I think it'd be a huge waste of having such a solid squad if we don't win the CL this season, especially given the lacklustre form of some of our rivals.
We have a very solid team, but we're gonna lose most of the backbone of our squad in a few years' time, so as much as I want us to stamp our authority on the Italian game once again, I'm as hungry as ever for the Champions League :boxing:

Del Piero hails Juve power
Friday 5 November, 2004
Alessandro Del Piero believes that Juventus have returned to being a major force in the European game.
The captain issued the warning as the Bianconeri booked their place in the last 16 of the Champions’ League on Wednesday.
"We’ve won four games out of four with the added characteristic of not having conceded a goal yet," he told his official website.
"That is quite a run and a clear signal for us but also our opponents on what to expect this term."
Del Piero was the hero at Bayern Munich as he netted the only goal in the closing minutes of the game.
"A draw would have been enough for us but we managed to score late on. We couldn’t have asked for more," he continued.
The Italian’s strike was especially significant as it was netted on the same ground that Juve lost to Borussia Dortmund in the 1997 European Cup Final.
"It was my first goal of the tournament this season and getting the winner at the Olympiastadion, where I lost a Final, was particularly special," he added.
"However, I must thank Zlatan Ibrahimovic for his work in the goal. I was simply in the right place at the right time."
Meanwhile, defender Fabio Cannavaro is looking ahead to Saturday’s game at little Reggina.
"We won’t let our guard down," insisted the stopper. "We have already shown in the past that we can put important performances together."

Its too early to said if we are really the strongest team in Europe, and there are many factors ahead that can impact the sustained rythm that we had obtain right now.
Some goal will be taken soon. Also a defeat or two are not far away. but that doesnt matter. What matters is the compactness of the team, the character and determination showed until now.
Some people is saying that we are wining but not playing great football. And that is interesting, because it only talks about what we can achieve if ( and we are in the process)we start to play great football.
Solidity, tactical discipline, mastering the tempos, 90 minutes focusing, an a great sense of teamplay will do the job in the meantime...

Provided they're all on form I probably agree, though players i consider reliable in our current lineup would only be
gigi
thuram
canna
zambro
zebina
emo
nedved
zlatan
doubts exist over camo blasi and delpiero, whether they can cut it in the crunch games, the big european ties. But sure with that defence and the best coach in the world we can go far.

OP
yeah it is really difficult IMO to win CL and SErie A you need the luck to have most of the important players injury free! last season we also had bad luck there! But also look at other teams Milan, Inter without Sheva or Adriano they are much weaker!!
and with Capello i think that he tries that the team is not that relying on him!!
also i think last year it was very interesting we were in CL final before and won the Serie A title and than at the beginning of the season everybody said who can stop Juve, and Lippi said that it was the best Squad he has worked with!! so i think you are never 100 % sure if things go well!
