It's weird seeing Del Piero talking about 'Pazza Inter' on CBS. Our legends have gone soft as well.

Maybe @Lion was right but since you're an Inda drughi now, you must have liked his comments.

I have no problem with our legends -- I just don't want them anywhere near the club.

I look at Del Piero with his ugly suits and goofy glasses being goofy on CBS and I just dont see a professional I want associated with the club.

I love Buffon and he's my all time favorite player, but he feels like a mascot in a suit for the Italian national team.

I questioned Pirlo's desire to be a coach. That job is a grind and you have to work your way up. Coaches coach. I'm not convinced he has that in him. And again, he's probably set for life financially and dedicated his entire career to football. If he doesn't want to have that grind and passion as a coach, I dont blame him. I wouldn't either.

I didn't take Barzagli seriously when hired short term as an assistant coach.

Zlatan is the same way with Milan. I'd want him nowhere near management.

There is one person I take seriously in coaching/management, and that would be Chiellini. I think he's a smart guy, is professional, and actually gets it. He has a legitimate future if he wants it.

His glasses are shocking. And also hate the carry on on that CBS Golazo show. Maldini looked like he was doing a decent job but he was undermined.

Chiellini has a Bachelors in economics/commerce and a Masters in business admin. So at least he's done some preparation for an admin role unlike Nedved who just walked in.

I watched the game today from 1998 that he done his knee in against Udinese.

I don't know why I did that to myself.

It happened in the last minute of stoppage time when the game was basically over. He had been taking hard hits the whole match and should have been subbed off long before the end of the game.

To add insult to injury Udinese equalized while he was being carried away in a stretcher.

It's sad to think how good he would have been and how much more success Juve would have had if it never happened.

I watched the 2003 CL semi final. The Nedved yellow was the most unnecessary foul ever and absolutely cost us in the final.

I then watched the final... Conte hitting the cross bar and multiple other chances missed. Del Piero almost had an amazing bicycle assist.

Then the penalties... Dida was literally running off the line to close down penalties. Was this not a rule back then?

Some of his recent outfits.

Frankly I'm not a huge fan of t-shirts with blazers. Maybe pair it with a white shirt or a polo. T-shirt sort of screams out you want to be young and cool and maybe a bit quirky and unpredictable, but at the end of the day you're wearing the same type of blazer any established adult man would.

Regardless, I think we can sort of accept this minor transgression and we should be glad the days of horror are over.

buffon is a bigger legend and it isn't up for debate. and buffon doesn't feel need to sell himself out to main stream media commenting on matches he knos nothing about. who is is del piero to tell us what tactics even work.
