Actually I think Trez will be subbed with Zala to rest him ahead of the CL match. That is of course if we're winning, cos otherwise Capello will keep him on the pitch.

hmm...yes Glenn you probably have a better point there.

BTW, I want to write an article about Emerson, I have an idea on what the article is about, can you provide me some data and statistics on him?

Ibra to sit out Empoli tie Friday 9 September, 2005

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Juventus boss Fabio Capello is being tipped to rest Zlatan Ibrahimovic for Sunday’s trip to Empoli.

Although the Swede is in great form, following his two goals on international duty in the past week, there are concerns over his health.

The former Ajax player complained of severe stomach pains, which subsequently hampered his breathing, after Sweden’s win over Hungary in midweek.

Ibrahimovic insisted that he was fine following his superb injury time strike, but Capello may opt to rest him anyway.

The tactician is expected to start the striking sensation on the bench despite his importance to the side.

Given that Alessandro Del Piero is currently injured, Capello will probably select David Trezeguet and Adrian Mutu in attack.

The Romanian is in good form himself after he returned to training this week following his two goals for his national side.

Ibrahimovic should be recalled to the starting line-up for Wednesday’s Champions League tie at Club Brugge.

Meanwhile, Inter boss Roberto Mancini is believed to be thinking of resting Adriano for their trip to Palermo on Saturday evening.

Its not professional to be bitter and call the coach incompetent, especially when he took a team who had problems qualifying for CL and made them Serie A winners.

Very low class from Del Piero, And as far as the goals go, he may have scored the most goals but allthru the season he was very inconsistent and played horrible at times.
well sometimes wen play well and get subbed doesnt do great for ur confidence overall. and to score these goals he scored last season was great for a player who was subbed 28 times. Am not defending his act of frustration, but his outburst didnt effect the team in any way, actually it only effected his place this season.
There is nooo player that is consistent in all the games, but he had some great performances that helped alot.

I would like to see zlatans proffesional act after he gets subbed after every game.

He will react the same or worse probably, Zlatan is very emotional so he could explode..lol but that has nothing to do with the argument.

"You can say many things about Del Piero but you can't attack his professionalism."

I can. Del Piero isnt perfect, some of you need to stop making him into a saint and Zlatan into a devil.
