No news today regarding Il Capitano. Don't you know I'm his biggest fan?? :p

But that can't be right, no one would have pics of Giovinco if that were the case. :p

He's not extremely talented, but I'm warming up to him. His goals come from a lot of workout in the gym and a very good shot. If we manage to bring down the transfer fee it'd be positive to keep him.

It's not exactly easy to grow an extra 20 cm to stop Zlatan from heading that ball. :p

Well, he has no competition really and with our injuries, I don't think that'd be the worst thing to happen.

Well, the thing, Juve payed more than 20 for the guy and at that time was apparently going to be a winning transfer. Of course the 50 million offer was bs, anyone would have sold the guy in a second, rented a private plane for him and packed all of his things so he never had to come back if...

You know, it's funny how easy you wish death on others for not agreeing with you. This is a waste of time, agreed with whoever posted that. Carry on, you Twilight like fans.

Oh come on, it's pretty obvious when you have a guaranteed spot when you look at a squad, unless there's a genius youngster or something but other than Barca or Arsenal that wasn't very likely.

Trez is a special case though, he had been trying to leave for a while, so maybe that's why they let him go. And no, I'm not retarded, neither Amauri or Iaquinta deserve a starting spot, it's just that we weren't wise enough to bring a suitable replacement last year or this year either. I...

Do you have hard facts on how much money he brings to the club? Most of the praise Del Piero has these days is more like lip service, I doubt there's any real amount of money in him being in the team anymore. It doesn't matter either way, bring a suitable replacement, and stick Del Piero in a...

Granted, but then again, it's kind of counter intuitive when a player that is doing well gets sold, so not the transfer season of 2009. This year though? Yeah, should have been sold, he proved his worth.

1. For a pretty long time. I've seen Del Piero go from a top level football player to not being an exciting player to watch anymore. 2. I'm not the one that wants to pay millions for a 37 year old player in 2011.

What, you disagree?? He's a starter now due to history, certainly not for footballing quality. It's kinda like when Baggio went on his final years in Chievo (or was it Brescia?).

And City pre Sheiks was a shitty team when compared to Juve, so not a viable option.

Well, if I'm being payed enormous wages despite my lack of quality I'd still keep on playing until I'm 40. Rejecting several offers? It's not like Juventus is a B tier team compared to Man U and Real Madrid, Juve is one of the best teams in Europe. Del Piero was going to leave if Capello...

Berlucunt was just being Berlucunt and giving himself deadlines. Again, who else guaranteed him a starting spot and big wages? Not to take away from his effort, but it was hardly a sacrifice. Hell, look at him now, he's an Empoli level player but he's still the starter in our team. I think...

Didn't you mention 20+ goals next season? I think I'll be healthy for a long, long time based on your prediction. ;)

What did he give up?? Honestly, what other team would have given him the same guarantees he got at Juve?

LOL, 20 goals, really?? He scored 11 last year, and has 5 so far in this one with a lot of playing time.

What other top tier team would have transferred him in and given him everything Juve were giving him? Please, what a HUGE sacrifice.
