Dida v Buffon:

That's not correct.

Dida vs Buffon -------> Buffon by far ( Dida has good size, Buffon has felkine reflexes )
Yeah, I did that comparison, and it was so ridiculous I wrote :LOL::LOL::LOL: Dida's just a prone-to-errors meathead

Kaladze vs. ( Your left back ) ----------> Kaladze Zambrotta did not play as a left back against us, if he had, the game would have been over in 90 minutes, because he would have been unable to attack, and Sheva would have kept him busy all night.
We're not talking about the final here, we're talking about overall, and when Zambrotta plays left-back, he rips everyone apart in both attack and defense.

Ferrara vs. Maldini --------> Draw They're both read the game well, Ferrara is stronger, but Maldini is faster.
I think you're wrong here...thank you for trying to please the crowd, but Maldini's far more reliable a defender.

Davids vs. Seedorf ---------->Draw Davids is faster, and wins back the ball more often - Seedorf gets more assists, and has a good long range shot.
I'd agree with you here, and it's hard to compare the players...sorry to all the Edgar lovers, but Seedorf can be quite deadly whereas Davids' shots are...crap :down:. Though in terms of DM, they don't get better than Edgar.

Rui Costa vs. Nedved---------->Draw Main difference is Nedved scores, but Rui a force when he's inspired.
:LOL::LOL: That's the point...Rui can be useful when he's inspired, whereas Nedved is always inspiring the whole team with his fighting spirit.

Trezeguet vs. Inzaghi--------->Inzaghi Inzaghi is always getting caught offside, and doesn't work hard, he just camps in the other team's penalty area until the ball comes toward him...and...gol. That's all he's there for, can't do anything else.

The way trez has been playing these last few months has shocked a lot of people. Something is wrong, and you all know it here.
As said before, Trez was injured for a good chunk of the season, and especially in terms of medium-long range shots, Trez is much better. Headers, I think they're pretty much even. Maybe I should put a player like Miccoli or Di Vaio in this category, as I think both Inzaghi and Trez are both lazy players who need too much support from their teammates, whereas the other two are very useful (DV not yet, but wait till next season :D)

But the foundation of my reasoning is solid, with more time you will understand.
I sincerely hope our good owner Martin will not give me enough time to come to grasp the very core of your wisdom Mr. Sabertooth. In fact- rather than that I'd like to have my finger nails removed without anasthesia.

That should hurt less than seing Pippo mentioned as having R.v.N like class.

Much to my dismay however- I feel compelled to tell you that Juventus made the same kind of sweeping changes against Barca and Man.U as Milan did in their first game. It was our first too (Barca). Add to this that Lippi actually had new players to integrate whereas Milan was much more like the team of last year. Since it appears you're passing judgement on the back of our friendlies- I thought it only fair to grant you the same courtecy.

Your mention of a Juve 2-1 loss without a fit striker away at San Siro against Milan as some kind of testimony to Milan's big match ability (a game in which Dida, incidentally, was named 'man of the match'- sort of a pattern there sadly) speaks of your propensity to change any situation into a scenario that soothes your train of thought. Something you direly need of course, since you're claiming that Milan is just better than the team that beat you to Lo scudetto by 11 points. A team that has improved by leaps and bundles in the market, as opposed to Milan that just got older.

In any case- I hope that our exchanges will soon come to an ever more belated end, as your analytical contributions to this board is only too easy to overlook. I'm wondering though- if you have made your presence felt in either of the Milan forums on the net. Forums I frequent quite often like Devils Mania or MilanMania.. or even Xtratime?

If nothing else- it could be a learning process for you if I'm sure :).

Best regards

Godspeed.

you'r talking about lucky :D and your words contrast your own words. you said that teams are in better condition in the start of the season and then you said you taught La Coruna a lesson. but that was also at the start of the season. when we beat you it was something like 10 games after the Serie started

Sheva's goal was in fact legit. From the linesman's position you see from the replays that he had no way of telling that Buffon's sight wasn't blocked. It looked like that from the side.

But if everything went like it should have- the goal deserved to stand.

Perhaps it would be better for Juve if the goal had stood. Maybe the players would try more to get into the game, and maybe we would have won.

Ah, all those maybies :down:. We'll never know

We have more character.
Tell me...how many times did Juve make a comeback to take the game at the death? Countless? Hmm thought so... I only remember Milan scoring about three (important) late goals in the whole season... now I know this is a narrow statistic, but I think one of the greatest measures of a team's character is the ability to dig in and not give up.

against Chievo, but the goal didn't make a single difference
against Udinese, but that was an own goal by Sensini
against Ajax

Now let's talk about Juve...

Chievo
Brescia
Bologna
Udinese
Perugia
Roma
Inter
Como
Parma
Deportivo
Barcelona

In the second clash, both teams knew what to expect from each other because of the first clash. And both teams were in better condition than they were at the start of the season.
What a load of tripe... apart from the fact that Juve didn't know what to expect in the first game, but won it anyway...it's proposterous to say that these teams don't know eachother. They've had pretty much the same core players for several years now, and I'm pretty sure the coaches know the opposing team equally well, maybe even moreso with Ancelotti, for obvious reasons.

I don't rate Coruna very highly, we taught them a lesson last season. The Barcelona game was just a very lucky one for you. I remember a headline from a Spanish football after that game, it ready "Juve: poco futbul, mucha guerra".
Yes...and Spanish newspapers are so objective and without bias.

I don't care about the whole of Serie A.

Head to Head, one on one. Your team against mine, that's what I meant.
Okay, now you're really contradicting yourself. As far as I can remember, so many of your arguments have said "you guys lost to this team, but Milan beat this team...Milan are invincible." Make up your mind...and I'll give you a hint while you're at it. When comparing football teams, it's not very useful to compare three games in a season, especially since the results were a win each and a draw.

I'm aware of the fact that man u are at a more advanced stage in their preseason. I'm not equating them. I wouldn't insult Milan like that. Inzaghi is as good as, if not better than Van Nistelroy in the box
:LOL::LOL::LOL: You mean 1 metre away from goal!?! I haven't got anything against Inzaghi, in fact he was one of the first Juve players I liked, but to compare them in terms of technical ability is an insult to Ruud.

You guys had one main goalscorer the whole season (Inzaghi), whereas we had several players who were banging them in.

Milan:

17 Inzaghi
9 Pirlo (mostly penalties)
5 Shevchenko
4 Seedorf
4 Rivaldo

Juve:

16 Del Piero
9 Trezeguet
9 Nedved
9 Miccoli (we've got him now :fero:)
9 Maresca ("" "" :fero:)

Apart from that, we scored 9 more goals than you in the season and conceded one lesss :thumb:

A milan fan to talk about controversial??? You were the team with the most penalties for and the least against in Serie A last year. Galianni was the president of FIGC, and your owner is the Prime Minister of Italy, and probably the most controversial italian. Your team was relegated because of match fixing. And you come here to talk about controversy??? :fero:

I didnt say Juventus dont get awarded dubious penalties. We do, just like Inter, Milan and Roma. But Milans gets the most, by Inzaghis excellent skills in watersports.

And I think Milans attack is overestimated, not underestimated. They won 4 of their 2nd Group Stage games in CL by 1-0, including 2 games against Lokomotiv, in one of which you only scored from the penalty spot.

Milan suffers of the Ancelotti syndrome, something Juve too had when Ancelotti was in charge. His teams tend to start the season briliantlly, but somwhere at the middle of the season they start to run out of steam, playing worse and worse. The same thing happent to Juve when we lost the Scudetto to Lazio a few seasons ago.

This is not a comparison based on class. It is based on NATURAL GOAL-SCORING ABILITY.
...and if you look closely- Van Nistelrooy has always scored more than Pippo. Always contributed more, and is the better allround player. Who would you rather have in your side?


++ [ originally posted by walu_ex ] ++So these friendly games are meaningless...????
Of course they are. This entire US trip is noting but money in the bank. The players themselves talk about being on vacation. Obviously- a Juve vs Milan game has added spice, but I only brought up the issue because YOU passed judgement on Juve's ability on the back of our friendlies, whereas you wanted none of it when others mentioned Barca's victory. Intrinsically flawed logics on your part.

++ [ originally posted by walu_ex ] ++courtesy
Neat :D . You will find more typo's I'm sure.

++ [ originally posted by walu_ex ] ++Bet you had to dig deep for that one. He had to make one or two good saves, but we were the ones playing a flowing attacking game. He was probably named man of the match because we deserved all three points in that game and your cowardly tactics threatened to compromise our endeavours...
No- it's not digging deep. In my first reply in this tread where I tried to be reael nice with regards to you as a new user of the forum, I said that Juventus lacked depth last season. As such- Milan were STRONGER than us in that department. hence- it was a blow to Juventus that we had to start an important game with Trez and DP so far from matchfitness they couldn't be started, and DI Vaio + Salas fully out of the game because of injury. That's rather a lot.
It is of almost antrophological interest seing how you deduce the reasons for Dida's man of the match award. The journalists on location for the live telecast cast their votes, and he won it. Because of Juve's 'negative football' they chose to award... Milan's goalkeeper...? yeah. Nedved and Zalayeta compromised your endeavours alright, but unfortunately Dida was on the absolute top of his game which won you the match. I figure you didn't watch it?

++ [ originally posted by walu_ex ] ++When we played the first game in Turin, the first goal you scored was a counter attack.....
Both of the goals were counterattacks thank you :rolleyes: .
What's the point of this comment?

++ [ originally posted by walu_ex ] ++About you guys missing a striker, it's not like Juve strikers cause us any problems anyway..... I have the CL tape if anyone wants it I can mail it to you. Trezeguet played so badly, many believed his Juve future was in the balance. Remember?
Admittedly neither of them scored in the final. Great point, but I thought you would have figured how the lack of service might have left them in a dark spot against admittedly the best central defence in the world? Missing one stiker is one thing. Missing 4 is another.
DP's had two assists in the Delle Alpi victory anyway, and apart from parma Milan is the team he's scored against the most. You're arguing like a pre-teen now, and I have a growing sensation you know it. Get in the game.


++ [ originally posted by walu_ex ] ++Speak for yourself.
Oh- I thought everyone have been busy telling you how absurd your reasoning was/has been?



++ [ originally posted by walu_ex ] ++Milanmania, but, there is very little to discuss over there.

It seems fans of Rossoneri are still basking in their glory.

Stuff like that...
My condolences. I emphatize with you... although on second thought it seems you'd fit right in :).

Va bene.

Your Captain is good at watersports.....


Your captain....


your most influential player.....
His name is Nedved and is not our captain. Haven't ever been and will never be. Rank and file is DP, Conte, Ferrara, Tacchinardi.

And yes- Nedved does dive. Many players do, and you know that from your own team I suppose.

yeah edgar davids i was just to say the same thing.

this guy say things,,,and later is saying the opposite. Speaks things that are too weak to prove his theory.

I definitely will stop to post, because im debating with someone that dont have any idea of what he is talking about.

"Because the second game was 20 games later and both teams supposedly must be in better shape".........man, there are a lot of factors that can change a game.
