Truly. After the injury, he wasn't the same Del Piero any more..anyone who thinks he's the same player, is stupid and/or in denial. He has quality still, but not the genius that made him who he was. All you have to do is look at his set-pieces..there was a time when a freekick from the edge of the area and him stood over the ball meant real danger, now it's a warmup for the ball boys.
Ibrahimovic is a better set up man than him and Trezeguet is a better finisher..he has to now play second-string or move on, change in the management setup and age catching up to him has done the damage.
He's still a legend though, no doubt about it..I'm glad I'm not the one looking him in the eye telling him his days at Juventus are over...because deep down, I don't want them to be. Nasty situation and it wil inevitably end in tears.
