Serie A Week 16 - 18-12-2011 (3:00 p.m.) - Juventus Arena - Turin Referee: Andrea Gervasoni Antonio Conte relaxed ahead of Novara meeting despite first-team absentees Juventus coach is not too downbeat about the prospect of facing the newly-promoted side without a number of his first-team regulars Dec 17, 2011 Juventus coach Antonio Conte has played down the impact of the club's injury and suspension list ahead of Sunday's Serie A encounter against Novara, claiming he is relaxed about the prospect of having to tinker with his squad. Arturo Vidal and Leonardo Bonucci are both suspended for the game, joining Mirko Vucinic in the stands as the Montenegrin striker is currently out injured. Giorgio Chiellini could revert back to centre-half in the absence of Bonucci with Paolo De Ceglie set to start on the left side of defence, and Conte is confident about trying out different players. "It is the first time we have to do without three first-team players and we have tested out a few options. I am relaxed because whoever is called upon to do their duty will give their all to prove themselves," the former midfielder told reporters during his press conference. "This is what I expect from my players, especially those who are further down the pecking order as they know what order is easily changed." Despite being near the top of the league for the whole season, Conte is cautious of Novara who were promoted in the summer. "I victory tomorrow would be very important for us, but we have great respect for Novara who are doing very well," he added. "I know them well, having faced Novara last season in Serie B when I was in charge of Siena. They want to achieve something special and it's up to us to ensure that doesn't happen. Novara deserve to be in Serie A." Juventus currently sit top of the table on goal difference ahead of Udinese, who face Lazio on Sunday evening. http://www.soccerway...regular-season/

Serie A Week 16 - 18-12-2011 (3:00 p.m.) - Juventus Arena - Turin Referee: Andrea Gervasoni‎ Conte changes for Piemonte derby Dec 17, 2011 Antonio Conte is keeping Juventus on their toes ahead of the first Derby di Piemonte in 55 years against Novara. “A victory tomorrow would be very important for us, but we have great respect for Novara, who are doing very well,” said the Coach in his press conference. “I know them well, having faced Novara last season in Serie B when I was in charge of Siena. They want to achieve something special and it’s up to us to ensure that doesn’t happen. Novara deserve to be in Serie A.” Conte has to reshuffle, as Arturo Vidal and Leonardo Bonucci are suspended, joining the injured Mirko Vucinic in the stands. There are reports Paolo De Ceglie could take left-back, returning Giorgio Chiellini to the centre, with Alessandro Del Piero and Emanuele Giaccherini stepping in. “It is the first time we have to do without three first team players and we tested out a few options. I am relaxed, because whoever is called upon to do their duty will give their all to prove themselves. This is what I expect from my players, especially those who are further down the pecking order, as they know that order is easily changed.” Juve are joint top of the table with Udinese, who face a very tough test against Lazio this weekend, so could well be the lone leaders by Sunday evening. “We mustn’t look at the table, even if we are doing extraordinary things. We want to end the year knowing our work has gone beyond the rosiest expectations, but the important thing is not how you start. It’s how you finish.” Conte was also asked about reports Juventus are challenging Milan and Paris Saint-Germain for Manchester City striker Carlos Tevez. “Others within the club take care of the transfer market. I have many responsibilities.” http://www.soccerway...regular-season/

Diego Della Valle orders Guido Rossi to disclose every detail of the investigation into Calciopoli Fiorentina co-owner wants the former FIGC commissioner to outline exactly what happened during his enquiry into the fixing scandal which rocked Italian football. Dec 16, 2011 Fiorentina co-owner Diego Della Valle has called on Guido Rossi to publicly reveal every detail of his investigation into Calciopoli. Just a day after the peace talks arranged to smoothe relations between the clubs involved in the corruption scandal which rocked Italian football in 2006, Della Valle posted a letter on the Viola’s official website urging the former Italian Football Federation (FIGC) commissioner to disclose everything he knows about the investigation. "Guido Rossi first of all has to publicly explain what really happened,” he wrote of the enquiry which led to Juventus being demoted to Serie B and Fiorentina, Milan and Lazio being docked points. “With regard to the meeting which took place yesterday at the headquarters of CONI, I want to thank president [Gianni] Petrucci for the invitation and the attempt for peace. Even if it has not achieved the desired goal, it has, however, opened a path. "The shared desire of all in wanting to pacify the members must first pass through a clear and honest analysis of what happened in his time. “The protagonists of that time must publicly clarify [what happened]. And Guido Rossi has the duty to reconstruct the facts and give a public explanation to all those who want to know the truth.” The peace talks were headed by CONI president Petrucci, who was joined by Della Valle, AC Milan vice-president Adriano Galliani, Juventus president Andrea Agnelli, Napoli patron Aurelio De Laurentiis, Inter's Massimo Moratti and current FIGC chief, Giancarlo Abete. The scandal, which centred on teams trying to influence the outcome of games by selecting favourable referees, came to light as a consequence of investigations by Naples prosecutors into the Italian football agency GEA World.

Buffon doubts Tevez worth Dec 16, 2011 Gianluigi Buffon believes Juventus would not benefit from Carlos Tevez and has questioned Milan’s necessity to sign him either. The wantaway Manchester City forward had been linked in recent weeks with both the Turin and Milan sides. The Rossoneri have put in an offer to take the Argentine in January and are now waiting on his club’s decision amid reported competition from Paris Saint-Germain. Despite the player’s goal-scoring record in recent seasons and the reportedly low price the player is available at - almost half his summer valuation - Buffon believes he is not a player that would add value to the Bianconeri. “In the event that he is at Juve, I have no idea if he will improve us. In attack we are covered, in numbers and quality, and I do not know if someone like Tevez has other problems. “To get great results, everyone needs to pull in the same direction and you have to set aside the ego and the self. Speak in the plural.” The Italian goalkeeper, who recently equalled Dino Zoff’s caps record between the Azzurri sticks, also went on to question whether Milan need Tevez either. “In attack Milan are so strong, they have no big problems - with Ibrahimovic, Robinho, Pato and then the returning Cassano and Inzaghi. “In short, they are well covered. It is clear, though, that the assessment is their business.”

‘Lichtsteiner one of the best’ Dec 16, 2011 Moreno Torricelli has crowned Juventus’ Stephan Lichtsteiner as one of the finest right-backs presently in the game. The Swiss international joined the Old Lady in the summer from Lazio for €10m and he’s been an ever-present in the club’s Serie A starting XI since. “Lichtsteiner is doing very well,” Torricelli, himself a former full-back in Turin, told Radio Mana Mana. “He is demonstrating to everyone just how good a player he actually is. “Lichtsteiner, in my opinion, is one of the best full-backs in Europe and I hope he doesn’t stop performing so well.” Torricelli spent six years at Juventus where he played in Marcello Lippi’s mythical side alongside present Juve boss Antonio Conte. “There are similarities between this team and the Juventus I played in,” added the former Fiorentina man. “They play with the same velocity, high pressing and the squad is very similar. This is an excellent team. “Antonio is charismatic, he was an excellent captain who is pays close attention to every detail. His DNA is Bianconero.”

I’m a centre-back, says Chiellini Dec 16, 2011 Giorgio Chiellini will be happy to once again be fielded in the heart of the Juventus defence this weekend. “It’s my role.” The Italian international has been mainly used as a left-back by Antonio Conte in Turin this season, but Leonardo Bonucci’s suspension should see him move over into the middle against Novara. “I’m ready to return into the centre, but it will be up to the Coach to decide,” Chiellini told Sky Sport Italia. “At the end of the day I consider that to be my natural position and I think I play better in that role,” he added. “I’m at the disposal of the squad and I’ll be happy to play as a centre-back against Novara.” Juventus are currently top of the standings with Udinese, two points clear of Lazio and title rivals Milan. “We have great respect for Milan,” the former Fiorentina player noted. “After all, we know that they are the reigning Italian champions. “There is a great desire here at Juventus to do well, but we are just taking things one game at a time without thinking about what could happen at the end of the season.”

No chip on Buffon shoulder Dec 15, 2011 Juventus’ Gigi Buffon has insisted that he wouldn’t have been annoyed with Francesco Totti had the Roman tried a cheeky chip penalty against him on Monday. The Italian international denied Totti from the spot after diving to his right following the captain’s decision to go for power rather than his previously seen delicacy. “I wouldn’t have got angry had he decided to chip in the penalty,” the Bianconero told Sky Sport Italia on Thursday. “That’s a very technical trick to pull off and it would have taken great courage. We’ve been friends for 15 years so I wouldn’t have been hacked off. “He took the penalty like he normally does. Had he aimed it in the other direction then it would have gone in.” Buffon is not widely recognised as a penalty saving expert, even if he’s unclear why such a view is held. “Right now there are goalkeepers like Udinese’s Samir Handanovic and Stefano Sorrentino of Chievo who are doing mad things with penalties. “However, I think I’ve saved about the right amount throughout my career so far.” The former Parma player was also asked for his thoughts on Milan’s proposed swoop of Manchester City forward Carlos Tevez. “Tevez would certainly improve the Milan attack, even if they don’t really have any issues in that sector as it is.”

Marchisio: Do Juve need signings? Dec 15, 2011 Claudio Marchisio wouldn’t be disappointed if League leaders Juventus opted against making any January signings. The Old Lady have been linked with a number of possible acquisitions, but the midfielder doesn’t think new faces are necessary. “The club will make its evaluations, but I can say that this squad is already very competitive,” he told Sky Sport Italia. “Obviously if the directors do decide to make some changes in the New Year then that will be good for everyone, but we are already a great group.” The Turin giants are currently joint top of the standings with Udinese, two points clear of Milan and Lazio. “We’ve demonstrated a lot up until this point of the season,” the Italian international continued. “We want to finish this month of December in first place.” Juve, who drew 1-1 at Roma on Monday night, are next in action at the weekend when they entertain Novara. “Novara are doing well,” he added. “They’ve played to win when facing everyone. They’ll come to Turin looking for points and we have to be alert.”

Claudio Marchisio: Juventus want to finish 2011 top of Serie A The Italy international is determined to end the year on a high, and team-mate Giorgio Chiellini has added that the Bianconeri can't slip up now after a good start to the term. Dec 14, 2011 Juventus midfielder Claudio Marchisio has made it clear that the Bianconeri will do their utmost to end 2011 on a positive note and enter the new year top of the table in Italy. The Turin giants currently sit joint first in the Serie A standings with 30 points from 14 games, and Marchisio is hopeful of successfully defending top spot in the final two league games of the year, against Novara on December 18 and Udinese three days later. "We are a great team and we will try to end the year in first position in the upcoming two games," Marchisio was quoted as saying by Tuttosport. "Novara have shown that their worthy of playing in Serie A. They might not have collected too many points, but they have done pretty well. They beat Inter and troubled Napoli as well. We have to be very alert. They need the points, but so do we." Team-mate Giorgio Chiellini was equally keen to end 2011 at the summit, and assured that they have that goal firmly in their sights. "Juventus' objective? We want to sit top of the table come Christmas. We are really close, so it would be a shame to ruin our great start in the next two games. We still have plenty to learn, but we are on the right track," the defender said to Sky Sport Italia. Juventus are currently preparing for Sunday's home game against Novara, which kicks off at 15.00CET.

Calciopoli talks end with no peace Dec 14, 2011 Those present at Wednesday’s Calciopoli peace talks have admitted that nothing has changed after a four-hour meeting. A summit was held today at the headquarters of CONI – the Italian Olympic Committee – in an effort to bring an end to the controversy which has shadowed the Italian game since the sentences of 2006. CONI chief Gianni Petrucci called for the get-together after Juventus started legal proceedings for damages after their demotion to Serie B five years ago. They were also stripped of two Scudetti. Amongst those at today’s ‘peace table’ were Juventus President Andrea Agnelli and Inter counterpart Massimo Moratti. Milan Vice-President Adriano Galliani, Fiorentina patron Diego Della Valle, Napoli chief Aurelio De Laurentiis and Italian Football Federation President Giancarlo Abete were also present. “It was a long, friendly and correct meeting,” Petrucci noted. “But I mustbe honest and sincere, the subject of Calciopoli is still very hot so nobody changed their stance on the matter. “There was a lot of good intentions, but no results have been obtained. I’ll certainly think very carefuly before planning another meeting.” He added: “I’m disappointed, but we gave it everything and we’ll sleep without problems tonight. There was no result, but no defeat either.” FIGC President Abete and Viola chief Della Valle also confirmed that nobody took a backwards step. “There was no change in position,” Abete stated. “Despite all of the effort, it’s hard to heal a deep wound.” Della Valle commented: “It was a civil meeting, but nobody altered their view.” Inter’s Moratti, whose side were handed Juve’s 2006 title, refused to go into detail about what was discussed. “All meetings can be constructive and everything can be useful,” he stated. Agnelli, meanwhile, didn’t leave a comment after admitting that he would talk to the media at a later stage about today’s events.

Calciopoli peace meeting ends with no resolution agreed Figures present at the four-hour summit all admitted that none of the problems discussed at the get-together have been ironed out with further meetings required. Dec 14, 2011 Wednesday's Calciopoli peace talks have ended with none of the issues discussed resolved, according to those present at the meeting. The four-hour showdown, which was held at the headquarters of the Italian Olympic Committee (CONI) on Wednesday came about as some of the most powerful figures involved in Italian football attempt to bring an end to the controversy that has clouded Serie A since the Calciopoli scandal in 2006. The meeting was headed by CONI chief Gianni Petrucci, who was joined by AC Milan vice-president Adriano Galliani, Fiorentina patron Diego Della Valle, Juventus president Andrea Agnelli, Napoli chief Aurelio De Laurentiis, Inter's Massimo Moratti and Italian Football Federation (FIGC) chief, Giancarlo Abete. Petrucci spoke to media after the talks and stated: "It was a long, friendly and correct meeting but I must be honest and sincere, the subject of Calciopoli is still very heated so nobody changed their stance on the matter. "There was a log of good intentions but no results have been obtained. I'll certainly think very carefully before planning another meeting. "I'm disappointed, but we gave it everything and we'll sleep without problems tonight. There was no result yet no defeat either." FIGC president Abete seconded Petrucci's view on the meeting, admitting it will be difficult to fully resolve all issues. "There was no change in position. Despite all of the effort, it's hard to heal a deep wound," he told the press. Inter patron Moratti, who saw his side dominate in Serie A after the Juventus' demotion to Serie B said: "All meetings can be constructive and everything can be useful." Fiorentina's Delle Valle added: "It was a civil meeting yet nobody altered their view." Juvents chief Agnelli refused to speak about the event, instead stating he will discuss the meeting at a later date.

Calciopoli peace talks begin Dec 14, 2011 A meeting with the intention of archiving Calciopoli for good has begun in Rome on Wednesday morning. The summit was organised by Gianni Petrucci, the head of the Italian Olympic Committee, after Juventus recently filed compensation claims for damages against their punishment back in 2006. The Old Lady were stripped of two Scudetti and demoted to Serie B with a point deduction after a rapid sporting inquiry. Milan, Fiorentina, Lazio and Reggina were also hit by point penalties, but they were allowed to remain in Serie A. The second of the two titles taken away from the Bianconeri was handed to Inter. Juventus, following revelations at the Napoli criminal trial, now claim that Inter’s title should be handed back. Amongst those at today’s ‘peace table’ are Juventus President Andrea Agnelli and Inter counterpart Massimo Moratti. Milan Vice-President Adriano Galliani, Fiorentina patron Diego Della Valle, Napoli chief Aurelio De Laurentiis and Italian Football Federation President Giancarlo Abete are also present. “I’ve come to listen and contribute,” stated Moratti on his arrival. “We’ll look to take things one step at a time. “A handshake with Agnelli? I don’t know. We’ll see…” De Laurentiis noted: “I hope Juve and Inter make peace. You are calling this the table of peace, I prefer to call it a table for a restart. “We’ve had enough of the talk, Italian football needs credibility.” Della Valle stated: “I don’t know if the table is round or square... I’ve come to hear what Petrucci has to say. I don’t know what will be discussed.”

Buffon: Saving Totti's penalty against Roma was down to hard work in training The veteran goalkeeper salvaged a point for the Turin club at the Stadio Olimpico on Monday night, and admitted that luck plays only a small part when it comes to spot-kicks. Dec 14, 2011 Gianluigi Buffon has revealed that he practices saving penalties on a daily basis during Juventus' training sessions, which helped him save Francesco Totti's spot-kick against Roma on Monday night. The veteran goalkeeper blocked his fellow Italy international's effort in the second half to continue the Turin club's unbeaten record in Serie A this season in a 1-1 draw. Although stating that luck plays a part in any penalty situation, he has also credited the save to the work done on the training field with his goalkeeping coach. "It was a major incident," the 33-year-old told Gazetta Dello Sport. "When there is a penalty to face, a little luck helps, but the daily hard work with [Claudio] Filippi on set-pieces was how I saved it." Team-mate Claudio Marchisio was also full of praise for Buffon, who he feels was accountable for preserving Antonio Conte's men's unbeaten run. "He is a great champion and he's showing it," Marchisio stated. "And not just this year. He's in great shape, and the team got an important point in Rome due to him parrying Totti's effort. "A goal could have meant defeat, we just drew. He had a great game," the midfielder concluded. Juventus are level with Udinese on 30 points at the top of the Serie A table.

Serie A - 15^ Giornata - Andata - 12-12-2011 (ore 8:45) 1 - 1 Daniele De Rossi (6') Giorgio Chiellini (61′) Stadio Olimpico - Roma Arbitro: Daniele Orsato Spettatori: 60000 Serie A - De Rossi illude la Roma, poi Chiellini la doma Sotto 1-0 per via del gol di De Rossi in apertura, la Juve trova il pareggio con Chiellini nel secondo tempo: 1-1 il finale all’Olimpico con Totti, nuovamente al centro del progetto Roma, che si fa parare un calcio di rigore da Buffon. Juventus che torna in testa alla classifica. Eurosport - Lunedí, 12 dicembre 2011 Si chiude con il pareggio dell’Olimpico tra Roma e Juventus la 15esima giornata di Serie A: per Conte c’è la conferma della grande forza fisica della sua squadra. Luis Enrique, che deve fare a meno di tanti titolari, fa quel che può: e lo fa molto bene. DE ROSSI IN DIFESA, TORNA TOTTI. NELLA JUVE ESTIGARRIBIA AL POSTO DI VUCINIC – Arriva la Juventus e Totti si riprende la Roma: la posizione è quella di trequartista alle spalle dei due “litiganti” Lamela e Osvaldo. Luis Enrique si affida quindi al suo capitano per risollevare una situazione che, dopo le due sconfitte consecutive a Udine e Firenze, non lo vede più così saldo al suo posto come gli capitava invece fino a solo tre settimane fa. Data la penuria in difesa, De Rossi scala a fare il centrale con Heinze, mentre a centrocampo – con l’inamovibile Pjanic – spazio a Greco e al giovane Viviani, all’esordio assoluto in Serie A. Tutto confermato nella Juventus, con Estigarribia che vince il ballottaggio con Giaccherini e Quagliarella per il ruolo di esterno sinistro nel tridente d’attacco presentato da Conte. Il centrocampo è quello tipo, con Marchisio, Pirlo e Vidal. CON TOTTI E’ UN’ALTRA ROMA: ASSIST AL BACIO E GOL DI DE ROSSI - Grande tatticismo nei primi minuti, poi al 5’ passa in vantaggio la Roma: sugli sviluppi di un calcio d’angolo dalla sinistra, la difesa della Juve resta bloccata sulla linea di porta con il pallone che arriva a De Rossi. Destro al volo e palla in rete, ma l’errore di Vidal nella circostanza è davvero incredibile. La Juve prova a riorganizzarsi e arriva alla conclusione con Vidal: il destro potente del cileno dalla distanza è però ben neutralizzato da Stekelenburg. La partita si accende nella parte centrale del primo tempo: la Juve prova a far male attaccando sugli esterni, ma la Roma – che con Totti in campo è tutta un’altra cosa – difende alla grande e riparte velocemente. Al 25esimo Juve vicina al pareggio con Estigarribia favorito da un liscio imprevisto di Taddei: il sinistro del paraguayano è chiuso in calcio d’angolo da Stekelenburg. Alla mezz’ora Totti, con l’aiuto di Lamela, spiega il “dai e vai” a Chiellini: il triangolo è chiuso dal giovane talento argentino con un assist al bacio di esterno sinistro per il suo capitano. Conclusione di testa a lato, ma la Roma è sempre pericolosa. La risposta della Juve, con Matri che ha vita durissima con la coppia di centrali improvvisata De Rossi-Heinze, è tutta nel destro dalla distanza di Vidal: palla a lato, anche se non di molto. CHIELLINI PAREGGIA, POI BUFFON IPNOTIZZA TOTTI SU RIGORE – Le squadre tornano in campo con gli stessi effettivi del primo tempo. Il primo cambio della partita è della Roma, con Luis Enrique che richiama il giovanissimo Viviani per fare spazio alla capacità di inserimento di Simplicio, ma la partita è bloccata, nessuna delle due squadre in campo riesce a prevalere sull’altra. Al 61esimo pareggio della Juventus: sugli sviluppi di una grande idea di Vidal, Estigarribia cerca il sinistro al volo… Che diventa un assist involontario per l’accorrente Chiellini: colpo di testa e pari bianconero. La Juve sembra in grado di affondare, ma è la Roma a spaventare gli uomini di Conte. Al 63esimo Totti è mandato sul dischetto dal direttore di gara per via di un fallo piuttosto netto di Vidal (ancora lui) ai danni di Lamela: il Buffon di quest’anno però è quello in versione fenomeno, e anche il capitano giallorosso deve arrendersi. Conte inserisce Quagliarella al posto di Matri, e Giaccherini per un evanescente Estigarribia: e mentre nella Roma Simplicio sbaglia l’impossibile davanti a Buffon, proprio l’ex del Cesena ha la palla del clamoroso 2-1 all’85simo su assist di Quagliarella. Stekelenburg si distende bene sulla sua sinistra e blocca la sfera. L’ultima occasione è ancora per la Juventus, e sempre con Quagliarella, che da quando è entrato ha dimostrato di meritare più considerazione da parte di Conte: il suo scavetto sull’uscita del portiere della Roma è ben neutralizzato dall’estremo difensore di Luis Enrique. JUVENTUS DI NUOVO IN TESTA. PER LA ROMA E’ UN PASSO AVANTI - Finisce così: 1-1 all’Olimpico. La Juventus torna in testa al campionato, anche se in coabitazione con l’Udinese e – in vista del rush finale per il titolo di campione d’inverno - Conte può ritenersi soddisfatto per un’altra bella prestazione della sua squadra. Anche la Roma è stata affrontata, e i bianconeri non hanno perso: ora come la mettiamo con lo Scudetto? Per quanto riguarda la Roma, invece, quella contro la Vecchia Signora è da considerarsi come un passo in avanti: nonostante il rigore sbagliato, Luis Enrique si sarà convinto che (anche) la sua squadra non può prescindere da Francesco Totti.
