Sweatpants and yeezies. For an italian he's looking terrible at times.

At least he isn't wearing white sneakers.

He’s an LA man now

Next time I'm there I'm going to his restaurant.

 

[Rockets]

Will he be back?

it's della valle, so fairly reliable

I'm not sure if thatd be the right choice but I'm still hyped tbh

Id love him back, are you kidding me? The holder of all major records as an outfield player would always get a chance to test himself in managerial role. As a face of the club Id be 100% for this. But his lack of exp cant be disregarded so all the major decision making should be done by more experienced managers. In time, if he grows into the role and proves to be competent enough, he will be given more responsibilities. I dont want another Nedved situation or that we burn another legend during our difficult times.

 

[Espectro]

I love him, he is and always will be my favorite player and I truly believe he is THE legend of this club.

BUT…

bring him as Vicepresident would be a mistake, he is not ready for that and he will be another Nedved, and end up having the same fate and that would break my heart.

If you want him at the club give him a role in the club where he can grow and gain experience.

For once let’s learn from our mistakes

Maldini is a good example to follow.

Maldini is a good example to follow.

I could be horribly wrong as we don't know these people and, if so, I apologise to him. But to me it seems like Maldini is quite a bit more intelligent, or at least better schooled, than Del Piero.

any particular reason you think so? both have been rather pristine and scandal free in their lengthy careers, but Del Piero even more so than Maldini, who had the row with Milan fans and the tax corruption case. I've always liked Del Piero's interviews, at least the ones he gives in Italian, he's balanced and classy. of course his English is bad indeed.

Maldini simply comes across as a more academic person with a lot more interest in business than Del Piero. I don't think Del Piero is stupid at all, his interviews demonstrate the opposite. It's just that I think he has never really focused on developing his skills in certain fields. There's also the fact that Maldini's father had a very long career as a manager and I believe Maldini probably has a broader view of the entire football world. In terms of looks too: Maldini dresses like freaking Harvey Specter. The experience shows.

 

[JuveJay]

Pretty torn on this, would be great if it works, but also would never want to see his legacy tarnished.

In my opinion Nedved’s legacy isn’t ruined. He’s been on the board and Vice President during one of the most successful period of our clubs history. Of course things took a nasty turn but I still greatly admire him

Del Piero is the most natural and logical choice out there. Basically he fills the gap between the board and the fans. The most beloved player in the clubs history. He should definitely become the face of our board, no doubts. I’d be disappointed if he didn’t return to be honest.

Del Piero just got Los Angeles-ed when it comes to dressing
As a figurehead and ambassador to the club, you can’t get a more well respected and well spoken man than Del Piero. As long as he’s surrounded by actual businessmen who are good at their jobs, it could work. Maybe he learns a thing or two along the way.

Absolutely

Would rather he didn't come when the club is in such a mess. He deserves better.

Totally agree that he could start out in that role and maybe become more important along the way. But I am not entirely sure he'd want that role, because you risk being held accountable by the public for things you didn't really decide. On the other hand I think Del Piero cannot be ready for any true director role at a business the size of Juventus. It would be a challenge for people with years of experience, let alone for someone who has - in all fairness - not held a true job in his life.

I do think Del Piero is someone who wants to do things well and can grow quickly when presented with a challenge. So yeah, maybe it's like throwing him into the water and see if he can swim. I just hope he can.
