Ok I'm going to go so far to say that today was a pretty significant day for Fiorentina. We did several things which could have a lasting impact for the rest of the season:

Firstly, we beat a very competitive, dangerous, and "complete" looking Bari team. They have a couple of very impressive individuals, and their goalkeeper was on good form today. They have shown a great deal of tactical awareness considering they went to the San Siro twice, and salvaged draws from a very confident and well resourced Inter team, and what is actually proving to be a pretty vibrant and attack-minded Milan team.

Secondly, we came from a goal behind to record what was a solid victory. I thought the guys' heads might drop after going a goal down considering we had three excellent opportunities to open the scoring, but they persevered and got their just deserves.

Finally, I think that if Montolivo can make sure to switch himself on more often and more consistently, we have a future Andrea Pirlo on our hands. His advantage? The fact that he is physically more robust, but at the same time possesses a delicate finesse and touch of the ball. He was epic against Liverpool and Lyon, and needs to find a way of being more consistent. Fantastic if he could get a solid role in the Italian midfield for the World Cup.

I think today we saw why it is important we try and actually get Miguel Veloso to our club-- I'm afraid that Donadel just isn't able to pick up the slack, and it leaves us vulnerable at times.

Hope Jovetic returns soon so that we can get our Holy Trinity going-- Mutu showed a lot of guile and dexterity in his play, which is great to see.

Andiamo Viola!
