It's not even that. We've seen Conte celebrate goals before, Borriello or not. The man gets happy when we score so you should not base your opinion on that. That's all we're saying.
if you read my posts its not about the goal that was just the icing on the cake, its about the whole season and what conte has done to get borriello playing time and starts etc

i said it before. He wanted him here. He kept playing him against every ones wishes/advice. He flipped out when he scored today and borriello ran right to him. All signs which show his desire to use/play and want borriello on our squad
We don't have a lot of options up front, so Conte hasn't had a great deal of choice this season; there are basically two target men on this team, Qtube's characteristics make him a bit of a tweener. Today, Conte obviously wanted a target man late in the game because we were having trouble breaking them down off the dribble, and needed to continue to have an aerial threat in the box for set pieces, crosses, etc., when Matri was subbed.

Conte is flipping out after nearly every goal we score these days, this is the most crucial time of the year. Did you see him celebrating in the stands with Storari last week? He's losing his mind every week, we're on the cusp of something very special, and it's great to see.

None of this means that Borriello will definitively be staying, nor does it mean that he was the one who orchestrated the transfer in the first place - especially given the fact that GM tried to acquire the player before Conte was our coach!

You have a problem with treating your beliefs and opinions as fact. You need to spend some time in the realm of science, where facts require some proof.

It's possibly a scudetto winning goal, dude, of course they celebrated like crazy. I don't see how you think that you can read anything from that.
OK even if you negate that fact, look at Contes embrace , look at how many points could have been gotten by not playing or starting borriello this season yet Conte INSISTED he play and sometimes start. Over Del Piero for Shits sake! If that doesnt prove that Conte wants him here than I dont know what does.

Well of course Conte wants Borriello to do well for the club. Shouldn't we all want to see him develop (Barzagli-esque) into an important player for Juventus?

The biggest thing is that the goal was part of the title race. The fact that Borriello has struggled, or that he's had a tough time from supporters, just increases the relief from certain people wondering what he's getting paid for. I'm sure he's liked, no reason why he shouldn't be.

If someone could provide a video of the post match celebrations, please do.

I forgot that Marotta tried to sign Borriello even before we had Conte. Good point :tup:

So youre saying that playing and starting borriello over a still fit and scoring Del Piero doesnt show that?
