This is a huge plus to Inter....even though Cannavaro is having a good year most of the defenders are pretty old and vulnerable and Zambrotta is clearly the best defender for Juve and could be the best in Italy at the moment. |
Juventus has played without Zambrotta a couple of times before this season and replaced him with Balzaretti even though he isn't of the same caliber as Zambrotta is. I'm pretty sure Federico will cover up pretty well for Zambrotta in tomorrow's game on San Siro. So, Because of Zambrotta's injury we will probably see either Federico Balzaretti or Jonathan Zebina instead of the Italian national team defender, Sure, Balzaretti is a younger player than Zambrotta and may be nervous and all these things before a big match. Just like you say, He's got some good older players with alot of routine, Cannavaro & Thuram in the back who can help altogether with Buffon, So I hope there won't be any problems for Federico. Chielini is most likely going to play tomorrow, on his old spot which Balzaretti has played on pretty constantly under the time he's been injured, since the Fiorentina match when he made his first real appereance. If any unexpected changes pops up, then I would guess that Blasi will play instead of Chielini, He's done that before.
I'm predicting a very tough battle on the midfield where Vieria and Emerson have to win againt Cambiasso and Veron. Veron didn't play last time the teams met eachother, 2-0 to Juventus on Delle Alpi. The midfield is a place where you have to win to provide offensive players with chances to create something offensivly. This is where I think Juventus has learned since the last time they visited Milano, when they played against Milan and lost 3-1. They lost everything on the midfield and couldn't do anything to the Gorilla. I certainly hope they've learned something since the last visit in Milano. Once again, the midfield is essential..
Being a big player and score in the big matches is important for every single team out there. Adriano showed this against Milan in the Milano derby a couple of months ago. You can always create a bunch of chances, But if you don't score, then you're nothing in the end. This is Juventus problem at the moment and they need to settle down and think about why they can't score goals on their chances anymore. It's a major problem. But if they start scoring on their chances they will have a great oppurtunity too win against Inter. David Trezeguet has to start scoring too, He hasn't scored since the Ascoli match which we won on 18 minutes after 3 goals by the Frenchman. I'm also hoping Zlatan Ibrahimovic will play good, because he didn't play any good last time we were in Milano, It's now that we should be shown the greatness of Juventus!
Now let's hope for a fair, intensive and dramatic match, Let's hope Juventus wins this one so we can concentrate even more on Champions League and our next opponents in that tournament. But first, let's win against Inter!
Forza Juve.
