What exactly am I doing?
It is simple. At this moment Del Piero is one of our best 4 strikers and at 37 he's still better than the trio fantastico of leeches we have in the stands. That means that he'll still get to play, probably start matches too if he plays better than two of Mirko, Quag, Matri or shows more in training.
Knowing the fetish for buying attackers the post-Calciopoli Juve has, next summer we might add a couple more attackers and Del Piero might find himself in a very embarrassing situation where there won't be place for him even on the bench. Finally, Conte is not starting DP for almost 2 months now, even when there aren't many Juve attackers better than Del Piero. Next year the situation could be worse.
Publicly pushing DP out of the team is definitely idiotic. That was a huge mistake by Agnelli which could be lethal for the team's atmosphere. What should have been done was Agnelli to keep quiet and then see if DP would have decided to quit or not. I think that he would have done it after seeing that there is very little space for him in the starting XI.
