How massive is this stretch of games?

Oct 25- Juventus- Fiorentina
Oct 29- Inter- Juventus
Nov 6- Napoli- Juventus
Nov 20- Juventus- Palermo
Nov 26- Lazio- Juventus
Dec 4- Juventus- Cesena
Dec 12- Roma- Juventus

This stretch will certainly define Juventus' season
What do you guys think?

When will Juventus' first loss be?
How many points from the next 3 games?

Never like to say Juventus will win or lose, but those stretches of games makes me laugh at De Laurentiis who last year said Napoli had it rough and the FIGC were going against them intentionally.

Yeah me neither about Juventus losing

I want to see them beat Fiorentina convincingly, beat Inter in the same way, a draw against Napoli would not be be the worst thing. Also, I would love to win against Palermo, Palermo always gives Juventus trouble so it would be sweet.

Yes. Not to mention I hope Chiellini shuts down Miccoli. Napoli will be a tough fixture, as last year Juventus were blown out 3-0 and then tied them 2-2, but that was without Cavani, so they cannot expect a similar team.

Green - Win
Red - Loss

Thats what I think will be perfect

Don't think Lazio can beat us. Napoli will if we don't get some great defensive understanding by then.

Napoli can easily win or draw. The way the defend the middle versus how bad Juventus' wing play has been...
If the wingers are active I can see a Juventus win, and by active I mean top form Krasic/the best of Elia.

Tie, Tie, Tie, Lose, Win, Win, Tie, Win, Lose

Roma will beat Juventus, their squad is much more superior. If only Sabatini... came... if only.

Roma's squad isnt at all superior.......

I think we will tie every game...

Tie every game and hear Marotta and Conte praise team for being undefeated. Meanwhile, we lose 10th place to Fiorentina.

Better than losing in a way.
If juventus lose a few of these games the pressure will be on, especially if its like a draw against fiorentina, loss to inter, loss to napoli.

i hope this wont happen but it is a scary though.

I'm actually more confident against these strong teams...
I'm more worried about Palmero!

LOL @ roma being superior.

They're SO bad now it's not even funny. They couldn't even beat inter when they were losing to teams like Novara.

Juventus vs Inter will be HUGE. A real test for both teams, one team doing higher than expectations, the other below.

This whole stretch of games is going to be the real test and the true indicator of Juve this season. If they survive this and still remain first, they have recovered from calciopoli, otherwise, they're back to where they were every year.

With Quagliarella and an organized defensive line, you guys should be more than capable. However, I sense that you may have defensive problems still testing the perfect solution, and Quagliarella will again for whatever reason ride the bench even after being Italy's best attacker last year.

Agreed. Roma aren't superior. They'll probably do a Juve and miss out on Europe all together if they don't get some goals.
I don't get why Quags is so far down in the pecking order either. And I just feel like we'll drop too many points to the lesser teams again. Then turn up and fight like there's no tomorrow against the bigger teams. It is now the Juve way.

Antonio is a Roma fan, don't you guys know ?
He puts all his positive thought towards Roma

Roma is superior... Look at the players they have.

Pjanic, Bojan, Lamela, Borini, Totti, Osvaldo, De Rossi, etc...

Pjanic > Pazienza
De Rossi > Vidal

Only Matri/Quag > Osvlado

Del Piero > Totti

Then on... they are superior

If only football was played on paper

What about the defense?
Tactics and so on

The main advantage Roma has is that they are at home

Defense... Were better, however they are currently better in Midfield and in Attack.

Hate to say it, but even thought Marchisio has been on a fantastic role and all you know how much I praise Marchisio. I'm not a biased person, and that being said. De Rossi has been better than Marchisio, not by much... but is has been a beast.

The only midfielder in my opinion better at form is currently Pirlo, but that's it.

In attack... where to begin?

Osvaldo scoring consistent goals
Lamela being amazing
Totti who is Totti
Bojan who adds exceptional depth
Borini who is a star in the making

Juve...

Matri - Best Striker currently, but only 3 goals
Vucinic - Incosisntent, Lazy
Quag - Has hardly played
Del Piero who is Del Piero...

At the moment, only Del Piero tops their list as in best out of all.

Everyone else... injured or gone.

That game is a long way away
I have not been convinced by Roma, or Juventus for that matter but the beauty of it is that the game is in December

Borini in the MAKING as you said, he's no where to being better than any Juve striker yet, he hasn't even scored yet. Osvaldo is crapier than any Juve striker as well. That's the problem with Roma, they have virtually no attackers or defenders. De Rossi makes up for both their defense and their midfield. Pjanic can't express himself with Totti playing. Roma is a project in the making, < IN THE MAKING. Not now, not yet, Juve is better for now. Roma's still young and learning. Their defense is the shakiest out of any top Serie A team, even more so than Inter, and their strikers aren't good enough it's as simple as that. Bojan's freaking great though, but still, settling in... not there yet. If this game were in a month maybe things would be different but it's in a week.

We need to win our home games plain and simple.

From the fist 3 games, 5 points is acceptable. We need 10 from the rest. With roughly 2 points per game over those 7 games, we will be ok .

But during that stretch we need our competition to lose some

1) I never said Borini was better then us, however his current form ruined Inter's defense, I'd like to add. Read properly. Of course he hasn't scored, if he only started twice? This isn't a player who has played a long time.

2) Osvaldo is crappier than any Juve striker? Of course he is, but at the moment, he's one of Italy's top Prima Punta's and sadly is in better form then any of our strikers. Which again you fail to realize, as for one I mentioned it and you ignored it, and two he has more goals then any of our strikers. Lastly, he has been Roma's best striker. ALL CURRENTLY WITHIN FORM, NOT ON PAPER.

3) No attackers?

Prima Puntas: Totti, Osvaldo, Borriello
Seconda Puntas: Lamela, Bojan, Borini

No attackers?

4) Thanks for confirming that not only De Rossi is the best Italian midfielder(behind Pirlo) very, very, close to Marchisio, as he works his ass off with both attacking and defending. And once agian, if you didn't read, I did say Juve have the better defense. However in mid, we speak of depth? Pizaro, Gago, Pjanic, Simplico, Perotta...

5) Since when is Pjanic suppost to like up well with Totti? He's been linking up with everyone great up to this point.

Anyways forget Roma. Back to topic.

One more off topic, why so much hate against Osvaldo? I think he has been good for Roma...

Thats all
