He was great with Real, but not all of the time. There were some years after Del Bosque when the team sucked and couldn't win anything. That's when he started thinking seriously about retirement.
As for Juve, you know what his greatest match in his whole career is, according to him (or rather the journalist who interviewed him)? Guess.

He turned up about 8 times per season, usually in the bigger games, if we were away to Empoli or Piacenza he couldn't be assed to play, he would stroll around the pitch and not do much.
I agree Martin he wasn't great all the time, after about 2004 he lived off his reputation. What did he say his best game was for us? He was immense in the 1997 CL semi vs Ajax

No, like Emmet has said previously; Zidane despite of being one of, if not the best player of his generation was very often lazy and unmotivated here. Against lesser side he could've stayed at home. He was player for big games no doubt about that, but in Real he found a new challenge and worked hard for his place. He became very driven then.
