Maybe in future some of you would becoame famous and every time you go back on your word intentionally on not, you could be open to scrutiny. Yes none of here has ever gone back on their word. cannavaro at the age of 33, just won the world cup and he gets a chance to join Real madrid, but somehow he supposed to say sod that, i am staying with Juventus. Yeah yeah Dp, Trez, Nedved, Camoranesi and Buffon stayed. But what happened, thruout the season Buffon, Trez and Camoranesi were almost on a daily basis either threatening to leave or telling the board to make the club competitive or they would leave. It would have been impossible from a financial point of view to keep all thos e players. Dp and Nedved, would never have gotten anywhere near what they are currently getting at Juventus, so why should they leave. If Dp was 27 or if he had a great world cup, abd big teams came in for him, do you really think he would have stayed? This is the same guy who said it himself, that he would have left if Capello stayed at the club. Buffon was begged to stay because if he left it might have been a mass exodus so the club really needed him to stay. The need for Zambrotta, Thuram, Emerson, Zlatan, Vieira and Cannavaro was not as great as they needed to balacne the books and it was necessary to trim the squad. I suppose its alright to treat players like Miccolli like a piece of meat but its not okay for these players to wanna better themselves because of deluded fans who would have abandoned ship if they were in the same shoes.
@ Andy, I still feel Barzagli is a very good defender and one of the most skilful on the ball. Corrini is a very good player but he is more of a ball playing midfielder, not a ball winner, so I don't see what that has got to do with Barzagli form. Simplicio was hopeless last season anyways. What are you talking about Guidolin like he was not the manager last season as well so how does he affect Barzagli's form in any way? Every defender struggles if there is little protection from the midfield. My point was that if a player signs for Juventus, then he is suddenly world class or a good player but if he does not sign he is overrated ie Milito and Barzagli. All of a sudden Almiron and Tiago are meant to ooze class because they signed for Juventus? whe we signed Boumsong, some people were actually thinking he would improve dramatically because he signed for us. There is a line between wishing someone well and just plain delusion. Kovac, the same thing.
