Juve call crisis meeting
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Juventus' directors, players and staff held a meeting today to stress the club's faith in Coach Claudio Ranieri.
The Old Lady have suffered a miserable few weeks with disappointing draws against Sampdoria, Catania and BATE Borisov and last weekend's defeat at the hands of Palermo.
The Press and many fans have turned on Ranieri, but the Turin giants have stressed that they will be keeping faith with the ex-Parma man, in spite of rumours they are lining up Roma Coach Luciano Spalletti.
At 9.40am this morning, Juve director Jean-Claude Blanc and sporting director Alessio Secco arrived at Vinovo to talk to the players.
Ranieri was also present and the only absentees were those members of the squad away on international duty.
The directors stressed their belief in Ranieri and then stayed to watch the morning training session.
Juve must deliver after the international break when they travel to the Stadio San Paolo to face Napoli.
