Even if he nailed it, this thing would have would have probably gone to PKs and Riquelme would have been given another chance to choke.

You could see it from a mile he was gonna shoot there. The guy doesn't show up in big games and that's a fact. It's not about the pk. We didn't see him in both legs, especially this game.

I still think he is a good player... how good could he be at Juve, well that I dont know.

But I dont think he is a choker, remember the Intercontinental Cup when Boca played againt Real Madrid, he was amazing... and he has been great for his NT.

What's more interesting is this PELLEGRINI guy..

I really like the way Villareal are playing and I was thinking "what if they had better players"?

With the players we have at Juventus, and considering the players we have the power to bring here, wouldn't a compact "passing style" approach like this one suit us very well?

Villareal lacks one or two GREAT strikers, then they would've beaten Arsenal comfortably tonight, I'm sure of it.

Bring in PELLEGRINI! And make sure he takes Riquelme with him :)

Riquelme is a choke artist and will not fit into this Juventus squad. Forget about him because he will be a waste and won't play either with Capello in charge. Find someone who doesn't always need the ball and someone who actually does some work without it.

May I add to that?

He's a typical mercenary.

You didn't get my sarcasm. If he joined Juve with Capello in charge, he wouldn't play behind the strikers because of Mr. Capello's great tactics.

This man + Riquelme + Tacchinardi + Barzagli + Joaquin = A Move in the right direction

Villareal plays really well, imagine what a team full of stars could achieve with Pellegrini's style of play.

He's a better choice than Spaletti in my opinion, because I say so and because he's not bald and because he's not a fuckin Romanista :p

Easy on the boy! even the greats miss in vital situations (Baggio '94) (DelPiero Recently)

Boy still a genius! I'd still have him in our squad, but not as our penalty taker. :D

I dont know if Pelegrini would be good in Serie A, he could bethe same as Cuper...

And Tach... forget it, he is not coming back to Juve.
The only way Tach is coming back to Juve is if this man brings him here.

This is just wishing on my part, of course..

As for Pellegrini being a "Cuper" in Serie-A, I don't think he would..

This style of play would suit here.

And besides, he beat Inter over 2 legs didn't he? Scoring 3 goals in the process.
