Which is odd, TBH.

I mean what would they have to do to get a regular starting assignment?--score 5 goals every match?:down:

Diego · Oct 22, 2005

Yes and that's why I hate Capello! And miss Lippi! He's the king

He would have benched zlatan 2 games ago and used del piero-trez and mutu. I'm sure!!

Is Vieira out for this one?

If he is, winning will be slightly harder.

Midfield as ever, will prove decisive.

That said, whatever Capello does selectionwise, I'm expecting us to score at least 2 goals. We need to restore that winning mentality.

Prediction

Lecce 1 - Juventus 3

Yep. And while I still have a soft spot for Lippi, the man was reaching the end of his effectiveness as a Juve coach when he honorably stepped down.

Juve_Kosova · Oct 22, 2005

Thats right.. i dont miss lippi at all!

that said, i hope DP will start in this game, and im sure he will!

anyway, i will be able to watch this game on tv

even if i could see it on pplive..

Forza Juventus !

Well you have a point there. Del Piero was a starter even when he was not performing. But lets look back into the team that Lippi coached and the team that Capello is coaching:

Lippi:
1- Del Piero, Trezeguet, Kovacevic, Salas
2- Del Piero, Trezeguet, Miccoli, Divaio, Zalayata

1) Salas was always injured, and Kovacevic was hmm how do I put it.....
2) Del Piero during that season had several injuries and did not even play regularly. On the same time, Di vaio was getting 20 offsides per game.

Now Capello:
Del Piero, Trezeguet, Ibrahimovic, Mutu, Zalayata

Please be fair now, do you really think that if Lippi was coaching such a team and a player was not perforimg he will keep him playing. I know Lippi believes in Del Piero, and to tell you the turth I really see where he is coming from. They go way back. Del Piero was like a lucky star for Lippi. They were together for like 7 years and have won the scudetto 5 times together along with CL trophy and several CL finals, Intercontinental cup and other trophies (around 13 if I am not mistaken).

Capello is coaching a team that has 5 top class forwards. Saying that Ibrahimovic is better than Del Piero is not true, and vice versa. One day Alex is on form the other Zlatan. One day Mutu is one form the other its Trezeguet..

Eddy · Oct 22, 2005

Do you know the formation that Lippi used to use with Alex before at Juventus ?
What was his most common formation-tactic ?

Bjerknes · Oct 22, 2005

We have heard assurances like this before from media and fans alike, yet for some reason we are always disapointed...

I'm not believing anybody until I see the actual teamsheet...speculation like this tends to be wrong with Capello as coach.

i know the class was different between then and now...however i remember when trezi first came he was scoring almost everytime he entered the field.And week after week he was left out for the sake of alex.
So i dont think that lippi was a saint compared to Don.Fabio.

Akerman · Oct 22, 2005

Funny how people have lost all faith for Zlatan after the Messina & Bayern-games. No one even seems to be considering the statistics that Ibra and Trez have performed the best out of all duos this year.

The problem in the Bayern match was not Zlatan, nor Trez, it was Nedved, Camoranesi, Emerson & Giannichedda.

tassard · Oct 22, 2005

Lippi was a saint for DP lovers.But he was a great coach and as one said before, he had done many things with DP.But what has Capello done with Zlatan???They know each-other only one year.

ZAF3000 · Oct 22, 2005

Trezeguet arrived at Juventus during season 00/01 Lippi was not the coach. It Ancelotti was at that time.
Trezeguet was a sub for Inzaghi NOT Del Piero. Trezeguet Cannot be Del Piero's sub he is a finisher not assistant striker.

When Lippi returned the season after, Inzaghi was sold during the preseason and Trezeguet and Del Piero became our main forward power. Trezeguet became top scorer in the Serie A with 24 goals tied with Hobner.

ZAF3000 · Oct 22, 2005

We, or let me persnally say I, did not lose faith in Ibrahimovic. He is a terrific player but for the SAKE of the team, Del Piero should start when he is ready and performing better than Zlatan. Never the less Zlatan should continue to play shorter periods till he find his form. Keeping Zlatan on the field while he is not performing, the team is losing and he is delaying and losing the ball is not wise. Its even not good for Zlatan himself. Fans will start to get annoyed by him.
But lose faith.. Thats a bit big, especially after last season.

I agree. I also want to see Zlatan benched for a while. But people even seem to be considering selling him.

ZAF3000 · Oct 23, 2005

SELLING WHO? Selling maybe the most promissing young forward in the world.. I don't think so.. He is getting an extension till 2010

Luigito · Oct 23, 2005

Maybe Viera is for the MIlan clash in San Siro
