I really think supporting juve was a bad choice for you. supporting a club does not mean bashing players, and screaming to replace them. At least some people try to support juve for what it is, and not for what it could be if we bought all the WC-players.
Surely molinaro is not on a international top-level, we all agree on that, but he still can improve, and he does run a lot. Also, in defence, even if he's not world-class, he had his good games. What i'm trying to say is, molinaro may be a weak spot in our defence, but he can improve, and i'm all for it to keep him (maybe send him on loan)

We Did Our Best - Ranieri
Claudio Ranieri commented on the goalless draw of Juventus away to Empoli, and did not feel like complaining about the players' performances.
Juventus coach Claudio Ranieri talked about the goalless draw away to Empoli, which despite the Bianconeri's shallow performance still allowed them to gain one point over their challengers Milan and Fiorentina, who both lost tonight.
"We wanted to win, but we were facing a very determined Empoli side, who were well organised," the coach commented. "Compliments to Empoli, they played with a 4-5-1 and they didn't allow us to play. We tried, but we didn't manage to win. It's always better to get a point rather than nothing.
"The second round of the season is always more difficult than the first, not just for Juve, but for everyone. On our part, I think we are having a good season, but it's difficult. I don't have anything to complain about to my players, perhaps only the last pass wasn't quite right, but today it was hard to find spaces."
Juventus remained comfortably in third place following tonight's match, as they currently hold a 5-point lead over fourth-placed Fiorentina.
I mean if this old fart isn't liveing in LALA land...i don't know who is...

this draw was really disapointing... i wudn't have minded a draw against Inter, but drawing such a low lying team is simply unacceptable! for a team like Mighty Juve, we shud've won this match 2-0... ESPECIALLY against a "weak team" like Empoli.
Dumb: Ranieri being pleased with the draw...
Dumber: Gigli being satisfied with the draw also!!!

thats ranieri for ya!
Well if that’s your logic then:
- It's always better to have dumb haircut like spock than to have no hair at all.
- It's always better to have any woman you can get than to have no woman in your life at all
- It's always better to be a janitor than to have no job at all
This guy has some high aspirations for himself and his club. I feel bad for his children, they are all probably being raised to aim for second best in life. There is no sense of urgency or passion to compete and win. I understand if players don’t care about winning because the money is more important to them but a coach who doesn't burn about not winning is almost equivalent to a coach that doesn't care.

Did you really believe in squad depth as a definition?
It comes from the fact that certain players have been(or are) performing well on certain positions. Here is the part we get misunderstood...
You are saying we might cost third, but our players lack the depth of Roma (which have a lesser paid squad) or Inter and Milan. I cannot concur. Yes they perform better now - but reasons for that could be beyond our capabilities to understand (incl. personal life). Our coach is to motivate, rotate, experiment and most importantly perfect the players as overall and in specified (envisioned by him positions!!!).
Now here is the cheesy part: Ranieri does not have the confidence to explore, to change to rotate and experiment. Yes he have been brave to play a 3 forward tactical aproach but that is his only tactical experiment. Grygera was a later example.
So we have an icon like Buffon and DP and he gets 10 mil salary? Because he is 15 years with the club? No! He gets the salary because (both) I believe could get back every penny of it. DP might have bad games, but his actions are class. He does not have the support and he does the job. Actually I would rate him higher than Ibrahimovic this season even if you laugh at that. Buffon I would just skip.
Then it comes to replacements and market presence. Surely you could throw Secco in the pack of must-be-kicked-out employees. But he spend some money that is undeniable. So why this players and why two of the most expensive DM in the last 3 transfer markets are 'good enough' for Empoli? How is it this guys cannot be squeezed to 110 for just a 'couple' of games - we are playing really.
You are laughing at Greece - but actually this is the example you should be looking for. What about the 7 star Brazil Squad - they are LOOSERS? And they are close to what some of you may call them the FIFA dreamteam - but who was speaking about that ? lol
I think you underestimate the presence of the coach a lot. If you calculate the brute force of talents discovered by a single good coach - you would find that this squad-depth is actually a very fictional figure.
So sorry to sound unimpressed, and please do not try to convince me or god-forbid explain to me what that is. I got it, thanks. But think about the basic of football and how actually players stepped into the new era of game - change tactics not change players. That is what I am saying. But hey - if you want to be an irrational fella call for Ibrahimovic - he is great. Sure remember when he was playing for us? G - R - E - A - T... ROFL
Or take Maicon - he could be the next huge flop. It is only when players vision and coach tactics combine that we see the right result - which in you TV screen is a great player - but in the real world it is much more of a complicated equation.

You're kidding me right?
Looking at Claudio's first year coaching this squad COMING from Serie B unbeaten by the big sides and you're missing Capello?
I wonder how Crapello would have managed this squad looking at his prev squads he couldn't put his mark in CL simply because he plays pathetic football.
I'm not a fan of Ranieri, never was, but he's 10x the coach Fabio Capello is. He's got the balls to coach such a team returning back from Serie B while Capello would only accept 22 world class players.
