From what i remember Del Piero started the feud with Inzaghi because every time Del Piero was working hard to get into a position to shoot and as it passed the goaler Inzaghi would always go and hit it in just a couple of metres before the line. Infact when Inzaghi scored Del Piero never used to celebrate. If it was not for Inzaghi Del Piero would be on like 208. Also whenever Del Piero got the ball he looked for his team mates if they had more chance or scoring while Inzaghi shot even though he had 1 in a million chance of scoring. This pissed off Del Piero and began complaining and as BD said they had fights in training and Moggi and Co. had to choose between selling a symbol to the club or selling a player and getting trezeguet instead.
You can guess what they choose

Can't believe nobody mentioned this:
Lothar Mattaus vs Diego Maradona.
These two true giants of modern era battled twice for the greatest prize on earth.
Diego many be greatest individual talent that graced the world but Lothar symbolized the very notion of team ethic that we often associate with the Germans.
Personal spats:
Voller vs Rjikaard. Forget Totti, Rjikaard is the Original one.
Position wise:
Baggio vs Zola
A classic case of two geniuses battling for one spot in the team. Never had the coach who had the creativity to harness two brilliant maestro. After all, Saachi is the authentic Mister I do it my way that Crapello strive to become. Unlikely for Crap, he only possess half the intelligence of his mentor.
Notables: Del Piero vs Totti, Viera vs Keane, Lehman vs Kahn, Ronaldo vs Rooney,

Veron vs Sorin (Villarreal game showed everything)
Veron vs Adriano (Adriano should be a happier person after Veron left, but I dunno why he still can't score)
Vicente vs Puyol (Vicente is still quite pissed about the Puyol tackle)
Fiore vs Camoranesi (Not sure if this 1 can be counted, but everybody knows Fiore's character anyway, will be quite interesting to bring this up)
Oh let me add, anybody in Inter, the locker room is a soap oprea, any team that boosts a combination of Mihajlovic, Zlatan, Matrix and the lot will be very interesting
Capello with so many of his players complaining speaks of something, especially from his ex-clubs, particularly Montella who mocked at him
More to come......
