Del Piero has had more than just the 3 good matches in the '90's. Lets say at least a whole season and with his recent performance as a 3/4, behind the strikers, he is proving to be that versatile attacking player.He was unlucky, when he picked up an injury in the late ninties and on his return, fans expected him to perform miracles.
And no, if you look at recent Italian teams performances in champion's league, you can actually see that Italian teams have a good record of passing from the group stages and advancing towards the 1/8, 1/4, 1/2, Finals.
Not Italian teams, just Juve and Milan. Rest are shite.
Those two are living on past glories as it is.

He had the odd chance. Toure played awesomely though. Saying that, everyone did.
Yeah and i was impressed with that Ivory Coast defender too.
Juve were too mechanical in their movements and it took them ages to get the ball roling.
Arsenal just did what they do best ; BAM BAM BAM SHOT ! A very fluid way of circulating the ball up field.
Well done Arsenal. And looks like my prediction of a Barca-Juve Final is fading away (For this year.)

Yeah, Eboue. He looks awesome- wonder what will happen when Lauren returns. Maybe he'll play right midfield.
I'm still going Arsenal v Barca.
If not, Lyon v Arsenal.

Juventus will win no doubt about that... They havent even been trying in Serie A as of late and are still winning.
Based off nothing more than hype and Juventus dominating shit teams.
As soon as they came up against Arsenal they got their asses handed right back to them with bows and whistles by an 18 year old.
Lest we forget that they only beat Werder Bremen because the keeper f*cked up. They got dominated even then.
Sit Bobo, sit. Good dog.

They also had an undefeated season not too long ago, what's your point? Oh, you don't have one because you don't have a clue what you're on about.
Arsenal being in sixth place in the Premier League doesn't mean they aren't better than Juventus. Did you not just see Juventus get whooped? I did.
Yeah, true. Two legs. They'll have Nedved back. Oh, but wait. They won't have Viera, Camoranesi or Zebina. Players who couldn't get the job done when they did play.
But I guess they're not even trying, right? Foolish.

Milan have featured in the champions league final twice in 3 years, thats pretty glorious even if they havent won it.
They also carry decent Italian players; Gilardino, Nesta, Gatusso, Pirlo, Ambrosini...
Milan are a great club, now and in the past.
and how about everyone drops the pathetic fellatio remarks, it's not winning any arguments.

haha, 'not too long ago' sounds like living on past glories 😉
can you honestly say Juventus played with 100% commitment and ability in that game? you couldnt because they didnt, they were poor, they just didnt look interested at all, no pressing, no urgency... nothing, and because of that Arsenal were able to perform brilliantly.
On the whole i dont think Arsenal are a better team than Juventus, they were today because they were at their best and juventus werent.

I agree with you Df02... Arsenal had a great defensive plan while Juventus didtn seem like they wanted to play at all
