Bye bye CL.
I just checked on soccernet and saw that Marchionni is 25. That's a bit of a bummer IMO. We need lightning in that midfield. Emo and Vieira are good players but simply cancel each other to make us slow in the middle.I feel Emo has more passion in him so Paddy should bench, but that's just my opinion.

It's funny how games like Tuesday r able 2 reveal the truth people have been denying ( including me),about our team and it's prolific weakness(es). We r a light case of Real Madrid that needs midfield rebuilding.



Eeeer, what do you mean???

lets get behind this team with some OPTIMISM. what do you think the team WANTS its fans to say it cant win?

WE CAN MAKE THAT DIFFERENCE!

we have nothing to lose on wednesday and we are going to go all out and score those 2 goals.

remember that feeling when nedved crossed for del piero who headed it back and trezeguet scored past casillas? remember that feeling when del piero shimmied hiero and drove it bottom left? or when zambrotta did that half volley through to nedved who half volleyed it first time? I REMEMBER THAT FEELING AND REMEMBER WHAT WAS SAID BEFORE THE GAME, HOW WE COULD NEVER DO IT! WE DID AND WE ARE GIONG TO DO IT AGAIN!
I admire your optimism BUT the thing about 03 is that Trezz scored in Madrid, that made all the difference. Had it not been for that, 3-1 would'nt have been enough just like it is now. What I'm sayin is, even if we hypothetically manage to score 3, Ars will definately score in Turin - it's almost a given. They play THE best counter attacking football and this time our slow ass midfield with 30 something Gianni replacing Vieira will have to go 4 it and we all know what that means....Titi

i know, getting the away goal would have been good.

but its not a DEFINITE that arsenal are going to score. we can break their morale with an early goal. i think it would help if capello went for a 4-3-1-2 or a 4-3-3, and that is possible regardless of what peolpe say about capello. HE KNOWS we have to score 2 goals.

BUFFON
BALZARETTI THRUAM CANNAVARO CHIELLINI
MUTU EMERSON ZAMBROTTA
NEDVED
TREZEGUET ZLATAN

would be ideal but even if capello goes for this i think we can score 2:

BUFFON
ZAMBROTTA CANNAVARO THURAM CHIELLINI
MUTU EMERSON GIANNICHEDA(BLASI) NEDVED
TREZEGUET ZLATAN

let's hope a first goal from nedved in the 20 ' !
that would be great !
that will give the team another spirit I'm sure !


P.S : I'll be sad for nedved if we don't pass through arsenal . he deserves something

Yeah, but then again:

If we win the return leg 3-1 and crash out, at least we can be proud of our players, who gave it their all!

I agree to us likely being out of the competition, but it wouldn't hurt to get behind the team, as is our only duty as fans.
We're the 12th man on the field for Juventus, and we need to "play well" just like any black and white striped player that day.

A goal from Nedved in the 20th minute will give him the energy to win it all and get us in the semis.

Juve without Del Piero is worthless. WORTHLESS.

Del Piero can make the difference this time too like he came off the bench vs Roma scored a brace and gave us a chance. Only if he plays atleast 80 minutes. But it might be too late.

by far the worst player on the pitch,every problem in defence we had is his product....I give him a + cuz he earned a red card so I wont loose my nerves with him in second leg.
Yep, You said it.

He showed he simply doesn't have what it takes to play in a Champions League quarter final.

My strategy for the return leg, Yeah I know, Capello won't play this.
Nice tactics, but I think we are kind of asking a lot out of mutu, he certainly aint the type of player who can tackle the defensive midfielders, he was outshurugged by eboue as for outshrugging the likes of gilberto may just seem even more difficult for him. I think nedved should go in the middle atleast he seems more determined and can maybe win us some freekicks. Maybe putting zlatan in mutus position and zalayeta in zlatans may just help. The reason is because zlatan is tall enough to knock it down to nedved or trezegol. Arsenal have always had that physical presence at the back and hopefully zalayeta can provide some muscle in the tussle. Or rather I hope so. And I totally agree with having chielini and zambo on the wings that should help an awful lot. Also how about playing that formation midway through the match ( once we have clawed one goal back). Th estarting formation in my eyes should be something like a 3-5-2. If we can control the midfield then we certainly got them on their backfoot.

I would go 4 :

----------------buffon--------------------------
-------Thuram---Canna---Kovac-------------
---Nedved----Emo---Gianni----Zambrotta--
------------------Mutu-------------------------
---------------Trezz----DP/Ibra---------------

We have to expose Senderos and Flamini. The 2 Ivory Coast internationals are absolutely superb so they need to be overwhelmed or decoyed to let Trezz exploit Senderos. I hope somebody breaks Reyes. Camo's 1st yellow was his dive. I hate that kid with a passion...
