Juventus 3 vs Chievo Verona 1

After Surag's poverty game thread draws I feel like a change of game day thread maker needs to take effect, with my 100% record with the help of the great GOAT Baraja, it is time to go on another winning streak.

Everything goes here.......

Will be updated

Prediction: Juve 3 - Chiev 0
(Tevez, Vidal, Llo/Osvaldo)



The Great One has willed it

Lol i see why we have been not winning the past few games....
Baraja

My poverty threads has earned 5 wins and just 1 loss out of 8 games you ungrateful peasants !

I think we're playing a 4-3-1-2 I saw some reports saying so. I'm actually excited to see how that works because we need a 2nd formation at least until the summer window where we can maybe sign a RW. In one of the reports I heard Marchisio will start ahead of Pogba.

                    Buffon
Lichsteiner - Barzagli - Bonucci - Asamoah
            Vidal - Pirlo - Marchisio
                     Tevez
            Llorente - Osvaldo

Is that true?

Juventus (3-5-2): Buffon, Caceres, Bonucci, Ogbonna; Lichsteiner, Marchisio, Pirlo, Vidal, Asamoah; Tevez, Llorente.
To avail.: Storari, Rubinho, Peluso, Padoin, Isla, Pogba, Giovinco, Osvaldo. Coach: Earl
Suspended: -
Out: Chiellini, Pepe, Barzagli, Vucinic

Its good to see cla back. I heard reports from GDS saying that Osvaldo, tevez and llorente will play. I hope its true, but I cant vision lolo and osva playing together.
@gigi im not sure if we r going to use that specific formation tbh

#Juventus starting XI: Buffon, Caceres, Bonucci, Ogbonna, Lichtsteiner, Vidal, Pirlo, Marchisio, Asamoah, Llorente, Giovinco. #JuveChievo

#Juventus substitutes: Storari, Rubinho, Isla, Peluso, Padoin, Pogba, Tevez, Osvaldo, Quagliarella. #JuveChievo

Why is Giovinco starting?

FFS Giovinco starting


I know why though, Osvaldo has the flu, Mirko is injured again, Tevez needs a rest and Quags - Llorente can't really work

However, i'd rather stick Chiello upfront with an injury than play this scrub.

Brilliant goal from Asa

Asa Ghana boy

baraja wonders in effect (surag keep mad)

Nice to see conte rotating the squad before a European match, unlike what we did for the CL

But I thought Osvaldo recovered from the flu.

fans who booed Giovinco

very unfair treatment even if he is not a great player....

100% record still intact

stay mad Surag, stay mad tom

Its good to see us win with elm making match threads

I frikin hate matches in the afernoon -,-
I sleep half way through as I come back tired as shit from school

My win percentage is pretty high.Wait until 2-3 games where you'll start scrubbing as expected

Anyways ratings for this game :

Buffon : 7.0-Solid performance today with some good saves

Bonucci : 7.0-A rather good game from him today.Made an excellent last ditch tackle to deny Pellisier when the score was at 2-1.

Ogbonna : 7.5-Was a total beast and totally controlled the left side.

Caceres : 6.5-Silly deflection to the goal altho you cant blame him much.Was ok overall.

Pirlo : 7.0-Usual Pirlo performance,was great in set-pieces again although he leaves us often exposed on the counters thankfully we were relatively untroubled.

Marchisio : 7.0-Good game,won many 50-50 challenges today,was very energetic and it was good to see him on the scoring sheet today.

Vidal : 7.5-My MOTM.Nothing more to be said.Great comeback from him after that bad showing last weekend.

Lichtsteiner : 6.0-Pretty meh going forward today but did his job what was expected of him.

Asamoah : 7.5-Producing more great performances in that LWB position.He has been fantastic at LWB lately.And that was a great finish on the goal too.

Llorente : 6.5-Bad game overall,lots of sloppy passes and misguided headers but he did score in the end and thats all matter for strikers.

Giovinco : 6.0-Average showing.Lacked end product as usual.

Subs :

Tevez N/A
Osvaldo N/A
Padoin N/A

Hey S, what did Vidal do that deserves to be MOM, cuz tbh when I was watching, didn't see anything special

my thoughts exactly, I felt Vidal was ok but nothing special, but Surag used "my motm" so let's excuse him, i think Asamoah should be motm...

He was all over the place as usual.Toying with their midfield,winning a lot of challenges,usual standard performance from him although you can easily give the MOTM to any one of Ogbonna,Pirlo or Asamoah in my opinion.

Wouldnt disagree with that.

Tbh, from what I saw, we dominated the game but not a lot of threats. Maybe its the gio-llorente partnership thats mehish? It was more of a midfield game. There was no teamwlrk between gio and lolo... I like the combination of tevez with lolo or osvaldo like against hellas...
