5 things learnt from today's game

Post ur 5

Here's mine

1- Chiellini is a Shadow of the player he used to be

2-conte made some bad moves, adp on his own, Elia starting, formation

3-lich/barzagli are our most consistent players

4-looks as if krasic got the boost he needed, that 2nd half he was the krasic of old

5-we need to convert our chances, yes these last 2 games we have shown alot of heart and people need to remember that every game in serie a Is tough. It's not like EPL where u can win 5-0 away from home. Teams wen they play juve give it there all so we need to be prepared physically and mentally. These games however we must pick up points.

And isnt it sweet to see us on top and inter so low!!!!!!!! Must win game against Milan at Juventus stadium this sunday

A couple poor games and Chiellini is suddenly a shadow of his former self? That is a little hasty, I trust in Giorgio.

I think Krasic is just fully recovered from his injury, he was fantastic in the second half, I agree

1. Chiellini only had one bad game, give the guy some slack... Everyone has a bad game... He's still the same Wall we know.

2. ADP move agreed. Elia starting is complete rubbish, he was bound to start. You can't have your best winger not play for 4 games, how do you expect him to adapt to Serie A? By sitting on the bench? No... He needs playing time.

3. Lichstiener was horrible out there, got owned on the right flank by Gomez, all game long. His crosses were bad, his communication with Krasic lacked. Not impressed at all. Agreed about Barz, lots of heart and respect gained.

4. Krasic was our most dangerous winger. Keep this up, I'd like to see those who said Pepe is better LOL.

5. Plain and simple... Lack of oppurtunities, lack of finishing and horrible set pieces. Ball poession, perfection.

3.Barzagli gives Lichsteiner confidence thats why i love him...not a great match by forest...but he did his work...if a goal was scored because of him then i woould said he was horrible and i would not be "impressed".

Barzagli gives Lichstiner confidiecne? Huh?

Starting Pirlo and not resting him was bad from Conte. Managing Pirlo and making sure Juve gets his best is pivotal for their title chances.

If they tire him out, he will not be as brilliant as you saw him in the first three games.

YES! Agreed. I said that before, but nobody agreed. It was not the rain that completely ruined his performance, but him not resting did... In the first half, most of his balls were just not the passes we are use too. Was pretty quiet, his set pieces were not up to par. Just not the Pirlo we know. In the second half, he lost the ball twice deep in midfield which casued Catania to counter on the break. Not bashing Conte here again, but that is just another odd move to play him, even when starting Vidal on... But hey, I said in the summer we needed a vice for Pirlo, nobody agreed except for a few.

Well it seems you are not too observant, but anyway barzagli is always there to praise licht and to cover his back...

lol...

Everyone is like that... Chiellini does it to Grosso.

Buffon does it too everyone...

What is your point?

Agreed Tony, (first time I've called u that) can I call u antonino or Antonio ? Is that ur real name?
Pirlo on his own in midfield wasn't good also about Elia, I don't understand why u would start him away to Catania and not home to bologna, in Sicily it's not easy to play

Tony... is fine lol. But my real name is Antonio.

Well usually it is easy to play in Sicily as away fans dominate with Juventus supporters... this time they were not all there. Me being there, it's no surprise, they are all pist right now, regardless of what's going on now. A lot of people still upset with no Top players. Thats Sicily for ya', all hard heads like me LOL

Hahaha southerners are hard workers they demand results. Just look at Napoli, fans .

1. With krasic and pepe we need a target man in the middle.. What's the point of crossing if is del Piero and pirlo

2. Chiellini had a horrible game.. Lacked concentration idk

3. It seems like we throw everybody forward when we attack.. I like this but we're too vulnerable if we lose the ball

4. I think conte is scared to play without pirlo.. Like the team would be lost without him.. He needs to be conserved to be at his best, like others said

5. Selling zeigler was a mistake

Overall we showed potential but we looked too vulnerable at times

We trully are, completely different from the north

Out of curiosity , which team in sicilia do u follow ?

Palermo and Trapani FC

First I'd like to say..
KRASIC WELCOME BACK
I hope Conte makes assessment of todays match & start the best 11 vs Milan which now I think is:
To be honest...I don't think Conte is confident in the bench players...
We need to go shopping January..

I would like to see a 4-3-3 versus Milan.

Vucinic-Matri-Krasic
Marchisio-Pirlo-Vidal
PDC-Chiellini-Barzagli-Lichtsteiner
Buffon

If Conte is not ocnfident in PDC I would move Chiellini to the left and play Bonucci-Barazgli.
Juventus has to leave it all on the field against Milan.

Buffon
Lich barza chiellini PDC

Pirlo Vidal

Krasic-------------vucinic

Adp matri

Against Milan. Vucinic must have his head on right because I donT want to see him walk around the pitch again

I would like to see a 4-2-3-1

Pirlo - Marchisio

Krasic - Vidal - Vucinic

Matri

Dont think Matri on his own brings the best out of him. I'd like to see toni Back and Sorensen in the squad

Then shifit to a 4-3-3 or a 4-2-4, but Milan's mid would crumple... Pirlo and Marchisio

I learned two things from this game:

1. Krasic is our most dangerous player

2. We need a finisher, a top player, a world class player to take us to the next level.

We need MARIO BALOTELLI.....

I'm disappointed with this match. I do not like Conte's tactics in Catania. Striker to be loner on the pitch were not good enough. I think that the 4-4-2 and 4-2-4 are a very versatile and aggressive formation which opens up the wings for attack as well as spreading the defensive to create holes in the middle of the pitch.

ffs PEpe was great when he came he lived up the game ... and I loved it ...give some respect pls
