yeah that would be great :cool: Besiktas would be ok too i guess but then there will be another big flame war between turkish and juve fans...

If Milan can do everyone a favor and let Celta win, then Ajax would get knocked out :D:p

lol

no, i want ajax in. and bsiktas would be bad. they defeated chelsea in england and drew with lazio in rome. when we play like this i want some germans or scandinavians. passionte play would kill us.

maybe...but it would still be better than being drawn up against Arsenal or ManU.

Face it guys, were getting deportivo, we've met them for the past 4 years. its like they want us!
Di vaio, DP and nedved should start, with miccolli playing in camo's place. we need these subs cos they are passionate and hungry, maresca should play instead of that shmuck appiah, while thuram should be in a central defence role with pessotto on his right. hopefully that idiot legrotalie wont play. when did juve start losing? when legrotalie came back..... NOT DEL PIERO!!!

Personally I would play Trezeguet-Miccoli upfront and let DP-DV start against Parma. DP always does well against Parma and DV will be playing against his old team so he might even have that extra motivation.

So against Olimpiakos play Trez and Miccoli (who was unlucky in the CL after hitting the post twice...third time lucky?).

Next week there's also the Coppa Italia so I'm guessing Lippi will play the second lines in the CL and Coppa Italia so he can have the best team for Serie A.

Legrottaglie should know the hard way that he's not in form. The fact that Lippi subbed Montero instead of him (mind you, Monty was doing bad too) but it showed that Lippi doesn't want to shatter the confidene of this young lad, but I think its too much.

Quite simply put, Ciro can still hold his own against any opposition in the world. He should be considered in the big games. I hope Lippi gets the defensive situation sorted out against Olympiakos.
Anything other than a win in this match would , imo, be another piece of sh*t result.

My lineup:

........................Buffon...........................
Thuram......Ciro...............Montero......Zamby
Camoranesi.........Conte..............Maresca
........................Nedved...........................
Trezeguet............................Del Piero/Miccoli

I would move Nedved toCamo's spot (and keep him there) and give Oliveira a shot supporting Trez and DP.

This kid is going to need some meaningful minutes (Sorry, Coppa Italia), so why not now?

Or move Maresca up front and put Oliveira on the left.

I think that we have to play with full force in this game.. at least the first half. We need that point deseperately.. why?? Because we are not in form to face the big teams of europe right now.. and if we meet arsenal or manchester...even milan,,, theyw ill surely kick us out right now..
So is better to secure the first spot.
If needed.. just use the main players one half...and try to secure the game....then do some changes.

well, I think it's not a bad idea.. let's change the last two also and fit in davids..
like this..

------------------------------------Buffon
----------------ferrara---------------------Iuliano
thuram---------------------------------------------------Zambro

---------------------------------Tacchi
--------------------------------------------------------Davids

-------Nedved
-----------------------------------------Oliveira

---------------------Micco
--------------------------------------Di Vaio


I personally prefer Micco & Di Vaio.. I'm sucked of losing again becoz we depend on can't-get-back-to-form strikers..

Hydde the next round is in February so by then we should have fixed these problems. I wouldn't worry as much as I'm sure that this situation is just temporary. Obviously till this period passes, we beetter just play the most in form players to hold on and maybe even give space to players who have not had much chance (Maresca).

Gandalf, we can't use Davids in this match. He's suspended because of his second yellow against Gala.

Montero, Legro and Del Piero need some time on the bench. They haven't been performing and I think its time to give the others a chance.

I like Gandalf's formation but I think a few changes could be made since Nedved doesn't really play on the right(remember vs Inter?) and Davids is out.

My formation:
---------------------Buffon--------------------

Thuram--------Ferrara----------Iuliano------Zambrotta

-------------Tacchi--------------Maresca--------------

Miccoli------------------------------------------Nedved

---------------DiVaio-----------Trez/Zala-------------


Trez hasn't been playing quite well either, but he never gets any service. But when was the last time he wasted chances galore. Trez might be a ghost up front, but with this formation, we have 2-3 creative players in Maresca, Miccoli and sometimes Nedved. I think they can get him more involved than the Appiah-Camo-Dp combination.


Second half, bring in Tudor for Ciro since he'll probably be out of gas, and maybe Camo for either Miccoli or Di Vaio, and Appiah for Nedved since we have Parma on sunday.
