The problem is that there is no bright side. 
Please find the post where I blame everything that has gone wrong so far this season on Del Piero, I'm having trouble finding. I have not blamed Alex for everything this season, I only criticize him. The difference between the two are like night and day.
I think Capello taking Del Piero off at half-time speaks for itself. He substituted a player who is no longer able to contribute to the team. The reason why I criticize Del Piero "again and again" is because he sucks again and again in almost all of the matches he plays. I feel ashamed to have a player who consistantly does nothing match after match play for Juve, barring a few "tap-ins" or penalties to get recognition. What happens if you take away the tap-in goals this season, what are you left with? Absolutely NOTHING. That sums it up rather nicely. I think its time to get over Del Piero people, I did long ago. The reason being it only gets worse from here.
Damn, I wish we still had Miccoli...
What? Did you just say Moggi would be stupid to find a replacement? God bless your soul..
Moggi would do everybody a favor by bringing in a replacement for Del Piero. It would spare Alex the embarrassment, not continually starting for Juve. Go out when you are somewhat ahead...

You haven't seen half of Juve's matches so far this season so you're hardly one to comment on how Alex does nothing match after match after match, and that simply isn't true. He started the season poorly as he was struggling with a tendon problem, but he has done well in most of the games since then except for against Bayern (which was the first game he played after returning), Bologna and Milan.
PS. Only one of Del Piero's 8 goals was from the penalty spot.

And we'll hardly benefit from the sale of Ale anyways. No-one is going to pay more than 10m for him and he helps the club make more than that in sponsporship deals alone. Bench him until he regains form, it's imo too late to sell him now. If anything wait until he strings a few good games together and ups his value a tad.
i think that del piero feels comfortable even if he plays bad because he knows that he is loved by many many fans...
i say that juventus supporters as well as del piero fans should gather near juventus building in torino and show their upset and anger because of the way del piero is playing, although it might seem like a joke but this could push del piero to improve..

ypu know what is funny, ever since I'm a Juve fan, Del Piero has been a regular in Juve, I have seen Lippi's Juve, Ancelloti's Juve and now Cappello's Juve... all of the 3 coaches have put DP on their starting 11... whats my point?
Well I will tell you... 3 great coaches have coach Juve and all of them believed in Del Piero so much to put him on their starting lineups, and don't tell me that they hadn't choises coz Lippi could have put Miccoli or Zalayeta or even Di Vaio, Ancelloti could have put Kovacevic and Trez (in his time he was a backup) and now Cappelo can put Zalayeta insted of him, but all 3 of them put Del Piero...
In the national team its the same, all the last coaches have call Del Piero and put him responsabilty.
My point is that Del Piero maybe its not the spaectacular player that he was, and probably he never will, but with his bad form and all he has manage to score 5 goals for us this season, in my book, thats a great contribution...
Ok, when Trez gets back use DP has a backup, but to sell him? thats crazy....
Some of you say that we should sell him and get Saviola or Morientes, but you are forgetting that Juventus has a style of playing that is not the same of the teams that this players play in this moments, our style bases in a great defence, why? coz we are in a very defensive league.
Some of you would want to see a attacking Juve, that score more than 3 goals per game, well I have news for you, That its not going to happend, we don't play like that, and with that defensive style of playing nobody could know if a Saviola or a Morientes would perform in the same way that they are actually performing...
Somethimes I feel that the Del Piero haters are Juve fans who always wanted to see Del Piero back to his old form, and since his will never ge back to that, they hate Del Piero for that, and all the time say, "He played like crap" or " we played with 10 men" coz they expect that he plays like he played in his first years, ... so, for those of you... Del Piero will never be that player again, but still he is a great player (its not me who say it, see Lippi comments, Ancelotti comments, Cappelo Comments, Zoff Comments... people who knows about soccer) and can contribute alot to Juve...
Buttom line its...
I don't consider my self a Del Piero lover, I criticese as much of some of you, but if 3 great coaches have put their confidence on him, to starting him and give him the captain brand, if Juventus managment still believes on him so much to keep his high wages, then that could tell you that he still its a great player and still have a lot to give...
But maybe I'm wrong, maybe Liipi was wrong, maybe Lotti was wrong, maybe Cappello is wrong, maybe Moggi is wrong, maybe all these people don't know shit about soccer and you do...
maybe...

Oh, are you my big brother Stu, knowing excatly what games I have watched thus far?
As a matter a FACT, I have seen all Champions League matches, and about 10 Serie A matches. It's the same match even if you are not seeing it live. So sorry Stu, you're wrong, again, about that one.
Doing well, to me at least, is being involved with the match, making sensible plays with the other attackers. Del Piero was hardly "doing well" in most of the matches. Yes, he had a few tap-ins for goals. So what? He has not created much by himself so far this season. We need a player who can be involved during the match, making runs and constructive passes. Del Piero, sorry to say, is not our man.

Well you told me that you were trying to get Gol TV for Xmas because you didn't have any Serie A coverage, didn't you? If I'm wrong my apologies..
So seeing that you've seen a good set of our games this season, wasn't DP involved in the games against Ajax, Siena, Roma, Lecce, Lazio and others? Aren't his passes more constructive than Zlatan's and Camoranesi's who have been two of our better players? I certainly think so. The Milan match was the worst I've seen Alex in a while now and though Ibrahimovic makes more runs than DP he also loses the ball much more. Given current form Del Piero does NOT deserve to be in the starting line-up, but he hasn't had as bad a season as you say.

The media is a different case, but i remember when del piero was playing a match, he did nothing important in it and at the end he went to cheer his fans in the stadium, they were jumping and yelling del piero's name... this thing makes him feel that he is well supported from his fans whatever his form is..
imagine that del piero is shown a little disappointment by moggi or his lovers, i guess he would feel eager to improve to prove himself again...
his case now is like a boy who is failing in his school and his parents are telling him "its ok, try again" for many many times
and Stuart remember that DP is one of my favorites

As I understand it alot of the players (when playing at home) go to the stands at the end of the game to acknowledge the supporters and thank them for coming. If anything I'd like to think that knowing that you have all of these loyal supporters would encourage you to give more when on the pitch. Del Piero knows what he is capable of and I think he's trying. I'm a footballer myself and for whatever reason sometimes you go out onto the pitch and nothing goes your way. DP is a pro and should be contributing more than he is, but I don't think he's satisfied with what he's doing.
yes he isn't satisfied with how he's playing and i hope he improves.....
btw, i was thinking that all these threads attacking del piero's performance were created after milan- juve match and in fact no one in juve did well last match, there is time for him to regain his quality in the next matches...

Yes, I am going to get GOL TV for Christmas. However, I have been able to watch most of the matches because of the UEFA.com Action package, links from soccerstreams and other websites, and also Bit Torrent.
There was nothing special in the Ajax match except for a few good moves in the first half. Siena was possibly his best match of the season, but I do not agree with you about the others, barring Roma because I did not see that one.
I have said this time and time again, Zlatan is more of a force than Del Piero. Zlatan has made far more goals than Alex, and has about 8 "assists" to only the one I saw from Del Piero. You want a list of matches in which Del Piero has not "done well"? All the Champions League matches except for the last one, which did not matter. In the Serie A, Reggina, Palermo, Fiorentina, Bologna, and now Milan are the most noteble matches. That sounds pretty bad to me.
