I think the presence of the young lad Marrone may also have helped the decision...Ciro seems to rate him a lot, and that's possibly another reason he though Zanetti could be let go
Grazie Zanetti. Not the most spectacular player but a loyal player. He deserves to leave if he wants and he also deserves to play more because he's a good player. I'll miss him.
Cristiano Zanetti is a loyal and extraordinarily competent midfielder. To offload this unique player is a massive mistake. There are no one in Juventus who can replace his silky smooth passing.
Replacing this magician with the likes of Melo is just sad. Juventus are acting as though they are Inter as of 2004, which is not a compliment.
I am stunned, shocked and numbed by Seccos actions, and this really makes me less interested in Juventus.

Honestly, a player like Zanetti is more important to lo Stilo Juve and the club than a player like Zidane.
Also, Zanetti is a more capable player than Melo, no doubt in my mind. Sure, the Brazilian is more impressive physically, but when talking about playing football, the old man that's leaving leaves Melo biting the dust.
Marchionni could still deliver though. I always thought of him as a pretty great player, too bad he didn't deliver while he was with us.
And I think Zanetti is a huge upgrade for them.
Oh, and why are there already names popping up of possible replacements? I thought we got rid of the guy because we have too many midfielders as it is.
We will be fine, we have plenty of cover, especially with poulsen staying and with the faith marrone has been given. Ciro must see something bigger than zanetti so I trust him.
