Juventus Legends: Alessio Tacchinardi

By: alessio | Comments 16 Comments

About two weeks ago I did a profile on former Juventus captain Antonio Conte and with Juve’s mercato pretty much wrapped up, I figured to do another. This is on a personal favorite of mine, in fact, my namesake on the Offside. Many of you know my real name is Aaron. Where does Alessio come [...]

Juventus Legends: Antonio Conte

By: alessio | Comments 21 Comments

We have such legends playing for us now that sometimes we forget some of the older ones. The irony is not lost on me that when I was growing up and started following La Vecchia Signora in the late 90s we had the best midfield in the world, and now are struggling to fill it. There was Zinedine Zidane, Edgar Davids, my personal favorite Tacchinardi, Di Livio, Deschamps, and of course Antonio Conte. These were the legendary midfielders who led us to 3 consecutive Champion’s League finals in one of our glory eras. It seems that Del Piero has been “il Capitano” for us forever, but he was not our captain during this glory era, taking over in 2001 after recovering from his knee injury. That honor went to Antonio Conte.

I don’t know too much about him, but this vid helps to inform us on our new defender. He probably won’t see [...]

This Stanks; Midfield Midmarket Musings

By: alessio | Comments 39 Comments

I know, I know, it’s horrible. But when you’ve got a name like Stankovic….it just lends itself to puns like that. I’d like to take credit for it, but it was the title of a blog posting after one of Dejan’s shitty games this season. Little did I know I’d be ripping him off 6 [...]
