PotD: The Juventus Family

By: agiamba | November 19th, 2009
   

So with Thanksgiving (for us Yanks) and the Christmas/Hanukkah/Kwanza/etc season coming up, people are all about spending time with their family, until they realize how much they cannot stand constant interaction, and head to the bars. It is no coincidence the night before Thanksgiving is the largest drinking holiday in the United States. So, without further ado, while you can’t stand your family, here’s some photos of Juventini with their family that is sure to make the men jealous, and the women all swoony about Juventini spending time with their children. Pictures after the jump.

The Iaquinta family. His sons facial expressions are pretty priceless.

If you look on the left, Camo’s son is definitely copping a feel on his mom

I imagine one of these kids was born in Argentina or Mexico, and the other maybe in Italy. Talk about an identity crisis, being Italo-Argentine-Mexican.

Brazzo and his Spanish wife, Esther. His son looks straight from “A Christmas Story.”

marchisio
Marchisio and his wife, Roberta. She is a Toro fan, her dad played in the Torino Primavera and then had a middling career of Serie C and Serie D clubs, though supposedly the rest of her family is Juventino.

grygera
Between Buffon’s girlfriend, Nedved’s wife, and Grygera’s, I need to go to the Czech Republic. Soon.

And though this has nothing to do with the above photos, this will make many of you nostalgic:

    I have been getting a lot of Serie A games here in Australia, and for some reason they keep showing Parma, and Lanzafame is really finding his feet there! He has scored a couple in the past few games and his freeekick taking is magnificent, always spot on, maybe one to look out for, very very versatile as well.

    Alessio, Yeah we ll find out. Did expect them to win today. Tomorrow is a must win for us and hope they slip with fiorentina.

    Two-day match bans are pretty standard for swearing at the ref. Let's if Maicon "magically" gets a one-day ban that will allow him to play in the Derby d'Italia.
  • Jorid
    I love the bullshit the media spews during the international breaks. This is a sentence that made me LOL from an article on Yahoo Soccer saying "Ancelotti insists he will not leave the Blues in order to replace current boss Marcello Lippi." The best part is this sentence: "Ancelotti has been linked with replacing Marcelo Lippi, who is expected to return to Juventus." Oh boy. Sometimes I think journalists have the easiest jobs in the world.

    “Does the Premier League tempt you? No, not really,” he exclusively told Calcio Italia magazine.

    In an in-depth interview with the football monthly, on sale today, the South American explains how desperate he was to join the Old Lady of Italian football.

    “To play for Juventus was a childhood dream,” he noted. “I have admired the Bianconeri since I was a young boy, since before I started my professional career. “Juve and I is a long history of love. We have had some conversations before but nothing concrete came off until this summer.”

    The Turin giants completed his £22m transfer following months of courtship and after Bayern Munich made a late bid. “Bayern Munich is a big club and they have good players,” he noted. “As with other teams, my manager discussed the possibilities but they did not come to anything.”

    Now in Turin, the former Werder Bremen ace is hungry for honours at home and abroad.

    “I want to win as much as is possible,” he added. “I came here to win things and I hope I can help the Old Lady to put some more trophies in the cabinet. “I am convinced that here is where I will play most of my football.”


    Only time will tell if he's telling the truth, but grande Diego!!
  • Jorid
    j, the players in the black and white pic:
    Top row from left to right: Ciro Ferrara, Jurgen Kohler, Fabrizio Ravanelli, Robert Jarni, Angelo Peruzzi.
    Bottom row from left to right: Pietro Vierchowod, Angelo Di Livio, Alessio Tacchinardi, Dider Deschampes, Gianluca Vialli, Alessandro Del Piero.
    Coach Marcello Lippi.
  • j
    yea, just receive that bad news too, seriously there is something wrong with the club, either the docs, coaching methods or the facilities, we seem to be cursed....lucky we got four strikers...
  • Jose
    Apparently Trez is injured, he wont play for 30 days.
  • Mo
    My favorite trams playing in one match is just simply amazing! Finally something interesting is happening in Jeddah, I got my stalking gear ready!!!
  • wonderful pictures. Lol at Vialli's hair. We miss Nedved so much.
  • ooBia
    according to the article you posted above about al-itti vs. Juve:

    this guy, Antonello Cuccureddu, was al-itti's coach during the 02/03 season. who is a ex-juventini.. interesting

    i am planning to go with my brothers (we are a family of 4 all with huge love to Juve, youngest is only 11 years old :D). and definitely taking some pix :D
  • j
    can anyone post the names of the photo? i can only recognise peruzzi, deschamps, di livio i think and ravenelli, i need to watch more past videos.
  • Anthony
    Great pics! That last one brought back some great memories. Vialli's hair is priceless lol.

    Poor Marchisio is married to a Toro fan lol.

    And who is that in the blue and red dress with the black hair in Cannavaro's family pic?
  • Great pics alessio! Up until now (shame on me) I didn't even know Trez was married. Guess he keeps his personal life pretty low-profile (that, and the only real "fanatic" watching his games is his mom).

    Also cf the last picture, I'm nostalgic indeed. You just couldn't resist slipping one in with Tacchinardi huh? :P
  • Calisi
    gazzetta showing del piero on the left wing for this match, any truth to him playing? also, what is the status on marchisio's injury and recovery?
  • Faisal
    Hey Alessio, thanks for the heads up on the game... Gonna be in Saudi then so I'll definitely be there... I'm absolutely ecstatic, I can't wait! And will definitely send pics.
  • KJ
    Im surprised how average most of these women are..no joke
  • Jorid
    Jack: Is his wife's name Anna? Is she a bot? LMAO. Camo does look a bit like Taboo. Just Mauro's face looks wider than Taboo's.
    Nnahoj: Married?! Kids?! Just kidding. I'm 19 so no/no.
  • Jack
    Grygera = Basshunter???
    Camo= Taboo (Black eyed peas) ???
  • Nnahoj
    Wonderful! I love the pic of Alex and his son. Makes me feel for one of my own...

    One thing I like about the Italian footballers is that a lot of them end up marrying their long time sweethearts, rather than dating a bunch of models. Look at Cannavaro for instance; with his looks and fame he could get pretty much any woman he wanted, but he married his long time sweetheart, who he honestly is better looking than. But that's love...that's true love.

    P.S. Is anyone on here married and/or has kids?
  • Ivo
    Yep, you nailed it Ale. As I said, she is super smokin :) When I lived in Rome a lot of the Romanistas were teasing Totti that Blasi wanted to marry Zebina first but he refused so she settled for Totti. John, I don't think he's gay though/
  • John
    alessio, where i come that means a man is gay. does anyone know if he is?
  • Jorid
    HAHAHAHAHA. Ale I think I just broke a rib laughing too damn hard. I knew Zebina is a bachelor and I thought maybe the man had decided to finally settle down now that he still has a bit of hair left on his head before he goes bald, but I guess it isn't the case lol.
  • agiamba
    Yeah Jorid, they grew up together and I think Pavel first asked her out when he was 14 or so. Thanks btw, you mentioned the 3 players I couldn't remember myself.

    Gaetano no, Ranocchia is a center-back. He'd compete with Cannavaro/Legrottaglie, if Canna is around next season.

    ooBia, that is awesome. Are you going to go? If so, take pics, we'll post them!

    Ivo, this is Zebina's wife. (He's a "life-long happy Bachelor with no desire to marry")
  • Ivo
    Yep, that has to be 94/95 cuz Jarni only played for Juve that season. Man that picture did get me nostalgic, Vialli looks like a Florentine painter with that goof hairball. How about a picture of Zebina's wife? Wasn't she super smokin'?
  • o_man
    Gaetano,I am not usually impressed with players in low level teams having all this praise around them because of one good season but I have to admit...Candreva seems like he has potential.He would be perfect for our formation and as he can give Camo a much needed break.Camo always runs out of gas at the 60th minute and so having Candreva will be really helpful.
  • ooBia
    not only im from Saudi Arabia, Al-ittihad is my home town team. :)

    Thanks Ale for a great set of pictures, its always nice to see a different side of our Juve heroes :)
  • Jorid
    Rinaldo: The second to the left is Jurgen Kohler. The player to the left of Peruzzi is Robert Jarni I think? The one down looks like Fusi or Vierchwood. Can't remember exactly who.
  • Jorid
    I remember watching this and all the jokes "Le Iene" used to make about ADP going to Cepu. ROFL.
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v...
  • Gaetano
    Great photos alessio! Ok so I liked the way that candreva played during the friendlies a lot. There has been a link with us. Does anyone think we should buy him and if so why? Also alessio u seem to like ranoccia. Haven t seen much but if we buy him, won t he be competing with caceres and grygera?That is assuming we get rid of zebina as well. Someone suggested we also bring criscito back but in that case where would grosso play? I think we should t pick up anyone until molinaro,tiago, and zebina go. So assuming the sales or trading or trading plus cash, who are our ideal candidates. Also I think someone on the past mentioned how sissoko has played very little and cost a fortune. Would we be better off buying someone more compatable with melo?
  • Rinaldo
    Yeah, that is Tacchinardi, Jorid. The only players I don't recognize in that pic are the left-most person in the bottom row, and the second and fourth in the top row. Vialli with the hair is just weird.
  • alex
    ferrara looks like chiellini a bit there and viallis hair is beautiful. of course the white feather takes the biscuit
  • Jorid
    LMAO. Ale I second your thought about going to the Czech Rep. And correct me if I'm wrong, but haven't Pavel and his wife known each other since they were like 12? MAJOR LOL at Vialli's hair. What season is that pic like 94-95? If so, between Il Soldatino and Didier is that a young Tacchinardi? Looks just like him.
  • agiamba
    Any fans in Saudi Arabia....rejoice. Juventus is playing a friendly against Al-Ittihad on December 30th.
