Here's an article from a Swedish news/fan site. Thought I'd share. Translated for your benefit :)


Guestchronical: Don't discount Juventus or Ranieri


The Juventus forum at Svenskafans is a luxury where individuals are given the chance to express their feelings amongst themselves, even to outsiders. I just love Swedish democracy; I find myself in the middle of this but am determined to crown myself your spokesperson.


Thomas Nordahl "agrees with me" in that you can never discount Juventus. I sat at a restaurant in Uppsala, ordered a glass of wine and prepared myself for Fiorentina-Juventus. I met up with the good hearted Thomas Nordahl who was to commentate the match. My hand on the bible I witnessed Thomas Nordahl predict 2-1 to Fiorentina, i.e. a loss to Juventus. What was he thinking about? Irritated, I shared my viewpoints to him about his lousy prediction. After I was done he said, "Juve is Juve, you never know about them"

That was enough for me, I got the confirmation of a wise man that Juventus can never be discounted. Pity for Thomas Nordahl that he didn't listen to his conscious but hat he instead let himself be fooled when he predicted as he did.


Well, for those of you who're interested; the date was 04-12-2005 and the match ended 1-2 to Juventus, I won. I got the last laugh and it felt extremely good. It felt even better because that night I, Joseph Mazmanian, got to be Don Tommasos alarm clock.

* * * * * * * * * * *

Anyhow, you have succeeded in forming all sorts of starting elevens but whom amongst you have predicted the right starting eleven before the match? Exactly! There is nothing better than a spontaneous coach like Ranieri. It is "impossible" to predict the starting eleven. Will Ranieri play an attacking style this weekend? No one knows when Juventus get in action - Juve is Juve, I can't stop loving Juve.

After seven matches we are in second place in the best league in the world. How predictable and possible was this five months ago, if may ask? Exactly! Don't repeat the mistake, don't count out Juventus or Ranieri.

Despite the loss of important players, an injury list that is a mile long and catastrophes like the catastrophe in Asia, we are standing there as a threat to the other top clubs in Italy. Take my word, Inter are aware of the fact that we are the threat. Inter will start their best players on the fourth of November. If they aren't underestimating us, then let's not do it ourselves. Don't discount Juve or Ranieri. Patience my friends, if you don't want to learn from me then learn from Don Tommaso. Soon it will be time.

    But it's an opinionated article Salman and honestly, I agree with him. I'm not one to sit and watch other leagues, except for maybe the Argentinian league. I think they're all boring.
