Giuseppe Rossi Nutmegs Chiellini, Tweets About It

By Ollie Irish

Giorgio Chiellini has denied Giuseppe Rossi’s claims that he was nutmegged during training while on international duty last weekend.

Rossi tweeted that he’d megged Juve’s no-nonsense defender: “I’m happy for the nutmeg I made on the great Chiellini a couple of days ago… hahahaha! I told him that I wouldn’t write about it on Twitter :)”

Chiellini responded, joking to his 49,719 followers: “I can assure you that Giuseppe Rossi didn’t nutmeg me, otherwise he wouldn’t be able to walk anymore.”

Who do you believe?

    Just a thing: the translation is not accurate.

    Rossi says “I told you I was writing about it on Twitter :-)”, rather than “I told him that I wouldn’t write about it on Twitter :-)”

    I’m italian. The real translation is ““I told him that I would write about it on Twitter :-)”

    Lorenzo, ‘ti avevo detto’ is ‘I had told you’ (or I told you, also). And I reckon that ‘scrivevo’ is past simple (imperfetto), so I think the ‘would’ doesn’t fit there…
