Il Capitano Alessandro Del Piero (95 Viewers)

[Martin]

An Israeli sports channel reports that Ale rejected offers from 46 (!) clubs. Anyone knows if it's true?

Yes, I do.

I mean cmon, do you really expect someone to answer this?

Respect his decision and STFU. Really, don't mess with the captain.

That'd be an awesome shirt...

I didn't mean if someone really knows, you clown I meant if anybody can confirm that he heard that from more reliable source

First of all - when do they have a season break in A-League and can we loan back our Captain for a month or two? I'd kill for seeing him in Champions League, Henry-style.

Man, I think it wasn't the greatest of moves but whatever. Hope he has fun over there.

No break. The season starts in October and ends in April. Then nothing for like half year. Kill me.

Came here just to post this, and saw you already did. But man if thats true, its a class act. Doesn't surprise me though, ale is the definition of class

Looks like he'd be free to play in CL Final in May.
Just sayin'...

Comes on, scores a free kick. Lifts the CL trophy. Sounds perfect

 

[paoluzzo]

i think it will be more a life experience rather than a professional thing. Different culture, different language, a quite place for him and his family. He has 38 guys, he's not 30. And then Australia is beautiful.

 

[Ahmed]

much rather he play in A League rather then some midtable English crap or some other random European side.

Made the front page of the major Sydney newspaper.

You guys wanna hear something scary? The first team that Ale will face in the A-league, Wellington Phoenix from New Zealand- that finished 4th in the last A-league season (Syndey finished 5th)- suffered a 3-2 loss last Saturday to Shillong Lajong, THE NEWLY PROMOTED TO THE FIRST INDIAN LEAGUE (that's right, the played last season in the second league in India, only 7 teams in this league BTW), during a pre-season tournament. And I don't even wanna quote their coach, who was pretty happy about their performance overall.

Kill me, Ale's gonna play amatuer football.

I know. It sounds from you, the Australians, that this league is horrible. How bad it really is?

P.S

From short explore in wikipedia (Teams, squads) it looks like a deep $#@!.

I've seen games where free kicks around the box go out for throw-ins. Let me tell you, it's pretty damn bad. Weekend amateur leagues are more watchable.

ADP will run rings around them.

It gets worse with every piece of info...

You can't be serious about the FK. Is it that awful? I can't believe Ale agreed to join this league. He suffered so much in Serie B, and the Serie B is 10 times better than the A-league, it seems. Again, I wonder if he knows how bad it is.

A Serie B team would win the A-League with 7 players on the pitch.

It is not that bad, it is a really young league, it is growing. Hopefully this will be a big jump in the league. Trust Alex's judgement, he knows what he is doing, come on the guy is not an idiot. The teams do relatively well in the Asian CL, Sydney finished 3rd in their group.
