Another great performance by Nicola, I swear I would never swap him even if we were offered Cannavaro. :D

Well deserved extension Legro and Happy birthday. :)

You and I think alike. I wouldn't trade Nicola with Cannavro, not at all.

I have always trusted this man, and I believe he'll offer more in the future.

Legro couldn't get much worse from before, and he was certainly capable of better than that based on prior history. Perhaps he sees this as his window to make amends for his Bidone d'Oro play at Juve and prove his worth. Forza Legro. I am definitely proud to have him on the squad this season.

Legrottaglie: We Are A Tough Team

"Today it was tough, against an in-form team that played with three attackers and took advantage of the wingers," he commented at the end of the game.

"It wasn't easy for us, but we showed once again that we know how to suffer."

The former Chievo Verona player hailed Alessandro Del Piero for the winning goal and not only.

"This win must be dedicated to the captain, after weeks where he fought against these rumours," explained Legrottaglie. "We're happy, as we did not concede a goal and Buffon was great on a save. We're really a tough team."

Juventus are now all alone in second place.

"It's nice to be up there, because you live a different atmosphere," admitted the defender. "Whoever was there can understand. This team has champions who are used to being up there.

"However, even though our objective remains that to finish among the top four, we will annoy others. And so far we are succeeding."
:D, I'm loving Nicola even more now.

I can't believe I'm saying this but he's playing incredible. The last time I saw this level of play from him he was playing for Chievo. With him playing this well and Juve's defense gelling overall I'd say that in January they should bring one midfielder and that's it. Frankly I wouldn't go too far either. Marchisio is already theirs. Just call him back.

Imagine he would have gone to Genoa,Besiktas or any other club he was linked to.I remember that the management wanted to get rid of him as soon as possible in the summer.Why didn't get the deal through?Because of Nicola wanted to stay or because the fee was too high?However,I was one of the few who wanted to get rid of him but honestly I'm really happy to have him in the squad.He is a player who also sits on the bench without any big trouble.Players like this are great for the squad-spirit and Ranieri is an admirer of spirit.So he is at the right place at the right time.
