Juventus Thread

It was funny that Miccoli had to take his penalty 3 times. I bet he was rather frustrated.
 
Can't believe it, especially after the 1st half display, I thought Micco held his nerve rather well but to come back from 2-0 down, shades of Milan against Inter ;)
 
depor got trashed 3-0 by valencia, lets hope juve can do the same :twisted:
 
Yes, infleuntial Mauro Silva was sent of in the depor game.

Anyway we still played kind of crap against Brescia. Although again we somehow managed to win :D!
 
it's the mysterious way of football isn't it :)

anyway, we must win over milan next week or it will be the end.
hope the best
Forza Juve
 
It's all set up for an epic encouter at the Dele Alpi, Juventus will have to be at there best :D

Forza
 
I think that Deportivo will passed to the quarters, in Riazor Depor played better than Juventus and players like Valeron or Luque play a great match, in Delle Alpi 1-1
:D
 
I hope we get 2 quick goals against you guys, the most imperative thing will be to start well and we are more then capable ;)
 
although inter have everything on the pitch they lack everything out of it. they need a new board a new coach and a new system.
 
That wont work, theyve had about 20 coaches in the last 10 years and none have worked. Only once in 1997 they won UEFA cup.
 
Probable line-up: Buffon, Thuram, Ferrara, Montero, Pessotto; Tacchinardi, Appiah, Camoranesi; Nedved; Del Piero, Di Vaio

Other squad members: Miccoli, Chimenti, Mirante, Legrottaglie, Urbano, Boudianski, Chiumiento, Konko, Palladino
 
We should also play Miccoli, for Appiah:

Midfield and on:

------------Tacchi

Camo-------------Nedved

-----------Del Piero

-------Di Vaio- Miccoli

Now juve should concentrate on the scudetto and tim cup since we are out of the CL :(

may be this loss will be a good motive to win the next game against milan
 
03/09/2004. Juventus manager Marcello Lippi is very disappointed after the defeat with Deportivo La Coruna that put an end to the bianconeri's Champions League.

"Tonight everything went wrong," the manager said. "We had prepared a different kind of game but we didn't manage to do what we wanted".

"We lost our most important player after five minutes and they scored at our first mistake," he added. "When these things happen you start to think that may be it's just isn't meant to happen".
SA Italy

a BAD day :(

Marcello Lippi claims he won’t give up his chase of the Champions’ League trophy despite Juve’s shock early exit to Deportivo La Coruna.


“Above all the difference between the two teams was psychological,” insisted the Coach. “It isn’t our best moment, but we nonetheless felt ready to win this.”


Alessandro Del Piero’s calf strain after just six minutes of the match was a massive blow to the side.


“If you prepare a match in every detail and within 12 minutes you lose one of your most important players to injury and then concede a goal, it ruins everything.”


“We tried to fight back and believed it could happen, especially with three or four great chances in the second half, but we obviously regret not being able to play this match to the full as so many players were missing.”


The captain was only the latest in a series of setbacks that ruled out David Trezeguet, Enzo Maresca, Igor Tudor, Gianluca Zambrotta, Alessandro Birindelli and the suspended Antonio Conte.


“Del Piero felt a massive pull in his calf and it will take a few days before the tests can show the exact extent of the injury.”


With both first choice fullbacks missing, Lippi started with an unusual line-up that saw Nicola Legrottaglie in front of a three-man defence.


“That system was undoubtedly introduced just because of the lack of other defensive options,” confirmed the tactician, “and Legrottaglie was meant to hold back Luque after he gave us so many problems in the first leg.”


“We really did not expect to concede a goal so early. All the incidents piled up on us one after the other and that sapped the confidence out of the squad.”


Lippi had always maintained that the Champions’ League was their main objective after losing the Final to Milan last May, but they are now eliminated before the Quarters.


“It will be for another year and we will now look ahead to Sunday’s match with Milan,” assured Lippi.


“We really wanted to win this trophy and it undoubtedly doesn’t help confidence, but this team has always done well to put defeat and glory behind it and look forward to the next challenge.”


Alessio Tacchinardi was understandably upset at the final whistle, but still went to salute the fans in the home end.


“Unfortunately we conceded a goal very early on and it really knocked the wind out of us,” explained the midfielder.


“It’s a great shame, as we tried to fight back and felt that we had the ability to turn this around.”
