    [CL] Juventus vs Arsenal

    I agree with a lot of what you said Engonga, it is good to hear somebody talk with a lot of rationality. I understand that when the team play badly, or the tactics don't succeed, the manager has to shoulder a portion of the blame. My point was that I believe that surely if the manager can be...

    [CL] Juventus vs Arsenal

    Its all well and good to say that Lippi took the club to four finals, but as far as I am concerned, there is no honour in losing three finals, it counts for about as much as not qualifying at all. Capello has had two seasons, and in that time he has got into the last eight, whilst maintaining...

    [CL] Juventus vs Arsenal

    I'd agree Zlatan was awful but you can understand Capello keeping him on ahead of Trezeguet cause Zlatan is the more likely of the two to create a moment of magic. However, to suggest playing three people up front is audacious. Arsenal would have ripped Juve apart on the counter attack if Juve...

    [CL] Juventus vs Arsenal

    Well, I agree the manager has to take some stick for the mentality of the performance, but he is not the first and Lippi never got this much stick when his Juve gave lacklustre, negative performances in Europe and domestically. You have to accept that teams are going to have bad days, yes this...

    [CL] Juventus vs Arsenal

    Yeah but like I say, I believe Juventus have for a long time struggled to compete against English teams, not just in the past two years under Capello. Apart from the year of the drug-taking, Lippi had some very lean years in Europe, yet he reserves hero status. I believe that it reflects far...

    [CL] Juventus vs Arsenal

    LOL I didnt notice your Gerrard avatar. Hiddink would be good but he said he had made a decision about where he would be next season which he will say at the end of the month, and given that there are no plans to scrape Capello yet, I am guessing he has made plans elsewhere. Hiddink or Rafa...

    [CL] Juventus vs Arsenal

    Mark my words, Rafa is in at Liverpool for the LONG haul. If you lose Capello, you are destined to get Sven. I am not saying that is a bad thing, but he has never won the Champions League, and Capello has. I think it is a problem with the Juve mentality in general, Juventus do not seem to be...

    [CL] Juventus vs Arsenal

    Everyone needs to stop blaming Capello. He is the best manager in the world. He bought to Juve the best defender in the world and he took Juve from third to first in the space of a season. I bet Del Piero loves being kept on his feet by Fabio deep down. He has been rejuvinated under him...
