Who ate all the pies?

Life in Italy hasn't exactly been easy for Nicklas Bendtner so far, after his new club Juventus told him that he was too porky to play for them.

The Great Dane's first training session for the club ended with Juve coaches declaring that the Arsenal outcast would have to shed some weight in order to get a game. 

This comes after their sporting director admitted that they only signed Bendtner because of their failed attempts to lure main targets Robin Van Persie and Dimitar Berbatov, and then even Emile Heskey to Turin. He has also been branded as 'average' by club legend Alessio Tacchinardi.

That's not a very nice way to speak about the greatest striker in the world* now, is it?

*Self proclaimed

Bendtner will be hoping to prove the doubters wrong and that the Juventus hierarchy will soon be eating their words... If he doesn't get there first, that is.
