if Ogbonna is the last option, we might as well field Storari as a CB or just hand Barca the trophy.

I woke up this morning and all I can think about is Juve. Man, I remember the 90s when we used to dominate Europe after the victory in CL against the mighty Ajax. After that we were the best team in Europe for quite some time. We grow arrogant and lost two finals with superstars like Zidane and Del Piero. I expected a CL final every now and then, so it wasn't too painful.
But after that Lippi was gone and Ancelotti failed with us and made us look terrible abroad. In 2001 Zidane (my favourite player after Del Piero back then) left us and a new era began.
Lippi was back and in 2002 he brought us the scudetto. Very sweet moment. In 2003 the team reached it's potential, but Nedved missed the final and my heart was broken as much as his in the end. After that Lippi felt exhausted and left us for the last time.
And here came the Capello era. I didn't like him. He put security before creative play. We were rigid, slow and predictable team. He was a success in Serie A, but failed miserably in Europe against quick english teams. The transfers of the 30 year old Emerson and Vieira were quite annoying to me as a fan. We needed a classy back up for Camoranesi and Nedved, but he was all about defensive security.
Then in 2006 Calciopoli struck us. Damn, it was so obvious even back then that it was all a conspiracy against Juve form the madafakin Moratti. First attack form his papers, then a sporting committee from ex-nerazzuri which after that were offered jobs in Moratti's companies. But the World Cup was the joy for Juve. We fielded a full squad in the final. Both in Italy and France NT we had so many players, we proved our class.
Of course after our demotion in Serie B we saw who the true men were. Capello, Cannavaro, Zambrotta, Ibrahimovic were the first to go. Alex and Nedved were the first to stay. Buffon also won Serie B with us and let's not forget about Trezeguet and Camoranesi. Our former star Deschamps came to lead to promotion.
After that we all remember the story pretty well. In Serie A there was Ranieri, Zaccheroni, Ferara, Del Neri... We were slowly becoming an average team in Serie A playing on an outdated stadium in Torino.
And then 2011 struck us with a new stadium and new hope. At first many of us didn't believe in Conte and we all thought that he will be just another club icon like Ferrrara who will fail to bring a good season. But no. He did it. He brought us back to top place in his first season. It was the sweetest moment. We knew that we were back in the big game.
After that Conte was eaten by his own success. He thought that the defensive 3-5-2 is the key even for european success. The fans grew hungrier and wanted a good european campaign. He gave his best but the defensive tactics failed him in Europe. It was an enormous pressure for him and he decided to step down.
So, here comes this season. OMG, we got the the disaster Allegri as a coach. Many of us were frustrated that a failed coach in Milan was coming to lead us. Many prophets thought that he will start our demise, but they were wrong. And here we are on top of Europe playing with mighty Barcelona and believing in the miracle called treble.
I can't stop crying
Hi Guys. I'm usually at another forum, but I can't forget you peeps over here and the (few?) friends I got here. 
This whole road to Berlin experience has been surreal. When those two side walk out on to the Berlino pitch, it's going to biggest game of their (and our's as fans) lives in the last 12 years.
I'm more than proud to have never left the old lady, no matter what. This was a long journey for us from the lower division, to shitty managers, Molinaro and Amauri superstars to where we are now.
No matter what the result, we've come a long way ladies and gentlemen. Let's be proud of that, and stick it to the haters who preached "they robbed serie a thats why they fail in Europe" all the time. Well, we're there, and that trophy is there for the taking. Chiellini out or not will make a difference, but still I have faith in the boys.THey'll win it the hard way, after Extra Time in true Italian fashion with Lo Stile Juve.
All I can think about this weekend. I got work deadlines, a crying-teething-baby who keeps us up all night (lol) and I'm literally having no time to think. But Juventus will always be there. This is a never ending life journey.
No matter what, I love you all. (#NoHomo)
Let's f*cking take them on !!!!!!!!
