Una stagione di alti e bassi: magie e prove deludenti. Capello lo ha sostituito 28 volte, molti lo davano per finito. Ma la volata scudetto porta la sua firma

MILANO, 20 maggio 2005 - Per i tifosi bianconeri "E' la cosa più bella che c'è", come cantano, sempre e comunque, a prescindere dalla sua prestazione, quando il capitano della Juventus scende in campo. Ma sono stati in tanti, quest'anno, a dubitare di Alessandro Del Piero. Inutile girarci intorno: tanti critici e addetti ai lavori lo consideravano (considerano?) finito. Un buon giocatore, certo, ma non più il campione simbolo dei bianconeri, l'uomo della provvidenza, quello cui aggrapparsi quando serve quel qualcosa in più che solo gli artisti del pallone sanno inventare.
Si è capito fin dall'estate che le cose per il n° 10 erano cambiate: con Capello non era più intoccabile, ma soltanto uno dei tanti. Lui, Alessandro del Piero, cinque scudetti, una coppa Campioni ed un'Intercontinentale conquistati con quella maglia. Bandiera e volto della Vecchia Signora trattato alla stregua (con tutto il rispetto) di un Birindelli qualsiasi. Del resto Ibrahimovic incantava, Trezeguet la metteva sempre dentro, e Capello, più realista del re, non ha fatto sconti: Ale sostituito sistematicamente (alla fine non ha sentito sul campo il triplice fischio finale per ben 28 volte) e qualche volta a sedere in panchina accanto a lui, rimpiazzato non solo da Ibra e Trezegol, ma anche dal "proletario" Zalayeta. Qui del Piero ha vinto il suo scudetto: mai una polemica, anche quando ha perso la Nazionale del "suo" Lippi per l'utilizzo a singhiozzo (e onestamente anche per un rendimento altalenante: splendidi tocchi d'autore, come il tacco al Siena, ma anche qualche gara anonima). Ha stretto i denti e corso ancora più forte, anche quando si parlava di un imminente arrivo di Cassano, anche quando c'era chi faceva il conto alla rovescia della fine della squalifica di Mutu. Niente atteggiamenti isterici comuni a tanti suoi colleghi che hanno incantato e vinto meno della metà di lui, ma che urlano alla lesa maestà per un cambio a 5' dalla fine.
E nella sfida decisiva per il tricolore, a San Siro contro il Milan, con una rovesciata, ha capovolto il corso del destino, decisivo più che mai, sfornando, con un capolavoro atletico e tecnico, l'assist più prezioso che Trezeguet ha trasformato nel gol che ha firmato il campionato. E poi ha messo le olive nel Martini con quella capocciata (non esattamente la specialità della casa) che ha trafitto il Parma la domenica seguente, quella dell'allungo decisivo sul Milan. Si è ripreso la Juve, da capitano l'ha guidata nel momento del bisogno: i gradi glieli ha restituiti il campo, più che la fascia. Così come il posto da titolare, e pazienza se in panchina è finito il cecchino Trezeguet. Ale ha vinto e segnato (portando a 13 reti il suo bottino in campionato) festeggiando con un urlo liberatorio, ma soprattutto con un sorriso smagliante. Campione in campo e fuori, trascinatore anche senza alzare la voce, ma i tifosi bianconeri della curva non si sono certo stupiti: è o no la cosa più bella che c'è?

Just look at how they're praising Del Piero, Bes. Don't you think people writing for la gazzetta know their stuff?

A season of highs and lows. Capello substituted him 28 times, but the final touch to secure to scudetto was his. For the Juve fans he's the most beautiful thing there is. But this year, many doubted Alessandro Del Piero. Still considered a good player, but not anymore a champion and symbol of Juve.

With Capello, Del Piero wasn't untouchable any longer. He was just one out of many. Him, Del Piero, the man with 5 scudetti, 1 CL and an Intercontinental Cup. Considered less than Trezeguet and Zlatan he was also put aside by Zalayeta.

But in the decisive game in San Siro, he decided fate with an athletic and technical masterpiece, an extremely important assist, which Trezeguet put away to decide the championship.

He's a champion on and off the pitch. Apparently the fans in the Curva aren't that stupid: or isn't that the most beautiful thing there is?

i don't know how a real juve fans hate del piero
so if anyone said that he is a good player infront of any other club fan they will kill him ??
he give and give and give and what he get !!?? nothin

He's been rewarded more than fairly, believe you me.

And I doubt there are Juve fans that hate Del Piero, but just because we love Juventus doesnt mean we have to love him.

. Kovacevic screwed it himself and so did Miccoli and Di Vaio. At no point in time they were good enough to replace Il Capitano, just admit it Bes. They FAILED.

None of them were world class like Del Piero ONCE was, but all of them were mostly kept on the bench despite being in better form than Del Piero.

Z, i figured you wouldnt bother anymore

 

[Zlatan]

I don't. Well, not as much as before anyways.

If they weren't world class, they were not good enough to be at Juventus anyway. I doubt Miccoli would have played the season Del Piero played. What everyone seems to forget as well, is that Del Piero in fact did spend a lot of time on the bench.

ya man. opf course i am smarter. what do you expect lippi to say, sorry Kovacevic, miccoli, di viao and friends for screwing your careers but you know he is named del piero and you arent.

:LOL:

 

[delp_07]

No he liipi didnt have to tell them who he is. Del Piero did that when he was on the pitch he let people know that this is his team

First of all, at no point after his injury was Del Piero world class. By your logic that would mean he didnt deserve to be at Juventus. Secondly, you cant have 25 world class players in a team.

That is your personal opinion,nothing more....

 

[Lawnchair Bes]

and what makes your personal opinion better?

 

[Eaglesnake_1]

Your wrong. My personal opinion is not better, is just another one...

What i was trying to mean, donny, was that it is an opinion, an not a fact.
ex: "At no point after his injury was Dp world class". Its an opinion...

"Juventus has won 28 scudetti". Its a fact.....

Just that

No but About five hundred experts in soccer would argue that because it was him who led us to champs final and won us scudetto in 2003 and in 2002 he won us the scudetto because he made sure his team never gave up even in the last game of the season.

never gave up ? what do you call milan - juve in 2003 ? if that didnt prove that without nedved we couldnt do shit then i dont think anything proved it.

Del Piero can't over-take 11 players by himself, neither do Nedved, I don't think Pavel would had done something also if Dp wasn't there.

you just said that del piero was Mr. Season that year. I am not saying that either him or Nedved were Mr. Season but if you were to look at our most influential player that season it should rightfully be nedved

Still no argument here ey bessy.

well it is rather simple to "prove" that. would you say that before the injury del piero was world class ? if yes, then compare his numbers pre and after the injury and see if you get even half the goals and assists

We played well before the Extratimes and Conte managed to hit the bar on a DP cross...If only it had gone in...Del Piero was also very dangerous on 2 occasions but Dida denied him a goal, Trez missed a follow-up...Remember DP scored his Pen! Fvcking Pens!
