Why Cannavaro's Juve return might not be all bad
The news of Fabio Cannavaro's very likely return to Juventus has sparked heated debate amongst the Bianconeri faithful. While he's widely regarded as a traitor for leaving the club at its darkest hour in the aftermaths of the Calciopoli scandal when players such as Alessandro Del Piero, Gianluigi Buffon, Pavel Nedved, David Trezeguet and Muari Camoranesi became heroes for remaining, many also seem to welcome the news of the center back's return to the Old Lady.

He polled 22.87% of the vote. Melo in the Dustbin originally appeared on About.com World Soccer on Thursday, December 17th, 2009 at 07:00:32.
