QUOTE (Danny @ Apr 19 2017, 10:41 PM)  As a football fan, part of me thinks Juve, or specifically Buffon deserves to win this thing. I hate them but you have to admire what they've achieved under Allegri - he's proved everyone (apart from me and Kurt) utterly wrong about him and he's taken Juve beyond Conte. Four teams left and it's anyone's at this point. +1 Aside from the Allegri bit. What exactly has he proven? That you can win with a top squad? |

What Juve is doing is something to be proud of, being the only Italian flag bearer in Europe and humbling Barca like that. Four teams left in it alright but only one has the ref on their side. |

Agreed. Juve deserve to win the Champions League this year. Solid at the back, effective up front; probably one of the strongest balanced sides in Europe.

I don't give a sh!t about what they deserve. This is Juve. Have they always been winning only when they deserve. F@ck em! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) I won't be mad if they win, but I'm not shedding tears either. |

Frankly speaking, I don't hate Juve. Sure, they're our rivals and all, but Inter ate the ones I truly detest and always want to see fail.
For Italian's football sake, as a fan, I'd like them to win. Also because I hate Madrid, too. |

There are MANY others who think the same way about Allegri as we do Oh, and how any Milan fan could entertain the idea of wanting Juve to win a CL is beyond me. Absolutely can't stand that team and their choker status in the CL is something that should be celebrated by Milan fans |

Then they're all wrong. Sorry, but you all are (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)
The guy could go to Arsenal (as looks likely now) and win the title and you'll find some way to discredit him. And I'm bored arguing with you all about it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) PS I don't want Juve to win, I just have respect for Buffon and he personally deserves it. You know, that 18 year old's HERO? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) |

Sorry Danny, but the scars from Allegri's stay at Milan still hurt. The sheer atrocities he committed while managing us cannot be overshadowed by whatever success he achieves.
Unless he wins a treble. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) |

He's a damn good coach, and he's only improved after leaving Milan. Not many coaches can deal with having their entire midfield ripped apart and given a brand new option. He's still managed to make a very capable side and have them fight. I hope he goes to Arsenal. I daresay he will school Conte and Pep in a couple of seasons' time. Poch and Klopp might give him trouble. He's still suspect against genuine defensive pressing. But I suppose all coaches are. |
