So many emotions: how could I not think of the 'Avvocato', always attentive to me, of his phone calls at dawn after a match won, of his appearances at training sessions... the world stopped! Juve was more than a family, it was a place where I really learned what "competitiveness" meant as a player, and which also pushed me in my life as a man and in my family.
Now, beyond when I take on the role of commentator or analyst, where I always try to maintain an unbiased viewpoint, I find myself feeling really bad when Juve loses, as much as I am elated when they win. As a footballer, when you lost you felt bad, but the reaction was different, you had to concentrate on the next match, understand the mistake, and work to not repeat it. Now, however, I have started to truly experience it as a fan again. I didn't think the emotions would explode like this again. It's beautiful. Claudio Marchisio
