view. To be honest, this year Papu had an unprecedented social explosion, which deserves to be analyzed in every single aspect.
Cacciatore’s celebrations
Right now, it’s a certainty. When Cacciatore scores, he celebrates in an ugly way.
Half-empty Olimpico during the derbies of Rome
Maybe trash is not the right word for that. Sad would sound better, but to see the Olimpico like this is one of our league’s tortures that should be fixed as soon as possible.
Buffon’s mustache
An unnecessary stylistic innovation for Gigi.
Roma and Inter’s third kits
They’ve been defined in thousands ways and maybe the best one is the reference to two sodas’ brands: Sprite and Fanta. Nike’s third kits for Roma and Inter never won over supporters’ hearts.
Crotone’s stadium
The charm of the suburbs, from an older football, it’s not enough for Ezio Scida Stadium to avoid the Trashiest Stadium award. However, we’re talking about one of those times when trash almost becomes good.
Russo’s hair
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Udinese’s kit clash
We’ve also extensively talked about kit clashes, but this is a step further, when pure genius meets uncontrolled trash.
Icardi’s biography (And others not so unmissable. “I’m reading Agüero’s book, I’m at page 100 and he’s still 12 years old” - Marianella)
The "literary case" of the year, the only one capable to unify public opinion’s judgement. A script withdrawn and modified only 24 hours after its debut, Icardi has managed the titanic challenge to piss off everyone talking about absolutely nothing.
