That's fair. But seeing how Ale feels twords us the Juve supporters and hearing him say the stuff he says about the club and our colors, makes me even a bigger Juventus fan.. Del Piero is Juventus, Juventus is Del Piero!

One more game, 100th more emotions, hopefully one more cup. My hero Alex I don't know how I will deal with the fact that I will not see you in the black and white you have made your own. I have only ever known Juventus with Alex and Alex with Juventus...I remember growing up with pictures of you on my wall, watching you play, even when I could not understand the game I was drawn to you. You have given so much to this team, the sport and me...I know I will never be as emotionally attached to a player as I am to you..There is something that is more than football here, it is more than admiration, it is genuine love. I feel as if I have known you my whole life. It is crazy, I feel like I am losing a loved one. I remember how angry I got when I saw you on the bench under Capello and how I defended you even if I was so young after those famous Euro's (and I would do it again). While the kids at school went from Ronaldo to Ronaldihno, Messi to C.Ronaldo I could never find a player better than you. I admired many others but in my eyes you were the best and no one came close. There was something different with you Alex, you had an aura around you not of arrogance but a quiet confidence and intelligence, a humble captain who did things so effortlessly. I remember how I cried when you scored in Germany, I knew what that moment meant for you, to shut the haters up as you did was poetry. When you lined up to take that penalty in the final I was so nervous, more for you than the final itself. It was strange, you are more than a footballer to me, you are family. You loved this shirt like us fans, you bled for it, you made it sparkle when times were bleak. Those goals against Real Madrid, the standing ovation...Man I have never been more in awe of anyone. I get tears in my eyes thinking about it. The way you were leading goal scorer in Serie B and then you came up and did in Serie A, it was something only you could do. You did it not with selfishness but with brilliance. The way you tried to have Trez be joint goalscorer with you, sadly it failed but we saw the man you were, the man you are and the man you continue to be. The quiet genius, the humble captain. You are more than numbers and statistics, when I think of you I think of more than our leading goal scorer...So much more, for me you are the greatest player to grace this beautiful game. No words will ever be enough to describe my love for you, thank you truly Alex...It will never be the same without you, but the memory of you in this shirt will comfort me. Your smile in that last Serie A game will live with me forever.

Grazie Alex, lets win another cup together!
just when I thought my heart was starting to settle down and come to terms with everything...i read this :cry:

Really, it took me a while to actually find the words to describe how I feel but even now I couldn't. Thanks everyone but I wish I could do more for our capitano.
Damn I cant +rep you again,must spread some first.
Kinda like hoori, I felt the same, I was just getting in control of my emotions another article/video/pic just pops up and makes me sad and in disbelief yet again,although its probably my own fault,as I am always looking for more articles/pics/vids of our capitano.

It will really feel weird,as I know Del Piero still have alot to offer for our Club, I just hope someday he gets back to Juve,his home and salutes his fans,nay,family as another integral part of Juve.

I also have never seen him live,I am saving and the first country I will go to is wherever Del Piero is and get a hug(hopefully) and say thank you to him,for all the greatest memories I have with Juve and Azzurri because of him!

Grazie salvo

If I'm perfectly honest right now, I don't know if I can still consider myself a Juventus fan.
I know exactly how you feel..I am a fan because of Del Piero,and just as his love has grown with Juve and the fans,so have mine with Juve. He will want us to keep on loving Juve!

That avatar you have is 100% correct though!

I will. But it's not the same. I will never support a team or a player the same way. Del Piero was my childhood hero. You only get one of those :).
