Inter is the only dog .

and Ronaldinho is a Toothpaste .

Ronaldinho would be great if only he want to lower his ridiculous wage demand :juve1:

As if a player of his reputation and achievements would even think of doing that

I wouldn't want Ronaldinho at Juve. He's one of my least favourite players. I think he's massively over-rated.

Doesn't mean he wouldn't want him at Juventus... maybe he is pushing for Ronnie... we don't know either way.

And neither do Goal.

If they don't have anything concrete, I assume it is bullshit.

Occassionally they will guess right, but 99% of the time they will be putting 2+2 together and getting 5

It technically is concrete... Buffon did indeed give Ronaldinho praise. But obviously Goal and Channel 4 are just construing that into Buffon wanting him at Juventus which may or may not be true.

Although I have a VERY hard time believing that, in spite of this praise, Buffon wouldn't want Ronaldinho at Juventus. So in reality, Goal might not be too far off the mark here. And believe me, I know how inane they can be. I used to write match reports for them.

That is my point.

They have decided that because Buffon thinks Dinho is good, he is pressuring the board to sign him.

I get bored of them taking a minor comment and making it into a story.

With just a month and a half to go before Euro 2008, World Cup winning goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon looked back on the 2006 final against France the Azzurri won on penalties. The match will forever be remembered for legendary French playmaker Zinedine Zidane's sending off for head-butting Marco Materazzi, but Buffon revealed that if it hadn't been for him this might never have happened.

"Zidane's sending off was entirely thanks to me," he explains. "I was the only one who saw it and I immediately told the linesman, who then watched the TV images and told the referee.

"We were having problems from a physical standpoint: I don't know if we would have made it with 11 men against 11, they were killing us. On the penalty shoot out I wasn't decisive though, and that's what probably what cost me the Ballon D'Or [which went to his Italy team mate Fabio Cannavaro]."

Buffon also talked about his club Juventus: "This year we were competitive because we participated in only one competition, but next year it will be tougher: we are doing something extraordinary this year, we started with the aim of finishing fourth, and now we can even finish second, even though we probably won't catch up with Roma. We'll certainly need some reinforcements, but I trust our managers."

His last words were on Alessandro Del Piero and his goalkeeping deputy Emanuele Belardi: "If Alex plays like this, it will be tough to keep him at home. And I don't understand why the club are looking so hard for a replacement keeper, my current team mate is doing well and deserves to be trusted."

Danilo Pochini

you gotta love this guy!

in that case thanks buffon for the sending of of zidane :wink:

What is Buffon suppose to say when asked about Ronaldinho??.. I'm not saying words are put in his mouth but ofcourse Buffon being the nice man he is, is going to say kind words for Ronaldinho

Juventus keeper Buffon admits Genoa ambitions
tribalfootball.com - April 24, 2008

Juventus goalkeeper Gigi Buffon has again admitted he'd welcome the chance to close his career with Genoa.
He said: "These are the dreams that one has a child, having been a fan of Genoa.

"It is clear that this is something which I'd like to do, but I do not know whether it is possible."

___________________

It's tribal but they quote him so I believe he really said that. I'd disappionted if he won't close his career here at Juventus.

 

[rvi]

Yeah I'd be disappointed with that too.

I hope he does.

 

[Ahmed]

Bah, foget Genoa Gigi, u're Bianconero for life!

 

[K.O.]

super gigi juventino for life ..

I hope he closes his career with us but if he were to go to Genoa for his last year or two in no way would my respect for him diminish the slightest.. He's an absolute champion of a bloke and has given us so much and will continue for years to come and he'd be considered a bianconeri legend either way as i'm sure he'll stay with at least till 2014

 

[Mark]

Give him a break now! It's clear he's not 100% and today was a great example. I'm afraid the EURO won't help him one bit so we definitely need a good backup keeper for next season.

 

[Salvo]

ye a break would be good for him now.

Our need for a competent back-up keeper is increasing by the game it seems.. Although i couldnt be more against taking it easy for the last 3 games, Gigi needs to be rested and I'm pretty sure Ranieri knows this

 

[pavelnedved]

Superman had a rather poor game last sunday. I think it's Belardi time. We have nothing more to win in case Roma don't severely fuck up anyway.

 

[Mafia]

Yup, i really believe he should rest his back so it can get better as soon as possible.
