Just look at the Uefa Cup. England and Spain tend to be well represented in there because their leagues have strong teams outside of the top 4. Same can't be said for Italy.
Exactly. I remember Palermo (people thought they were title contenders here) and their humiliation in the UEFA Cup, When was the last time an Italian team reached a decent stage in that cup? Marseille have performed better than them in recent years.

Meh the English teams haven't been that much better then the Italian. It's middlesbrough that played in the final last year other then that they haven't done much.

argentinian league is actually the most fun league to watch, not to mention the wealth of talent it produces every year
It's fun to watch but it's shit. The reason why attacking creative players look so great and you see so many fantastic goals is because the defending is horrendous and they give people a million years on the ball.

yeah must be. even biglia (coming from argentina, now at anderlecht. a talent) had to adapt real hard to the belgian league. :confused:

I can´t understand why Jacques´s words for other Juventino´s here haven´t been more beaten down. How can a guy from Sweden say that it disgusts him people are actually rooting for teams that are playing in the competition. I can´t recall our team being drafted this year, so we should all just NOT turn on the TV and enjoy good football? We can´t pick a side when it comes to those games, because we should be oh so busy being true fans to our own football club?

Do you watch your local team in Göteborg play and think all the time that you can´t cheer one of the teems on because neither of them isn´t Juve? What a load of bullshit. Even though Milan have a better record than Juve in the Champions league , it does not change the fact of the matter we aren´t playing in that particular competition. So while my team is striving to end up playing Serie A football next term and then maybe play CL football the season after that, I want to enjoy watching the other teams playing. And I can sure as hell root for whatever team I like. Hell, I´ll say Milan is the most wonderful team on the planet to watch. I don´t fucking care.

It´s not like I live in Turin or that I have Juve directly in my blood, BUT, I still regard myself as a die-hard one and only supporter of a team called Juventus. Neither you nor anyone else can tell me anything else.

Basically what you´re saying is very, very and oh yes Very contradictive.

Milan showed pure ownage tonight, and I am happy for them

They represent the league that WE play in, and I will always support the Italian teams in such circumstances (except Inter- they arent Italian :p )

a million years on the ball?? they actually run more than their english counterpart, the defending is dubious i agree but more often than not it's either because defenders are caught attacking or are trying some fancy move instead of clearing. that indeed is the curse of talented players to sometimes complicate instead of making the simple pass or clearance. I personally rate the argentinian league highly and enjoy watching it every sunday.

Milan has restored some pride for Italian football... now for them to finish the job in Athens...

Ownage, yes. But Italian football?

More like Brazilian, folks. :disagree:

And even at that, it really should have been the Chievo Verona Flying Donkeys, not the Milan Red Devils, there. :(

Brazilian? besides Dida & Kaka... and maybe 2nd half sub Cafu... i don't see many Brazilians on the pitch...

i'm quite sure i saw Nesta... Oddo... Inzaghi... Gilardino... Pirlo & Gattuso lift the WC for Italy...

milan pool again, what a downer
It couldn´t have been any worse, Milan and Liverpool in the finals again. :sigh:

Congratulations Milan!Now lift the cup for the last time before Juve comes back and kick your Butts!:D
:disagree: Idiot. If Milan wins it Juventus will never come even near to Milan´s number of CL trophies and you can only dream of us competing with them.

they can have a million. we r champions of italy
And what, Italian championship is more worthy of a Champions League? :disagree:

YAAAY Milan are owning us in European records and Juve fans are happy about it

Excuse me, I just puked
:weee: What can you do, man? Join the party. Forza Milan!

If milan win the CL i would be happy for italian football, 1st the azzurri winning the WC and an italian team winning the CL. If that makes me a milan fan hey whatever! Fieri di essere italiana :faq1:
Shut up. You are boring already.

Who cares if Milan can +1 a trophy on their shelf. This could be a good thing for us both in advertising and in transfer deals.
:lol: I didn´t hear a dumber thing than this for months. How is this gonna help Juventus? :disagree:
