Capello was horrible.

With the squad he had (probably strongest squad at that time in Europe) he couldn't make a semi final.
i'll never forgive capello those two return legs against arsenal and 'pool. we tried and did so little on both occasions, any of those matches was worthy of juventus.
Capello did what Guardiola is doing at Bayern atm, stole two years of European success from a great group of players.

I guess my sarcasm is not easily detected recently.

Liverpool were so average and under Benitez, makes me sick whenever I remember the way we played back then when he had these players "Nedved, Del Piero, Zlatan, Trezeguet, Emerson, Vieira, Zambrotta, Cannavaro, Buffon, Thuram, Mutu" etc .... Oh and the Bremen match :lol::lol:
The best goal ever!

A pretty damn good comparison.

But as much as I hate Guardiola and his style of football...what Capello had us playing (with that monstrous team we had) was truly beyond pathetic. And those horrible CL campaigns :inter:
It was horrible to watch and we went out to inferior teams with him.

Definitely he wasn't a great coach for us as the team he had should have went further in Europe.

Zebina wasn't bad at all season 05-06, he was tough to beat and decent offensively.

Look at the names:

Buffon
Vieira
Emerson
Zlatan
Nedved
Camoranesi
Trezeguet
Del Piero
Cannavaro
Thuram
Zambrotta
Mutu


Only Real Madrid probably were on par with these names, and Capello failed miserably.
I agree. It's just funny how you left out the only starter who doesn't belong in the list. He was shit.

To be fair, a lot of our players during Capello were past their prime. Nedved, Del Piero, Vieira etc. It was a pretty good team and we did play a bit ugly, but it wasn't as good as many Juve fans seem to think. Just look at our last season with Lippi, we were awful in all competitions. We could have reached the CL final in 2005 and win it, as we were in good form then, but we blew our chance against Liverpool.
