02/18/2003. Juventus' hopes of getting a result against Manchester United at Old Trafford tomorrow have been hit by a flu epidemic.
Gianluigi Buffon, Alessandro Birindelli, Marco Di Vaio, Gianluca Zambrotta and Marcelo Salas have all been struck down, and have not travelled to England.
With Alex Del Piero, Mark Iuliano and Igor Tudor injured, coach Marcello Lippi's options are severely limited.
It is unclear exactly what team the coach will field. In attack he could go with David Trezeguet and Marcelo Zalayeta, or indeed, the Frenchman, and Pavel Nedved advanced.

i think the best formation would look like this:
-------------------chimenti--------------------
pessotto---montero---ferrara---thuram
--------------conte------tacchi-------------
davids----------------------------------camo
---------------neddy--------------------------
------------------------trezegol--------------
not very weak but imo very crucial that buffon is not in goal.... hope antonio makes a good impression on his european debut(i think)......
the mid is fine as you can see,camo needs no introduction while neddy and davids can do their usual jobs....alternatively we could shuffle it a bit to look like this:
--------------tacchi-------------
davids-------------------zenoni
----------camo-----neddy------
which one do you guys think will be better?either way our chances are severely reduced because of this flu bug....
