No Andy, it is not ONLY Zlatan:
1. We lack depth
2. Trezeguet's repetitive injuries
3. Nedved's injury
4. Nedved returning from the injury as another player
5.
6. Zlatan's suspension
This is our latest blow in the face

referring to Del Piero is ridiculous, how could he be partially responsible for a possible failure when he's scored 12 goals playing just about half Ibra's time?!3 matches is fair and Ibra should take responsibility and YES Andy if we lose the Scudetto, his absence will have cost us some points. Should we or should we not expect much from him? If he is worth a Juventus shirt, he should act as a Juventus player, I mean what if Del Piero or Trezeguet had done the same?
Zlatan Ibrahimovic is undoubtedly one of the most gifted players I have seen recently, but being such a Jerk, such an idiot is preventing him from becoming a real "Fuoriclasse"...He's no champion, I'm sorry.
Alright olkiller, lets just use Ibrahimovic as a SCAPEGOAT for this season's failure, that would make a lot of sense. Lets blame him for all the losses we have suffered this season because of poor team play. Lets blame Zlatan for the midfield being extremely poor throughout the season. Lets blame Zlatan for our poor performances against top sides when needed to step up our play to get a result. Lets do all of that because that is what essentially we are doing when we blame Zlatan for "losing us the Scudetto."
Pathetic.
If we have to rely on one player so much perhaps we don't deserve to win the Scudetto.

olkiller, please don't make this thread a Del Piero againt Zlatan debate...
If Juve wins the scudetto, its becouse all of our players contribute, if Juve lose the scudetto, its becouse all the players lost it, its not only about Zlatan or Del Piero

That's just like saying that without Del Piero's 24 points and his 172 goals we wouldn't even holding 5 scudetti and be 1st in Serie A.
Zlatan has shown this shitty attitude for a VERY long time. I'm sure that's what prompted FIGC to act so harshly. Yet, he deserved his suspension and should learn from it if he wanna be a champion some day. I'm surprised he was not taught discipline and fair play at Ajax Amsterdam...
If one thing is certain, it's that he's light years away from Van Basten's class. I hope he will react quickly and help us lift that damned scudetto.
When Zidane got a 3 match ban in CL he took responsibility. When he was sent off against Saudi Arabia, Aimé Jacquet completely ignored him and denied him the traditional tap in on his way back to the locker-room. Even Totti considered retirement because of his behaviour against Poulsen. Baggio, Del Piero, Pelé, Van Basten...This is class. Please Del Piero teach ZI some self-control stuff!

Using Zlatan as a scapegoat would be shameful. He's young and arrogant, he can still learn from such avoidable mistakes.
Don't misunderstand my point. I'm just saying that Juventus players are not Roma or Inter players. And I agree with you, whether it is a victory or a defeat, it is a team thing. So those who bash Del Piero AND those who bash Zlatan are very wrong.
@ Espectro: I'm not turning it into a DP Vs Zlatan thread, they're just the most exposed players. That aside, I'm not a member of your absurd community so shut up yourself, will you?

Juve stunned by Ibra suspension
Thursday 21 April, 2005
Juventus claim they are amazed and worried by the three-match ban given to Zlatan Ibrahimovic and will appeal, while Milan see their Scudetto chances boosted.
“We will lodge an immediate appeal against this decision,” revealed director general Luciano Moggi. “The Disciplinary Commission’s findings were like a bolt from the blue.”
Ibrahimovic was caught on camera striking out at Ivan Cordoba during Wednesday’s 1-0 defeat to Inter when the ball was in the other half of the pitch.
The Swede was also involved in another incident during the same game, in which he tried to head butt Sinisa Mihajlovic.
“We really weren’t expecting this, especially as none of the newspapers or television programmes had really zoned in on that situation,” continued Moggi.
“We hope to have the ban reduced on appeal, as if it stands then he would be suspended for the May 8 encounter with Milan. I can confess that we are worried.”
The Bianconeri will already be without the injured David Trezeguet and possibly Jonathan Zebina for that Scudetto showdown, so to lose their top scorer as well would be a heavy blow.
Milan, on the other hand, are celebrating their stroke of luck and can now look to the final weeks of the season with more confidence.
“There are five games remaining that are worth three points each and one that will be worth six points,” said Rossoneri director Adriano Galliani.
Galliani is often at the centre of controversy because he is both in charge of Milan and the head of the Lega Calcio, which includes the Disciplinary Commission that suspended Ibrahimovic.
“We have also suffered at the hands of some controversial refereeing decisions and over the last two games have had two good goals disallowed, but I think that as Lega Calcio President it would be inelegant of me to discuss that aspect of the game.”
Milan are still in the running for the Grand Slam of Serie A and European titles, but with a growing injury list must balance out their efforts.
“I don’t know if we’ll be tired by the time that match with Juve comes around, but I am very happy to be in the Champions’ League semi-finals. After our exit to Deportivo La Coruna last year I won’t make predictions, but I can say that the Scudetto showdown with Juve will not be decisive.”
The San Siro is set to be sold out for Tuesday’s first leg match with PSV Eindhoven, as over 72,000 tickets have already been snapped up by eager fans.
“Pippo Inzaghi could be on the bench against Parma this Saturday, while Manuel Rui Costa, Massimo Ambrosini and Andrea Pirlo are on the road to recovery for the PSV game,” added Galliani.
