Zaccheroni’s Juventus has discovered an extra weapon when it comes to the left flank. Fabio Grosso has returned to being a protagonist since Florence, by scoring the match winner. Paolo De Ceglie is improving constantly giving great performances and decisive assists. The experience and the youth have joined forces at Juventus.

The change worked perfectly at the Franchi, even though it was forced by the injury of the young player from Valle D’Aosta. Three days after the match against Fiorentina and two before the one against Fulham, De Ceglie is once again available. He spoke to the press while visiting the Buckyball Workshop at the PalaRuffini with Del Piero: "Now I am well and I am ready for the match on Thursday. We all care very much about the Europa League and we want to continue to do well, like against Fiorentina against whom we obtained a very important victory".

After a series of good performances, De Ceglie’s name is being mentioned with regards to the national team. A few months before South Africa 2010, there are those who think of another possible change with Grosso, a player who knows the World Cup well. "At Juve there is room for everyone and each and every one of us knows that he can contribute to the good of the team. The azzurro jersey? I am only thinking of the bianconera one at the moment".
