    Yeah but Roma are in much better form and we'll also be distracted by the CL games against Barca, I hope we can do it but I said on Friday that I thought whoever was top tonight would win the scudetto and that hasn't changed.

    I think Inter will end up winning the league by one point. I can see them winning all of their remaining matches, while I think Roma will drop points against Samp and win the last three games.

    I actully think that besides Samp, Roma have it easier. Lazio are still hurting and will be trying to win for pride and safety against Inter, Sienna and atalanta are fighting for safety too where as Calgari, Parma and Cheivo are all pretty much safe and have nothing to play for.

    Much tougher run in for Inter imho.

    The sections of Juve's new stadium will be named after former players.

    Apparently Buffon, Del Piero, Trezeguet and Camoranesi could all play in a stadium that has a section named after them!

    No Brady. Bad form.

    Maybe. Did any of the other listed play fewer games for Juventus than Brady?

    Wikipedia says he played 76 times.

    Ah, if it goes by appearance then that's alright. My friends in Turin say that Brady is a bit of a legend over there still.

    They should name the toilets after Ronnie O'Brien :D

    Would that be down to the fact that they stuck with the club when they were relegated? Given that there are far "greater" players that the likes of Trez to play for the club?(the likes of Platini and Brady spring to mind).

    I bet none of them ever do, though.

    Partly, but not totally. They have all given great service to the club.

    Platini is already on the list. And Trez is the club's all time top foreign goalscorer and one of the all time top goalscorers over all. There aren't many greater than him.

    You think none of them will still be at Juve next season?

    It'd be sad to see Alessa go. The word is so horribly, disgustingly overused now but the only word I can summon to describe him is legend.

    The word is overused but Del Piero is one of those who really deserves it.

    I hope he stays for at least one more season, when hopefully the team around him won't be so useless.

    Buffon to Milan
    Trez to Lyon or Milan
    Del P to MSL
    Camoranesi to West Ham

    I think there's a good chance none will be at Juventus next year. There's a lot of dead wood to be cleared and Buffon could bring in some much needed cash, plus be relatively easy to replace given his injury-ridden contribution this year.

    I'm sorry but those are ridiculous. Especially Camoranesi to a potentially relegated West Ham.

    Trez to Milan is a massive possibility. His agent has said it a few times.

    Sorry, what? Replace with who? He's still the best goalkeeper in the world. If we were to sign someone like Marchetti or Lloris they wouldn't be as good and would use up most of what we'd get for Buffon because they're younger and their clubs value them highly.

    Yeah, maybe :)

    Camoranesi will surely go somewhere. Buffon would have been a Milan player four years ago had the sh1t not hit the fan for them also when Juventus were relegated. I think he could go this year. 23 league appearances last year, 21 this. I'm a big fan, but if the right offer came in I'd let him go, and it could be Milan.

    There's a slim chance of "the right offer" coming from Milan!

    Anyone like to hazard a guess as to why AC Milan are 13-5 to beat Palermo away tomorrow night? Are they missing some key players or something, have 20 euro freebet was going to use it in an accumulator with Utd to beat Spurs and City to beat Arsenal at the weekend.

    I probably has a lot to do with the fact that Palermo haven't lost at home all season.

    And Milan have 5 CB's out either injured and suspended.

    wouldn't be surprised to see albertazzi in the squad if not starting with Thiago Silva. if not Oddo will play CB.
