@gray: You probably have a point, but DP was one-on-one with the goalkeeper, and although it was a difficult angle, I for one, knew that Ale would go for it, and strikers do that sometimes.

We play on Saturdays when we have a CL match on the coming Tuesday. If the CL match is on Wednesday then we usually play on Sunday.

At least one person agrees with me. You guys don't seem to notice how hard DP worked, and at the beginning of the second half when we were looking to contain Modena a bit, he held the ball up well and didn't give it away. In the first half he wasn't that good, apart from the dribbling, but his...

As far as the overall performance goes, we were average in the second half and disappointing in the first. Luckily for us Tacchinardi had his thinking cap on, and Nedved his shooting boots.

Maybe I exagerrated a bit, but DP was better than you make him out to be. His glancing header was nice, as was the way he got passed that defender before his left-footed drive was saved. At the dawn of the second half Alex kept possession of the football well with some nice passing and even gave...

Does anyone agree with me that Del Piero was very good, or am I an idiot that shares this opinion with only himself? @Iceblu: indeed, Trez seems to have reached top form :thumb:

my thoughts on the game and the players: Buffon - didn't have much to do. Birindelli - kept possession well and put in some good crosses. Legrottaglie - pretty solid. made some nice interceptions and headers. again proved that he's a good passer of the ball. Montero - both he and...

@Plexus: Del Piero was only OK? How can you say that? Did you not see how easily he got by those defenders? and how about his through ball for Camoranesi? Surely you saw how DP dropped deeper and took control of the game's tempo in the second half? and you noticed that he hardly gave away a ball...

Thank the Lord, DP has regained his excellent form already :) Alex really did prove to be a handful for the Modena defence as his dribbling was nothing short of world-class. The sight of our captain gliding away from his markers was just what my sore eyes needed.

Very opportunistic by Juve. I think it was Del Piero that took the free kick quickly and Zambrotta squared for Trezeguet to tap in. Unfortunately I got the times messed up and tuned on my TV 40 mins into the match so I dunno how we've been playing :wallbang: How has Dp been?

Lippi has been working with Maresca and trying him out on the left, and he hasn't been bad. When he came on against Brescia I think it was, he played on the left.

Why not let Maresca play this match, and Conte the Siena one? :undecide:

Can somebody please tell me why Antonio Conte is in the starting line-up? Why is Lippi wasting Maresca's talent like this?

The probable line-up: 1 Buffon 15 Birindelli 2 Ferrara 13 Iuliano 19 Zambrotta 16 Camoranesi 3 Tacchinardi 14 Maresca 11 Nedved 10 Del Piero 17 Trezeguet

Darn it, I wanted to see DP and DV in the same line-up :down:

Any predictions guys? I'm thinking along the lines of a hard fought 2-1 victory, if we're lucky it'll be 2-0.

I'm excited as well.

Sweet! Camo, Enzo, Neddy, DP and DV are all in the line-up and ESPN is for once showing the early Saturday game! :cool:

Typical Totti :totti:
