Alex Del Piero has broken Gaetano Scirea’s Juventus appearance record and Paul Watson hopes the media finally give him the praise he deserves


After the unexpected hiatus caused by the postponement of last weekend’s game against Parma, Alex finally chalked up Juve appearance 553 and he did so in style. The Old Lady fell in Palermo, but their inspirational captain could hardly have done more after firing a brace and coming a whisker away from a hat-trick when his free-kick struck the woodwork.

The ever-fickle Press in the peninsula have been quick to write Alex off as past it, but despite their best efforts to exaggerate his off days this term, Del Piero remains inspirational.

The gifted hitman is no stranger to honours, but becoming the Bianconeri’s all-time appearance leader irrevocably cements his place in calcio’s Hall of Fame. However hard they try, the media can’t question this achievement. Del Piero’s name has become synonymous with Italian football and his legacy is assured.

For my generation it is hard to imagine a Juventus without Del Piero. After 15 years in the Bianconeri jersey, the Padova youth product embodies the indomitable spirit of the Old Lady. With the game full of prima donnas and flashes in the pan, Del Piero stands out as a man with a powerful love of the game and his club.

While it would be easy to list a catalogue of Alex’s glorious moments, the true measure of the man surfaced after the Calciopoli scandal. Faced with the prospect of Serie B football, many stars would have baulked. Instead, Del Piero stepped up and topped the Capocannoniere chart.

Granted, his career may be winding down, but a recent poll revealed that the majority of Italians want to see Del Piero in the Azzurri shirt at Euro 2008. Glory in Austria and Switzerland would be a fitting international swansong for a great servant to the Italian game.

With it looking likely that Pavel Nedved will sign a new deal at 35, Alex could probably have a few seasons left in Turin if that’s what he wants. But given his reluctance to outstay his welcome, we may be witnessing the final chapter of the Del Piero story – and what an epic it was.

GRANDE CAPITANO!

FORZA DEL PIERO!

BANDIERA DELLA JUVE E BANDIERA DI CALCIO ITALIANO E DEL MONDO!

:flag: :flag: :flag: :flag:

 

[Azzurri7]

From now on each goal Ale will score or each performance he'll make I'll dedicate itto Donadoni butt.

 

[rvi]

 

[Azzurri7]

Both goals were scored with his left foot

 

[Ahmed]

fantastic performance by Ale....very unfortunate we couldn't get a result because we thoroughly deserved 3 points...credit to Palermo they came up trumps

 

[ZAF3000]

Del Piero is so freakin talented. In the first goal there was a question for a possible PK for Momo. When Ale received the ball he paused for a fraction of a second but when noticed that the ref did not call a PK he "simply" outclassed the defender and placed with ease in the goal.

[Osman]

Where do you find these marvellous game pics? It would be cool if you did the same for Momo's thread (noticed you have for several players).

Notice in his first goal how calmly he turned the ball into his left foot. In such a situation most strikers would take it with their right...but you need to be one classy player to turn the ball into your left foot and finish the ball in such a way.

The website's name is on the corner right of the picture,and I did look for a picture of Momo but didn't see any good close up shots,theres one or two of him that I posted in the post Juventus pictures thread that you can check out.

Well if you think about it, its unfair for us to compare good players with Del Piero.. They simply don't stand a chance

 

[Azzurri7]

Thats right...I was a bit harsh on that

Yep, a major example of keeping your cool right there

Guys, I got a favor to ask: does anybody have Del Piero's 200 goals video? The one that Sky made after his 200th goal, it's called "Bianco, Nero... e Del Piero"

Anybody has that or could send me on MSN or smth? Would be much appreciated...

PS and fuck computers

 

[Azzurri7]

It's easy to find that sky 200 goals one. Incase you dont find it on google, it's somewhere here in the med section

 

[Martin]

Relax, guys. He's 3 goals away from 150 Serie A goals, no doubt they'll be a new video out soon.

 

[Azzurri7]

Friend of mine (Milanista) is expecting a freekick goal by Alex.

How sweet of him

Serie A slides down rich list

A study by France Football has revealed that Serie A’s stars are not amongst the top earners in the world.

For the first time in the history of the survey, which also takes into account money earned through sponsorship, there wasn’t an Italian-based player in the top seven.

David Beckham of Los Angeles Galaxy leads the way, followed by Milan target Ronaldinho, Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo and Thierry Henry.

The top earner from Serie A, ironically, is Ronaldo of Milan, who is pocketing £10.7m annually, despite his career-threatening injury.

FIFA World Player of the Year Kaka is just ninth with £10.3m with Juventus legend Alessandro Del Piero the highest earning Italian at £8.8m.

Azzurri skipper Fabio Cannavaro is 11th with £8.6m and Francesco Totti – £7.8m – and Luca Toni – £6.7m – are 18th and 20th respectively in the hierarchy.

Fabio Capello is the second wealthiest Coach behind former Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho, with Roberto Mancini’s £4m per year at Inter putting him ninth.
