Il Capitano Alessandro Del Piero (88 Viewers)

Get your facts straight, I never said anything of the sort. I have always maintained that DP has been off form since 2003, and that the form he lost was not even near the pre-1998 form.

This just confirms what I previously said...You keep on denigrating Del Piero's performances as compared to his of 98! The form he "lost" in 2003 was stellar: did Ronaldo ever get back to his 97 form?? he won the golden ball though, the same applies for Zidane or Figo. They're all legendary players like Del Piero and have played well during some season in particular, but it does not mean they lost their form in the other seasons! in 98 Del Piero was simply (World Cup aside) the world's best player (10 goals in 10 games in the CL!), he got injured and it could have been the end of his career....But he found the strength to go back on top so please show some consideration and stop making inane comparisons. Bashing Del Piero because he is somehow far from his 1998 standard is simply unfair, he still managed to remain a world class player throughout his career. And it's not over yet, no matter how many Zlatans and Mutus come around. End of discussion.

Its not because Del Piero lost his 1998 form and never regained such brilliance, it is because for the past two seasons he has been rather disapointing and not doing enough to earn his spot on the pitch. Del Piero played throughout last season playing below par, and was favored in front of a Miccoli who should have recieved more playing time. This year finally our coach has some sense and plays the best players available to him, which means the disapointing Del Piero sits on the bench. And yes, he does deserve to sit on the bench because he has not earned a starting role, while Zlatan has earned it. And I just realized how pointless of a discussion this is because its in Capello's hands and he's doing a damn fine job. He might regain form, or he might not. We cannot keep waiting for him.

not denying DPs performance in the past, and not defending DP bashers, i believe that DP is inconsistent because of continuous injuries, and a team like juve is always engaged in CL and serie A titles, and i guess that a player like DP can't be relied on as a team leader and as a center of gravity of the team because of his bad form that is caused by injuries... im not saying he is over, he can still give something good to juve and i insist that he should play but with a minimized role in the team, i mean juve must start focusing on new players that will later become legends for juve just like DP. As for now, i hope he improves and finds his form again.....

:devil:

@ Andy: "For the past TWO seasons"? get youy facts straight mate...I'll be sad for u when Zlatan is benched...Any good run has an end, you'll see.

 

[ildivino]

More to the point,what exactly does trezeguet do to justify inclusion ahead of del piero?? del piero is a far more creative and team player...when he is on the field you expect much more going forward from juve.Why trezeguet hasn't been offloaded before now i dont know.........

I would be overjoyed if Del Piero finds amazing form to bench Zlatan, but its not going to happen. Jog on and get over it homie.

Many guys here (including Capello) consider him a world class finisher...

Personally I don't think being tall, strong and knowing how to score if u stand in the 6 yard against an empty goal r enough to make u a target man...

All the target men in big teams r capable of doing this things and more, just take a look at RVN, E'too, Ronaldo....

We need an attacker who can contribute more in the game making more runs, assist or at least trying to run and dribblle with the ball from time to time....

We have Trez. I think maybe one more, true. But as far as I am concerned, a more pressing need would be for an attacking midfielder, and then one more central defender.
Do you have Moggi's email address?

Is Trezewall a winner???

 

[Zlatan]

Eto'o is not the same type of striker as Trezeguet, not even close.

 

[DelpieroForLife]

Last time I checked Eto'o he was Barcelona's target man, and this is exactly my point, finishing is not the only skill U needed to be a good target man....
look at Roma's top goal scorer, Montella....
Is he tall?
NO
Dose he has a strong body?
NO
Is he a wall?
NO
OK we cannt compare him with Trezeguet cuz they r different type of player......

DON'T THINK SO.....

 

[aressandro10]

come on....Trezeguet were missing for a long time and already he have score the same amount of goals as Del Piero. What ever requiarement u put to be a top scorer , David Trezeguet clearly dont need them as he proves he can score year in year out with his own quality....

Man I just wanna ask u to pay more attantion in the next game to Trezeguet, as when he receive the ball from outside the penalty area, he instantly look around for any avaliable option, play the ball randomly like he wanna get rid of it....
He had to contribute more in the game, work on his skills, control.... this is why I'm always askin to sell him and bring Cassano...

Trezeguet's job is to score goals. He does his job well, and that's good enough for me. Every team IMO should have a deadly finisher on their team, and Trezeguet's finishing is much better than Del Piero and Zalayeta's.

As for getting Cassano, it's not like he's worth a packet of peantus, now is he? Anyway we have Mutu, who I'd definitely be satisfied with in the event that we don't end up signing Peter Pan.

 

[DelpieroForLife]

and do u think Roma, Barcelona, R.Madrid have a player of Trezeguet character?

maybe Man UTD, Bayeren Munich had a deadly finisher but I'm sure we cann't compare our lovely Trezeguet with the likes of RVN, Makkay....

that is called holding up ball man...u pass the ball to your target man..he hold them up for the other attacking to get up..that is part of the TEAMWORK... notice that when DEl Piero and Zlatan try to do that, they LOST the ball....

what u fail to pay attention is his positioning and scoring rate. U dont to have all the skill Cassano has to score many goals. Its much better for everyone in the team if we have someone we a great postiong finisher in the team.
