Una Iena di nome Del Piero


Alex Del Piero è stato protagonista lunedì sera di una simpatica intervista alle Iene. Il campione bianconero è stato intervistato a 360° gradi. Ecco la sua confessione.

Un pregio di Del Piero?
Riflessivo

Un difetto di Del Piero?
Troppo riflessivo

Un aggettivo per gli allenatori che hai avuto?
Trapattoni: enigmatico. Sacchi: impallinato. Ancelotti: amichevole. Lippi: puntiglioso. Maldini: paterno. Zoff: riflessivo. Capello: vulcanico.

Perchè non sei nella lista dei 50 del Pallone d'Oro?
Perchè l'ultimo anno è stato negativo dopo un Europeo da schifo

L'arbitro migliore?
Quelli italiani

Quello che ti ha fatto più arrabbiare?
Collina

L'infortunio che ti ha fatto più soffrire?
La rottura del ginocchio nel 1998

Ce l'hai ancora con Zeman?
Sì perchè ha parlato male nei miei confronti

Cosa vuoi dire a Cassano?
Antò, calmati no?

A Ibrahimovic per il gol del 2-2 in Italia-Svezia?
Gli ho già dato un calcio nel sedere

Il giocatore più forte che hai visto giocare?
Van Basten e Maradona

Il giocatore più sottovalutato?
Penso a Di Livo e Torricelli, sono da esempio

Il gol più bello?
Il 3-2 di Juve -Fiorentina (che il simpatico Alex ha raccontato imitando benissimo le voci di Pizzul e Caressa)

Chi vince lo scudetto?
Spero la Juve

I think Del piero is not the same like before the injuiry, his style of play is now differnt.. he was quicker before.. But he is still one of the best players in the world.. And he is very important for juve.. not only on the pitch.. he is a symbol of juve.. every great team has such a player..
DP must stay with us until he retieres (in 5 or 6 years) and after that too.. he can take the place of moggi..:D

I think you're talking about "juggles" or "keep-ups", though I'm not sure

I just watched the video. Alex is such a likeable guy :touched: Even when he says that he's still angry at Zeman etc. he still looks sincere and not bitter..

They asked him how many juggles he can do with his head, and he said "5000" (you have to watch the video; he didn't say it in a cocky way, but spread out his arms and exhaggerated :))

El Diez sonríe cada vez que lo mira

Diego Armando Maradona señaló que Alessandro Del Piero es uno de los pocos grandes campeones que lo hacen aún divertir



ROMA (AP) -- Diego Maradona señaló que el delantero de Juventus y la selección italiana Alessandro Del Piero es uno de los pocos grandes campeones que lo hacen aún divertir, en un mensaje de feliz cumpleaños que le envió desde Cuba.

"De verdaderos campeones que logran aún hacerme divertir mirando un partido, han quedado pocos y entre estos, estás tú", señaló Maradona sobre los 30 años de Del Piero, en un mensaje publicado el martes por Tuttosport.

"Por esta razón", agrega Maradona, "te pido que me hagas todavía divertir, pero sobre todo de continuar a divertirte junto a nuestra amada pelota".

Maradona le dice que está "en su amada Cuba" y "con tantos deseos de recuperar todo aquello que he perdido de mis años, que ya son 44".

El ex astro del fútbol argentino se encuentra en Cuba para tratarse su adicción de la droga.

Translation.... this was an interview with Maradona, where he said that Del Piero is one of the few champions that still make him smile and enjoy soccer, so he send Alex this message in his 30 birthday

" True champions in soccer, that make me enjoy soccer are just a few, and you are one of them" state Maradona " Thats why, I'm asking you to keep making me smile, and above all keep enjoy with our loved ball"...

:cool:
