Neither one of them three will leave, which is a very BIG MISTAKE...
What is Moggi thinking about? The CL and Scudetto will fall on his head from the skies? How naive!
So, Lippi will not quit. But keeping Trezeguet, Thuram and Nedved all in the squad is very wrong. With negative budget this year, how in the world is Moggi going to buy defenders and mifielders? We will not win the CL to get that UEFA money...
Trezequet is worth $20 million, Thurdam $7 - $8 million. That's a lot of money nowadays... we have Barcelona and Chelsea line up to see those guys on the counter.
I am telling y'all... next year we will not see a single new face in the team, because Mr. Lippi will again think that "everything is fine", and Mr. Moggi, who didn't bother to sign anyone in January, and said that he "didn't expect so many injuries all at once"- will come up with yet another stupid excuse this fall.
Moggi hangs on to Lippi

Juventus director general Luciano Moggi has shot down reports that Marcello Lippi, David Trezeguet and Pavel Nedved will leave next season.
“We are not looking for alibis,” said the transfer guru after their shock Champions’ League exit, “but we were unlucky to have seven players ruled out with injury.”
“We have the utmost faith in Lippi and he did what he could with a decimated squad. He will be with this club next season as well.”
The double defeat to Deportivo La Coruna sparked talk of a revolution at the Turin giants to change an ageing defence and ineffective midfield.
“The fans can relax,” continued Moggi in this evening’s press conference. “I will do my best to reinforce the side without going crazy.”
This was the first time in seven years that Juve failed to turn a profit, so with such an early exit from Europe sales must be made to prevent further losses.
Trezeguet is the main candidate to be sacrificed with Barcelona showing interest, but Moggi shut out all speculation. “Trezeguet is staying here.”
Nedved and Lilian Thuram are also heavily linked with big moves to Spain or England, although the director general also ruled out sweeping changes in even the weakest areas of the side.
“The same team, with the seven missing players included, was considered invincible only a few months ago,” he insisted.
Several club decisions are now under fire, such as the failure to pick up a midfielder or defender during the transfer window.
“There were no January signings because nobody expected so many injuries to pile up at the same time.”
Above all, last night’s defeat highlighted how much Edgar Davids – now on loan at Barcelona – has been missed.
“The Davids situation was different,” noted Moggi. “He wanted to leave and hadn’t played very much towards the end. Besides, we have faith in the suggestions of our Coach.”
