ALL THE TIME JUVENTUS XI

team_gigi.jpg
Gianluigi Buffon - GK
There were only 2 real contenders for the position of Goalkeeper in our all time XI but fan favourite Gianluigi Buffon won out over another Juventus stalwart, Dino Zoff. Costing a whopping £32.6 million, Gigi is still the most expensive keeper in football, and arguably the best. Since transferring from Parma in 2001, he's won over the hearts of the Juventus faithful with 9 seasons between the sticks, including a stint in Serie B when the club were unjustly demoted during the Calciopoli trial. Rumours have persisted about an imminent move to Manchester United or Arsenal, but it seems Gigi is going nowhere....for now! Here's his top 10 saves


team_thuram.jpg
Lilian Thuram - RB
Hey Bobby, what's the French for 'I can play anywhere in defence and make it look easy'? Bought from Parma along with Gigi, Thuram slotted in first at right back, and later in the centre and the rest, as they say, is history. For most of his Juventus career, it seemed Lilian had read the script for how the match was going to play out, such was his composure on the ball and reading of the game. I could go on forever; Instead, have a look at the maestro in action: [URL="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5k6t6JVMtPk"]Click here for his best bits[/URL] | U


team_scirea.jpg
Gaetano Scirea - CB/SW
Libero. Captain. Legend. Hero. Innovator.The greatest defender of all time. Ours. It's hard not to get carried away with the superlatives when talking about 'Gai', but looking back at his history with Juventus and reading the many quotes about the legendary Juventus defender, you understand just why he was so loved. To sum up just how us Juventini feel about Gai, i turn to another Juventus legend, Antonio Cabrini: "Men like Scirea no longer exist. He was always ready to give you a hand, not only on the pitch" Click here to see the great man in action

team_gentile.jpg
Claudio Gentile - CB
“Claudio Gentile would stand on his grandmother's head to get the ball.” Get the picture ? Hard man extraordinaire, Gentile is the defender that man-marked Maradona out of an entire game committing no fewer than 23 fouls in the match! 'El Pibe de Oro' made his feelings well known after the 1982 World Cup - Gentiles' response ? “Football is not for ballerinas.” The man they called 'Qaddafi' (He was born in Libya) was the hatchet man to Scirea's surgeon at the heart of the Juve defence and one of the greatest defenders of the game.

team_davids.jpg
Edgar Davids - CM
The formula for Edgar Davids is simple: Pace + Power (x Pugnacity) = Pitbull. The glasses and dreadlocks ensured that Edgar was one of the most recognizable faces in sports, while earning himself a reputation as the ultimate midfield hard man during a career that included stints with Ajax, Ac Milan, Barcelona, Tottenham Hotspur and those we don't speak of. He left Juventus under something of a cloud after refusing to sign a new contract, but we still love him. Here's the pitbull in action


team_plat.jpg
Michel Platini - AM
Despite a difficult first season, the man they called Platoche came to be the inspiration behind the all conquering Juventus side of the 80's - During his 5 seasons at Juventus, Platini was named European Footballer of the Year no fewer than 3 times (1983, 84 & 85) and took the Capocannoniere title in 1982–83, 1983–84, and 1984–85. His club honours included The Coppa Italia, European Cup Winners' Cup, UEFA Super Cup, 2 Serie titles, European Cup and the Intercontinental Cup. Not bad for a player that was written off his first season in Serie A. Here's a compilation of his greatest moments.

team_zidane.jpg
Zinedine Zidane - AM
It'll be hard to forget that head butt, but before Zidane had a moment of madness in the World Cup final, he was the most talented player of his generation. A wizard in the midfield and linking up superbly with Alex Del Piero, Zizou pulled the strings for Juventus following a £3 million move from Bordeaux; Just 4 seasons later he would be sold to Real Madrid for a world record £46 million. Despite his relatively brief tenure in Turin, his ability to dance around defence's and visionary play making earned comparisons to the previous legend in this list, Michel Platini. Here's a compilation of the master - Yup, he was that good !

team_ned.jpg
Pavel Nedved - LM
If i had my choice, i would have played Pavel Nedved in every position in this all time XI - So good is the man we call 'La Furia Cieca', that his sheer determination and dedication would have been enough. The moment that defines Pavel for me, was on a May night in Turin back in 2003- Gigi has saved a penalty and Juventus are 2 - 0 up - Nedved races onto a cross, splits the defence and blasts the ball past Casillas - To celebrate, he runs to the Curva, and kneels before the Gobbini. Priceless. Click here to watch that moment


team_trez.jpg
David Trezeguet - ST
Goal poacher, expert finisher and the highest scoring foreigner at the club, Trezegol, as he's come to be known, currently has 168 goals during his stint in Turin. His best years at Juventus have seen him playing alongside a certain Alex Del Piero, where the two have formed a lethal partnership averaging 20 goals a season. He was one of the few to stay with the club during Calciopoli, thus securing his status amongst supporters as a true Juventus legend. Here are a few of his many goals

team_adp.jpg
Alessandro Del Piero - SS
I am certain that Del Piero really never grows old" said a certain Diego Maradona; Never were a truer words spoken about 'Capitano' who, at the age of 35, is the clubs top goal scorer with 275 goals to his name (to date). Joining Juventus in 1993 and playing in the shadow of a certain Roby Baggio is never going to be the easiest way to start your career, but over a decade later, Del Piero remains the ultimate symbol of the modern Juventus. Trying to find one defining moment in such an illustrious career is tricky, so i went for my favourite three moments instead ! First off, here's that goal against Fiorentina secondly, that magic moment against Real Madrid in 2003 and finally the performance that got the applause of the madridistas in 2008.
 
Italy bana soka lao ni la kujipanga sana, na wanapokuwa tayari wameshajipanga basi lazima warudi na ndoo.

Kisha Milan wakabeba Champions League 2007 na Inter 2010.
Lakini tazama timu za taifa na vilabu kama za ujerumani, ufaransa, uholanzi na Uingereza, je zina mafanikio ya kitaifa na vilabu kwa miaka ya karibuni?

Forza Azzuri
Sempre Rossoneli
saluti zote umeongea pointi kubwa sana,mimi italy nawaaminia wanapotea wakirudi ni balaa,pata picha miaka ya 1999 hadi 2002 ktk champions ligi ac milan ilifungwa dk 90 mvua inanyesha na leeds lee bowyer yupo birmingham sasa 1-0 uzembe wa dida kukawa hakuna timu toka italy ktk raundi ya 2 champions ligi,angalia 2003 fainali zikacheza timu zote za italy,2005 ac milan final tena 2007 wakabeba.
 
Juve accept need to spend

Juventus general manager Beppe Marotta believes the squad requires improvement during the summer if they are to challenge for honours next season.


Juve are currently languishing in seventh place in Serie A after a string of disappointing results, including throwing away a 2-0 lead to struggling Cesena on Saturday.

Marotta told La Gazzetta dello Sport that to solve the shortcomings of this season the club needs to lure four big-name signings in the summer.

"Juventus need at least another four great players. Above all, people of experience who know how to better manage the most difficult situations," he said.

Champions League qualification is now the ambition in the remaining weeks of the season as the 2-2 draw at Cesena followed three straight league defeats at the hands of Lecce, Bologna and AC Milan.

That run of results has seen the Juventus supporters turn on manager Luigi Del Neri, who was quick to dismiss the backlash from the crowd, telling the club's official website: "The whistles? They are part of the game. Maybe let them applaud after the final whistle.

"We played well in midfield [against Cesena] and I know that this team can work well from now until the end of the season."

Serie A 2010 - Week 30 20/03/11

Juve 2 - brescia 1

Match Report from Football-Italia.net:

Juventus finally ended their winless streak and could thank a wonderful Alessandro Del Piero solo effort, as he slalomed past defenders from the centre-circle.

The Bianconeri were in dire straits and entered the Olimpico to a chorus of jeers from their own fans after one point from four rounds. They were leading 2-0 at Cesena last week before Marco Motta's red card led to a 2-2 draw. Motta was therefore suspended with Vincenzo Iaquinta, Paolo De Ceglie, Felipe Melo, Leandro Rinaudo, Momo Sissoko and Fabio Quagliarella injured.

Brescia held Inter to a 1-1 draw last week and only a late saved penalty prevented their victory. Hitman Andrea Caracciolo sat out a ban with Perparim Hetemaj and ex-Juventus defender Jonathan Zebina, so there had to be a very new partnership in attack.

The Rondinelle had lost their last four visits to Turin, picking up a point in April 2001 with Roberto Baggio scoring against his old club.

A diving Alessandro Matri header was straight at the goalkeeper, while Simone Pepe drilled wide. At the other end Nicolas Cordova's free kick struck the side-netting with Gigi Buffon static.

The goalkeeper looked rather anxious, as he fumbled a set piece and had to flap the loose ball off Eder's foot.

Juventus took the lead with a wonderful solo effort from Milos Krasic. The ball was flicked up into the air by Matri on the edge of the box, where Krasic unleashed a fierce right-foot volley to surprise Arcari.

Brescia equalised just before the break thanks to some awful defending. There were huge gaps as the unmarked Eder was allowed to knock an Adem Vass cross past the on-rushing Buffon.

Alberto Aquilani's weak effort was easily smothered, while Giorgio Chiellini ran on to a ball over the top and was stopped by a well-timed Mareco tackle in the box.

Eder went close with a long-range screamer that whistled just past the upright with Buffon flying across the face of goal.

Alessandro Del Piero scored a sensational solo slalom, as he picked up at the centre-circle and dribbled through the Rondinelle jerseys before stroking it in at the near post with the inside of his left foot.

Brescia went down to 10 men as Mareco - already booked - blocked off Matri's counter-attack.

Luca Toni came off the bench and almost scored immediately, as his header from a corner was palmed out from under the bar, but the easy follow-up from a yard was wasted because teammates Giorgio Chiellini and Krasic crashed into each other.

striker wa Juve Alesandro Matri analaumiwa kwa kuwa mchezaji aliyeshuka kiwango haraka sana kiasi kwamba anaonekana kama ushuzi tu kwa sasa.

Wakati hayo yakitokea huko Turin, kwengineko mjini Milan Mshambuliaji Zlatan Ibracadabra ameiongoza vema klabu yake ya AC Milan kuweza kushikilia usukani wa Ligi kuu ya nchi hiyo kwa kipindi hiki cha krismas.

Forza Milan
