I'm sure we've all been in pain reading the sports section of the news lately. It looks like this pain will continue through the summer as our beloved team is still being torn apart, day by day, player by player, last season's fearsome Juventus now seems like a distant dream.
This time last year, we would laugh off rumors that linked our top stars to other clubs. Sites like tribalfootball.com constantly provided us with the "joke of the day." This time around, everyone's telling those old jokes, but without a single Juventino's chuckle.
Given the sad mood, I think we should all vent and find an outlet. However I personally think that we should steer away from one form of outcry; We shouldn't be bashing the same players and coaches whom we've shared so many good memories with.
Therefore, let's celebrate the good times. Let's look at the positive and put our energy into supporting the new team that will take Juve back where it belongs.
..................
I'll start off with Thuram, the man who in his first season helped get Juventus back to winning ways with her first scudetto in 3 years. It was the season that saw a dramatic facelift to la vecchia signora when she (surprisingly) went on a spending spree where Buffon and Nedved also joined.
My fondest memory of Thuram was his reaction to scoring against Milan in the first leg of 02-03 season. In a counter attack, he ran the length of the pitch and slotted home a perfect assist from Del Piero. He could hardly believe it let alone the rest of the players. Even Buffon joined the celebration and ran all the way to him (almost like he did with Grosso's goal against Germany)
..................
EDIT:
What good memory do you remember? (About any player who left Juve recently or will most likely leave.)

Note: The purpose of the thread is clear. Please don't post verbal diarrhea about Juve's ex-players.
