    The best of the best

    I'm afraid I'll have to go with the crowd here for once, Zidane indeed was a supreme player in his time of unparallelled technique and vision. The closest anyone has come was Il Phenomenon Ronaldo in the nineties, but his following years failed to deliver the goods.

    Sottil slams ‘childish’ Ibra

    Oh my. :wink: Sottil may be the first to openly state his dislike for Ibrahimovic as a fellow professional and a person, but I'm more than sure that many more would heartily agree in a heartbeat; I daresay Cruz's agreement speaks for a good many of the Inter squad.

    Half a decade ago, this situation would have been the perfect setting for a repeat of Jerez.

    Juve target Azzurrini duo

    We've pursued Coda before, Dessena on the other hand is a new name to me. Again, as long as they have the heart to lend their services to the Juventus cause, i say bring them in.

    if the USSR and communism had not collapsed..

    I'm sure our parents and their parents were of a similar opinion...sure our world leaves alot to be desired but surely our parents lived in a world safer than their parents, and ours safer than theirs. That really is beyond debate IMO.

    What exactly was the context of that slideshow though? Was it entirely choreographed for the purposes of the movie, a re-enactment of a presentation he gave earlier or actually live footage of an actual talk he gave?

    Nick Against the World

    For the uniniated, it's actually a remake of a hugely successful Mandarin movie titled Infernal Affairs. I was afraid it wouldn't do the original justice but going by the early impressions it seems good enough.

    Ah, watched the trailer for that; I'm guessing its a docu-drama-esque piece; Al Gore in the trailer put me off a fair bit, but the premise of the movie was pretty intriguing. Guess I'll be catching it after all.

    Most under appreciated all-time Juve 11

    I dunno about Laudrup...no doubts about his quality but he was certainly well received enough, and not just by Juventini either. Ferrara wasn't exactly underappreciated by Juventini either, he's always been a favourite. Underrated by the national side at times, perhaps, and the general...

    most over-appreciated juventus all time 11

    Bah. Pessotto? He was one of the most reliable full backs we've had in the past decade if anything, could play on either flank and even in midfield. Mot importantly he was rarely lauded as anything more than a squad player; I fail to see how he was in any way over-appreciated. Oh, and his tragic...

    The Formula 1 Season 2006 Thread

    It was an excellent race all round, its been increasingly rare in recent years to see the leading trio of a race separated by no more than 2 seconds up till beyond the halfway mark. Some great driving by Fisichella I must say, he had to walk the tightrope of feathering his throttle behind a...

    the better defender - gentile or scirea?

    Carles constantly strikes me as a player who has every physical attribute a stopper could ask for, without the mind to go with it. He lacks awareness and isn't the most disciplined of players either; what he has in abundance is aggression, passion and determination. His approach to defending is...
