Gianluigi Buffon

Over the next week and a half, here at the Juventus Offside we will be profiling Juventini, their characteristics, and what role they play for their national team. It might not be the most useful for regular readers or general Juventus fans, but I think we Juventini are most apt, perhaps, to describe the quality of these players as we watch them week-in, week-out. The Juventus players going to South Africa are as follows: For Italy, Gianluigi Buffon, Giorgio Chiellini, Claudio Marchisio, Fabio Cannavaro, Vincenzo Iaquinta, Amauri, and Mauro Camoranesi. (Pending the last cut) For Uruguay, Martin Caceres. For Brazil, Felipe Melo. For Denmark, Christian Poulsen. After the jump, the first, for Mr. Gianluigi Buffon.
