We were never this big outsiders as far as I can remember.

In 2003, despite Juventus being considered a top team, I remember how everyone was saying that even though there are 3 Italian teams in the semifinal, the non-Italian team (Real Madrid) will easily win it in the end. Real were 70-30 favorites in the eyes of the bookies and the public back in 2003.
People said that about Real for almost 10 years. And that was despite them getting knocked out of the 1/8 and 1/4 finals every year, by teams like Roma and Lyon.

yeah, remember it as well. Real were defending champions, signed Ronaldo, easily beat United in the QF and were full of stars. we were considered underdogs by the majority of football fans out there

Yeah, but back then they had a reason to say such things. In 2003 semifinals Real was a team that won 3 of the last 5 CLs. The reigning champions, who on top of having Zidane, Figo, Roberto Carlos, Raul and the others from the 2002 winning team, also added Ronaldo to the roster. Even more, everyone was still under impression of their quarterfinal win and Ronaldo's hat trick against Manchester.
Back then they were even more impressive than today. But so were we :D

Since I can't edit for some silly reason - Manchester United destroyed us 0:3 in Turin earlier that spring.

Anyway, that was a long time ago. We played Real last year so this is where we should be looking for comparisons.

I thought we were all set to overtake the english at the end of the season no?
Currently without the 2010-2011 season which shouldn't be taken in consideration next year the standings are like this .

Spain-----------77.928
Germany-------62.892
England---------62.034
Italy------------56.105
Portugal--------42.249

Don't know if We can overtake them really , someone needs to do the calculations for this .

Don't get how spanish teams always perform well in EL >_>

Anyway Germany and England aren't that far away but you'd need to replicate seasons like this one for 3 or more years to overtake them

What section on the stand?? I ordered mine today too. Hopefully won't have to wait too long.
Curva Sud 1° sector 121

Oh lord i am afraid to ask but how exactly and where did you order?? cause today it's avaible only for those being season ticket holders and it can't be resold....

Anyway if you followed official resellers it should be istant. I paid with paypal on listicket and they loaded the ticket on my Juventus Member Card

why are you buying tickets if you are a season ticket holder? dont they count for CL or what is it?
No you pay (almost) 500$ to watch all the 19games of Seria A plus a bonus game for Coppa Italia but you have preemption over champions league/EuropaLeague/Coppa Italia games. Basically you pay to get yor season spot in those competitions

To make it short no you don't have champions league games included. You have to buy everytime the ticket if you wanna watch Champions League live.

Let me tell you that without a J1897 membership card hardly you'll find a ticket.
There will be like 19k tickets avaibles and probably all of them will go to who paid for a membership card J1897 and then premium ones

Anyway good luck
