Don't know if there's another thread about this somewhere else.
But here is my little tribute to arguably our best Captain ever.
A champion both on the field and of it.
Yesterday was the anniversary of his tragic death in 1989.

    Just a little tip for all the ones that dont remember him or werent even born when he played.

    If you choose to follow the best team in the world, please spend some time and learn about the history of the club. it will make all the fan based experiences feel even better.

    There's a bloody Curva named after him for a reason :)

    Scirea is the greatest Juventino in our illustrious history. He also was the best defender in the world at one time and the greatest leader and man to ever play the game. Rest in Peace Gaetano...words can't describe how much you mean to Juventus.

    As im aware there are many players that have never been cautioned... John Charles, Gary Lineker ,Tommy Lawton , Tom Finney, Johnny Carey , the wizard, John Sewell being 7 more off the top of my head...

    Possibbly kempes... Definately was never booked in his NT career

    Ah ok, still being in this restricted list still makes him a legend. I think with all the new rules and stuff, it's quite difficult nowadays not to receive a yellow card.
