Del Piero is equal to no one. End of story.
If you are saying in terms of his legacy, his legend status then I can't do anything but agree.
But when it comes to team selection everyone should be judged equally and looked at what they bring this team and how they can help the team perform to it's current potential. I don't think that he has it in him anymore to be considered good enough for that.
I have never and will never be the one who dissagrees with him being one of the biggest if not the biggest club legend we have had. I admire him for that, and he is my favorite player because of that, in fact Juve is my fav team because of him. But times pass and it's time to move on.
Don't hate just because my is different perspective then yours. I would have loved if he left Juve when he was on top and still performed decent in a weaker league - usa or some other place. I didn't want him to stay till the end here just because of the sitiation we have today.
I don't think you are that blind to think that everybody who thinks that DP is past it hates on him. While the DPS guy... well he's just dumb.
Forza Del Piero and Forza Juve.

Hehe, this is funny.
I never said that United doesn't disrespect their legends, I said their fans doesn't.
Oh and btw, Ferguson kissed Cantona's ass 24-7.
Who is disrespecting him? You don't ask a 37 year old sprinter to compete in olimpics, that's insane. Those who do are romantic and unrealistic.
It really is a cool story on paper if DP plays and finishes strong, but it's more of wishful thinkig the anyhting more.
