To Mitch,
I am new fellow here, I started supporting Juve in 1991 when I first saw them on TV. Anyway, I don't like to agree with your sentiments but also I acknowledge that Pipo is not a top striker. But he gives all for Juventus. I beleive that we need players who would die for this shirt, who won't leave this team when we don't qualify for the CL. This is very important. We also have to realise that most of the Juve wins resulted from Pipo scoring... Yes he couldn't find the net in the last games, but remember that we are human beings, and there is what we call a human factor. Human beigns are bound to loose concentration(form). Even you Mr. Mitch some other day you don't fill like doing your work, (if you are working). This is becuase on that day you are not on the right form and fortunately for you, since you are not watched by more than 50,000 faces, you can just go into the internet and relax, or sleep. But unfortunetely for players, if they are not on form they cant do what you can do when you faced by such a situation, and mind you they are being watched by rivals, reporters, "gamblers"(who placed huge amount of money on betting, die hards and so on and at that moment noone is in a compromising mood. So just put your self in that situation and I think you will rethink.
I have been checking this site for the last 3 weeks, and everyone wants Crespo. Tell you what, Crespo's heart is at Lazio. Also if we get him and he just perfoms like Pipo, are we going to sell him and buy another so called natural striker? We have the best team at least, lets not destroy it but make it strong to destroy the likes of boastful Lazio. I would be interested in how the most loved son DP is going to perform next season.
