I'll repeat what I said in the commentary thread:

- Buy defenders who can pass. We can't go on with defenders like Chiellini who just blast the ball and give away possession. What he did for Palermo's first goal was unacceptable. Unmarked by anyone he gifted them a throw in. If we want to have a muscled guy like Giorgio, we'll desperately need someone who can pass the ball and feel comfortable with it at his feet. Like Lucio in Inter
:star:

Thank God. Thank god someone knows what I've been talking about since 1 year now. We are never ever going to improve nor win a thing so long we don't have defenders capable of passing the ball.

You can all love Chiellini as much as you want, but he will never be half the player Terry is or Carvalho, Vidic, Puyol, Nesta if he doesn't improve his passing.

The way our defenders blast the ball out and give our opponents ANOTHER chance to attack is disgusting.

Before we change our coach, before we fix anything, teach those mofos the defenders how to pass the ball instead of blasting it out each time we are under pressure.

I don't want to blame this on Zacc. The team was as ball-less with Ranieri and Ferrara as is with him.
I'm not saying we lost because of him today, our problems are far bigger than that sadly. But he is certainly not the type of coach you need to achieve things.

We have all been complaining about long balls and useless passing out of the back for 2 years now.

I've got serious serious concerns about 4th place now. The bottom line, plain and simply is that we just dont deserve it, and in all honesty looking at the fixtures we'd be lucky to get 5th or 6th. But that means ANOTHER year out of the CL, and ANOTHER year where we sign average players. That isn't going to change any time soon. The only thing that is going to save us IS a buyout of this club. Hopefully Elkann does the right thing and sells up to someone that can make us a threat again......

It's ok having defenders who can hit long balls if you have strikers who suit that. It would be great if we had Drogba or Ibrahimovic up front but we have Trezeguet and Del Piero :lol:

No was was he brought in to achieve anything. I consider him a caretaker until the end of the season. The team has gone FUBAR. There's nothing that can be done until the end of the season. While the World Cup takes place, hopefully some of the players and the board is fired and a real change happens in Juve that will revitalize us.

No, I'm not talking about the random passing here. I'm talking about "blasting the ball out each time a player is behind Chiellini or any other defender of ours". This gives our opponents another chance to either score or create a chance.

I'm not talking about passing that opens up a play, I'm talking about a passing the ball to anyone doesn't matter how but just not to blast it out to corner, out, just keep the possession and stop shitting their pants when a player is 10meters behind them.

This Juventus...collectively as a team is complete garbage!

The only coach that can change things at Juve is FABIO CAPELLO, a coach who demand respect and is notorious for benching so call star players.

I'm not afraid to say it, our mediocre showing started ever since Del Piero return from the injured list and Ferrara decided to change the winning formation (4-2-3-1) to fit Del Piero into the team.

Look at Juve Juventus? no cutting edge at all upfront what so ever, nobody attempting a shot from outside the box. The only thing I saw was players passing the ball around the box before losing it.

This team need a revolution, too many useless players who don't know what it means to fight for the Juventus shirt.

Del Piero? I don't mean to be harsh because I like him but even though his heart means well and he thinks he can do it his body is just not repsonding and he's simply too slow to be considered a starter. C'mon if our team is build around a 35 years old Alex we're in a lot more trouble than I expected.

1995 a 21 year old prodigy Del piero replaced the 28 year old superstar Roberto Baggio and we all know what happen after that. 2010 we have another prodigy (Giovinco) who's 22 and has already shown he's ready to lead Juventus. It's time Del Piero to accept his role as a bench player and let the younger hungrier Giovinco lead Juventus into the future.

By achieve I meant to reach the 4th spot at least. This objective is certainly in doubt here.

It's not about DP letting Gio play. It's about the coach having faith in him and actually playing him. Sadly, hardly anyone plays him.
