@UltraKenan: No, we were not at our best. Thuram is not in form and some of the players such as Zambrotta were clearly tired from their National Team exploits and the Chievo encounter. Hopefully you'll see a better account of Juve when we travel to Turkey, although it will be very tough to win...
I will not praise Del Piero when he plays badly, but he hasn't played badly yet this season! :( I'm not saying that DP was brilliant on Wednesday, but you were criticizing him and that's stupid since he was our best player :groan: Also, you say that he is not in his best form, but this is the...
Yes, Appiah was good but something is wrong with Neddy. He didn't have a bad game but he just isn't the same player he was last season... He's still running like mad but he's also giving away the ball and not making those killer passes or taking those 20 meter piledrivers anymore :down: I wanna...
Tell me who was better? Not Buffon, not Thuram, not Ferrara, not Montero, not Zambrotta, not Tacchinardi, not Davids, not Camoranesi, not Nedved, not Trezeguet, not Di Vaio, not Tudor. The only player that was about as good as DP was Appiah.
OK, we were lucky to score from that particular situation, but Juve totally out shot Gala and had waaaaaaayyyyyyyyy more chances. If we didn't win it would have been a shame.
I know what derby means jackass. A derby is a game between two teams from the same city (eg. Milan vs Inter is the Milan derby and Lazio vs Roma is the Rome derby), but since you said that Real-Barca is a derby, then I said that Juve-Inter is one. Are Real Madrid from Barcelona? Are Barcelona...
May I add to your list of chances Trezeguet's left footed volley, Del Piero's two headers (one was saved by Mondragon, one went over the bar) and Trezeguet's header which was cleared off the line... IMO Gala weren't that good defensively it's just that they played with 10 men behind the ball and...
I can't take it easy! It gets me pissed to hear people talking absolute rubbish about my favourite player! The man is on top form and idiots are still going around the place saying that he is playing average, and that he can only take free kicks, and that he didn't play well, and that Raul and...
Basically you're saying that the only thing DP is doing well is taking free kicks? You're either mad, blind or anti-Del Piero because our captain has been unstoppable in our first three games of the season.
His dribbling runs and passes made us tick against Empoli, and the same goes for the...
Del Piero is playing average at the moment? What planet are you living on?! DP has been our best player in all three of our matches this season! At the moment he is the best support striker in the world!
Yeah, and neither Thuram nor Zambro did a lot of running. The former is not in form and the latter was probably a bit tired although he still made a big effort.
How can you say that DP didn't have a good game? He scored both goals, hit the crossbar and was constantly a threat to the Gala defence. True, he gave away the ball quite a bit, but he also made some really nice passes.
We lined up as a team playing 4-2-3-1 but essentially it was indeed a 4-2-2-2 as Del Piero played more like a forward than an attacking left winger, although he did go over to the left at times. In truth it was very similar to our classic 4-3-1-2 as at times Camo was alongside Tacchinardi and...
I thought that Appiah was good... As for Davids, he added energy and bite to the midfield and made a nice dribble going down the left flank, but it wasn't one of his best performances.
The black box is very ugly :yuck: They shouldn't have changed the shirt. If they did it because the numbers weren't very easy to see, they should've just changed the numbers from yellow to black.
That's because Uefa have credited the second Juve goal to Ferrara, so Del Piero got 9 points rather than 10, and I believe that 9x2=18, right? ;) Maybe the goal will be given to DP after further analysis.
