Zlatan has had a terrible season.
He hasn't scored in two months, the team isn't winning anymore.
And he has the worst timing in doing stupid things so I'm not at all surprised him screaming at another player during a training session.

I'm a Zlatan-fan, not at all a Juventus-fan.

When he first signed I found it exiting and when he scored 16 goals and won Lo Scudetto in the first season I was more than happy and ofcourse started to cheer for Juventus. A player always get higher status and becomes bigger when he plays in winning club so everything was going great.

This season hasn't. Why?

Like alot has posted, one reason could be that he is much more marked this season and the defenders now see him as a bigger threat. Another reason could be that it simply gotten too big for his head.
My intention is not to defend him. He has been horrible and if I would have been a Juventus-fan I would have been very frustrated that Il Capitano has been on the bench so many times.
Capello is obviously one of the best coaches in the world and has won a bunch of titles and I've been very happy about Capello's constant belief in Zlatan.
And they got away with it when they were winning, you can't really critizise the coach when the team's winning.
But now the critics speak out. Capello's choices is now wrong, and thanks to the journalist on La Gazzetta he should now be held responsible for the team's downcoming form.
But what about trezeguet, Vieira, Emerson, Camoranesi?
Especially Vieira which hasn't been at all the giant on the midfield everybody thought. And now he's fighting with Zlatan. Zlatan said something to him and he ran over to start a fight.

Who do you think would get te blaim if it was the other way around??
You got it...

I really hope Zlatan leaves.

There is no audience in the games. (Is Juve hated all over Italy???)
Juventus is one of the most boring teams in Europe and everybody saw against Arsenal that te team just isn't good enough.

If Zlatan is the reason or Juve is the reason of his poor performance I don't know but all I will say is: Henry, Henry, Henry.

Neglected in Juve - now the second best player in the world.

Oooh stop it already with the henry thinggy. You can't have all the best players in the world in one team.
Henry is a terrific player, when he came to Juve he did not perform wonders. They got a proper offer from Arsenal so they sold him. Even at arsenal he did not play well immediately. We had/have Del Piero, when we got him it was to fill in Del Piero's gap while he was injured. At the end of the season arsenal made a decent offer Juve did not have alot of money, Del Piero returned from injury.. Wise decision that we sold him. Its not like we have someone like Moratti paying all our bills now do we?

well good to see the honesty there that you are a zlatan fan and not a juve fan, also that you recognise htat he has had a terrible season.
personally i feel that zlatan's performances, attitude and ego have hindered juve this season. however i do not want to see him sold......yet.
if we give him the chance to show what he can do next season we may just reap the benefits of a player who feels confident that his club are behind him. it would also be great to see what he can do for a coach who does nt believe he is just a big target man who needs the ball lumped froward from defence for zlatan to chase. good players do not turn bad overnight, kaka had a shocking second season at milan, so lets guve him a chance to shine under a new coach, but on the understanding he is on thin ice with the fans and if he flops i will personally go and pack his bags for the journey out of turin

Appreciate the honesty. I think more people over here need to follow in your footsteps and admit they are only Del Piero fans, when everyone already know they are. Plus rep.

Maybe it is about time you too admit you are a Zlatan fan as well.

Isn't this the result of playing your Zlatan the highest numbers of minutes, regardless if he makes a good performance or makes his normal well-studied-by-defenders-out-dated-moves??

I think he did his best in Serie A last season, and he has no more to offer to the club that brought him from the almighty Netherlands league...

His best definition is "Obsolete", if you know what I mean...

I am respectful and supportive towards any Juventus player and have been a fan and supporter of the club since I knew what Juventus was. And I will react when I find a so called Juventus fan speaking excessively negative about the club or any of its players. That's all there is to it.

Let him in his own magical world, he thinks that bashing Del Piero is ok but it is not ok to bash Zlatan because he's a Juve player. In this magical world also, a Del Piero fan is a Del Piero fan but a Zlatan fan is a Juventus fan.

You know, I just had some fun, scrolling through 20 pages of my previous posts. the worst thing I said about Del Piero was this:
"DP to warm the bench".

I suppose that qualifies me as a basher. In many posts, I bashed you though, Azzurri7, because I consider you and I and our views on Juventus totally different.
You have to understand one thing though. Bashing you is not bashing Alessandro Del Piero. You are not Alessandro Del Piero, no matter how much you'd like to think so.

I'm off. Have fun.
