I thought it was a given I was talking about the MEDICAL staff since I posted in the injury thread. Next time I'll be more specific.

Juve doctor under pressure
Wednesday 4 February, 2009
Juventus club doctor Riccardo Agricola could be facing the sack as the Old Lady's injury woes continue.

The Bianconeri have suffered more than their fair share of injuries this season and a plethora of stars have been out of action for significant periods.

According to La Stampa, the Turin giants are ready to point the finger at club medic Agricola.

The paper claims that sporting director Alessio Secco and chief executive Jean-Claude Blanc are discussing a possible replacement for Agricola.

The doctor has been at the club since the beginning of the 1990s but his days at Vinovo could be numbered.


take him away please





Agricola was in 2004 guilty of drug abuse..for doping on Dp and others..


"Riccardo Agricola, guilty of administering banned drugs to some of the world’s leading players during the 1990s. Agricola received a 22-month prison sentence but Antonio Giraudo, the director of the Turin club, who was charged with the same offence, was acquitted.

Agricola’s conviction was the result of a six-year investigation by Raffaele Guariniello, the public prosecutor, who accused the 27-times Italian champions of systematically doping players between 1994 and 1998, one of the most successful periods in their history. "

If memory serves, the substances were not illegal at the time Juve were using them.

And it just sounds like the club is looking for a scapegoat. Would be better off having a total rethink of training and medical methods, rather than sacking one person and hoping everything will work out for the best.

On tv they clearly showed gargano's knee smash right into De Ceglie's side, I think from the way it impacted he will be very luck if there is no break.
