He was fasting when we played against Udinese
He was fasting when we played against Zenit

nobody cared then when Momo was giving MOTM performances, so plz can it with the "unprofessional" BS...it has also been revealed that Momo has created a nutrition plan with Dr. Riccardo Agricola to sustain himself during this period...if that isn't professional behaviour, then I don't know what else is

It is forbidden by the club. They have a special program, for example:
they aren't allowed to play football outside with kids during some periods, they arent allowed to leave the house after 23:00 during a time period, etc.
But I don't think that there's ANY club in the world who'd say that you cannot fast during fastingmonth in Islam religion

If it is forbidden by the club, why the club don't fine them?:eyebrows:

Anyway, to stop this...

FORZA SISSOKO and come back stronger, when this absurd thing ends

This is a much more complicated issue than what most of us believe it to be. To put it simply, Ramadan is a very big deal with muslims and whether we like it or not, it is considered a great blasphemy if one does not fast.

Muslims fast at a very young age, traditionally between the ages of 10-12, fasting is something that has been implemented on them by their parents, society, and peers. They grow up this way; no matter what profession they choose later in life, not fasting is never an option.

We may view this as unprofessional and pointless, but this is something he takes very seriously and we are obliged as human beings to respect that. This is not a matter for discussion, if you don't believe in the Muslim faith, then you may keep this to yourself, but it is unacceptable to bash Muslims and their traditions no matter how strange they may seem to you.

Personally, I am a Greek Orthodox Christian, I'm not a Muslim, but I truly believe it unethical to insult a player for following his religion, we should understand that somethings are simply none of our business, religion is a personal issue and youmust therefore remain considerate to other people's feelings when speaking about such a delicate subject.

Mniha mennak shriik.

Are you(and the other 9 people) a key employee for your company?Because I wouldn't care so much if some of our u-20 players were fasting.
i don't even know if i should answer that... coz no matter what i say it won't make sense to you... just that you know i'm very much a first team player...

all of us here want Juve to win... nobody wants otherwise... all i want to say is that Momo is a human just like us and he has his own principles... we must be considerate enough to respect that... so cut him some slack... over the past coupla days Momo has been criticized so much that Molinaro has taken a back seat...

Relax bro, I didn't say to kill him for what he does.:angel:
I simply find wrong for the team this thing, and I have every right to mention it.
and I didn't say that you said that or you haven't rights to express your opinion :). I've just said that your point of view would be quite wierd for the sensible world

but I agree with you in a part that it's bad for our team

Those were night games, so he was able to eat prior to the match. vs Cagliari he was not.

Dudes all of you just shut the fuck up and leave Momo live his life as he has been living it for all of his life so far!!!! Nobody here is qualified to judge momo!! Its a religion its not something that you can just say "o ok today we are playing inter or catania i will forget about God and stop doing what i have been doing for the past 26/7/8 (i dont know how old is he exactly)"!! I dont know why do we even talk about this!! These kind of posts should be banned on this forum!! Or better there should be "no religion talks on Juventuz.com" just like you baned Goal.com posts!!! Fuck!!!

I don't think anyone knows if Sissoko was awful yesterday, because we're playing today.

oustanding performance today...pushed forward, dominated the middle of the park and made some pretty slick passes...10/10 would not be enough for today's performance

Are you serious?

Anyway,Sissoko is not fasting according to the latest reports!He says he is a muslim and prays 5 times a day but he can't do Ramadan becasue if he'd fast he couldn't train hard.

Sissoko: «Non faccio il ramadan»

Il maliano della Juve: «Sono musulmano praticante, ma non osservo il digiuno»
TORINO, 24 settembre - Giallo Sissoko: il maliano osserva o non osserva il ramadan? Dopo le indiscrezioni apparse su alcuni quotidiani di oggi, la fede del centrocampista della Juventus è diventata uno degli argomenti principali dei dibattiti sportivi. Ma non c'è nessun mistero, perché lo stesso Sissoko in un'intervista a “Tuttosport” del 12 settembre aveva spiegato il "problema" del ramadan: «Mia moglie Sokona e mia figlia Aicha sono la mia vita. Sono musulmano praticante, prego cinque volte al giorno, ma non osservo il ramadan perché non potrei allenarmi duramente. Con Legrottaglie parliamo spesso di religione: siamo un cristiano e un musulmano, ma c’è un dio unico. Porto avanti iniziative benefiche nel Mali: stiamo costruendo un orfanotrofio e una scuola».
