Before Zidane was sold, juventus was a great and feared team, that domminated in europe and serie a.
When zidane left, juventus stopped doing that. We were an underdog when we went to the 2003 final. We never went close untill last year, when we were an underdog again.
Under capello, we had the potential to return to that status, but capello failed tremendously with such talented group, and calciopoli ended the team.
We got 2 legends. I'm happy for that. But we stopped having the status barcelona, madrid and bayern have today eversince.

They only stayed because they were forced to. Zidane was allowed to leave. That's the only difference... it doesn't make them more loyal at all. They would've been gone as fuck if it were up to them.
He left in the middle of the fucking transfer window with little warning because he couldn't get his way. It was a dick move and, even though it ended up working out best for us, he didn't give a fuck at the time.
Im just pointing out that if loyalty is such important criteria (which I'm not saying it should be) then those three all showed the same lack of it that Zidane did even though they knew they would be putting the team in a difficult position.

But in the end they decided to stay, so we can let them off.
Also it's the way Zindane sucks up to Real Madrid so much, that indicates to me that he sees Juventus as secondary in his priority list.
Henry left Arsenal for Barcelona, he is still an Arsenal legend, because he clearly loves the team way more than he ever loved Barcelona.

You cannot put Zidane in here while Davids, Tacchinardi, Deschamps and others in the legends section. There's a huge flaw in this.
In addition to him always mentioning to media (Spanish media) how Juve shaped him as a footballer, Zizou's transfer to Madrid made Juve actually dominate for years with the purchase of Nedved, Buffon and Thuram.
Anyone who followed Juve in Zizou's prime would want him to be remembered as a Juve legend. I understand the post-calciopoli fans not recognizing how influential Zidane to Juve was, but they need to also remember how a guy like Camoranesi (who I truly love) asked to leave the club when we got demoted to Serie B and still viewed as a Juve legend.

It was not the reason. But we could have rebuild with him, del piero and trezeguet up front.
The teams afterwards, never were close to how domminating we were in 95-00
We were bad 1 year. Wich was 00-01. 97-00 zidanes juve was THE team. Should have won that semifinal against united with the bad serie a season. Would have won the final
