Don’t bring Brendski into this.

We’ve eliminated everything from the club that knows and understands what it is to be at Juventus. From the president, to the board, to the sporting director to the coach to the players. How do you then expect them to prepare, deal with the pressure and execute well? Sure, Tek, Danilo and...

We’ve been carved open time and again. Amazing we are only a goal down, and somehow with that chaotic shitshow we’ve expended a lot of energy doing whatever we are trying to achieve in that half.

5 wins out of 11 games would be a 45% win percentage. Which is less than the 13 wins out of 27 leagues games so far this season, so rationally speaking it’s not unreasonable.

I think he’s just always going to divide opinion within our fanbase. I thought he was good yesterday. I’m happy that tactically it appears he’s been asked not to drop between the two CBs recently. The double pivot works better when both CMs sit in the middle to try to break the lines, but it is...

40m for a winger who offers more defensively than offensively. He’s lucky our left back is Cambiaso who offers more going forward and is lazy defensively which is the only reason I can think he keeps playing.

At this point he’s just being forced around hoping something works for him. He looked seriously low on confidence when he came on. I’d still keep him as a sub and make him earn his place as the 3 in the middle today are more deserving of starting spots over him.

Looked iffy on a few counters, particularly the two in the first 10 minutes. Created a good number of chances for once, amazing what happens when you take risks and try to play through the middle of the field instead of constantly forcing the ball wide to the full backs and wingers hoping they...

I wish I shared your optimism that this would be true. If we scrape 4th place I get the feeling he will remain. Whilst some stability is desperately needed, (fairly new directors, a host of new players with limited experience at a big club and a new inexperienced manager) the fact remains that...

It’s strange. In that first 3 months when he joined, he showed some great composure in the box at times (I can recall two supreme goals away against Empoli where he showcased that). He also chased lost causes, ran the channels, won tackles high up the pitch. Essentially all the stuff he no...

Would we have really been much worse with Rabbit, Huijsen, Hans, Soule and Fag instead of Lulz, Nico and Koop?

By rushing to get the ball back for a throw in when we are chasing the game.

Don’t compare this tool to Brendski.

Well we found out he can sprint quickly. He also does probably hasn’t grasped the basics of playing full back as he was marking someone on the touch line instead of a wide player who was in acres between him and the CB he should’ve been marking.

Empoli come in on the back of 5 defeats and a draw in the last 6, whilst having an injury list bigger than ours. As usual the opponent still looks better drilled and fitter than us. There’s some fucked up poison around the club.

He was cooked after running the length of the pitch and really didn’t want that ball back from Bangs. There was no easy pass on from what I saw, so he fired it to be able to get back into possession, imagine the flak he would’ve taken if he lost it, they countered and scored. For years, our...

Snap, was driving back from the airport with it on. The English commentator did mention the same thing, but as you say the reality remains we’re more likely to finish 5th than challenge 3rd or above.

He’s the new Rabbit. ‘Availability is the best ability.’

Hopefully this experiment ends at the end of the season. He’s been no better than Pirlo and is worse than Sarri and does not warrant getting a second year.

We’ve become what we hate. We grew up with a side that was tough in every aspect. We are now soft. Fragile mentally - heads drop every time there’s any pressure. We get bullied physically on the pitch against everyone. Hardly anyone can stay fit for successive games. And to cap it off we let in...
