  1. [CL] Juventus 0-2 Barcelona [October 28th, 2020]

    Looks good on paper, but I have to worries about this: (i) Dybala and Kulusevski have similar traits and seem to prefer the same part of the pitch, they will have to learn to cohexist on the fly; and (ii) this formation practically exhausts our offensive resources at once, specially with the...
  2. Paulo Dybala

    He showed real grinta till the last minute, nonetheless the rust. Absolutely nothing to complain about him. Only questionmark is fit, specially with kulusevsky. Dybala simply has odd carachteristics that make difficult for him to fit with a wing play based game, which is non negotiable in...
  3. Dejan Kulusevski

    Paratici deserves all praise here. Perfect timing on this signing. 6 more months and he would be EPL money material. 1603741182 His decision making and composture are just off the charts. Jackpot. It reminds me of Marottas tenure: almost every year, he was able to succesfully sign one new guy...
  4. Arthur

    Didnt follow him at Gremio so Im not sure he can be more aggressive/direct/creative with the ball. But I do know thats what Barca fans complained about and this is the expectations Pirlo already made public. Also, not sure about his fit for the defensive groundwork a 2 men mid needs.
  5. Andrea Pirlo

    Maybe it isnt on him. I Just feel the team is more exposed than it should be on counters, too much space between mid and defense. And I have the impression he's a bit heavy to cover too much ground defensively, at least right now. 1603739391 The 3 CB build up with the ball shows problems...
  6. Andrea Pirlo

    I'm afraid it's a little bit more than unluck or Pirlo's learning curve. Defense has looked hopelessly fragile on counters against every (very weak) team faced so far. It's about fit. We are playing 3CBs + 2 mids. What other team does that? Specially when one of your CMs is Arthur, who is...
  7. Andrea Pirlo

    Every game he is forced to go to a more normal back 4, and suddenly the team improves. Oh well
  8. [Serie A] Juventus 1-1 Verona [October 25th, 2020]

    -----------------Szcz Demiral---Bonucci---Danilo -------Arthur-----Rabiot Cuadrado---Ramsey---Bernardeschi ------Morata-----Dybala Bench (1st team players): Buffon, Bentancur, Mckennie, Frabotta, Kulusevski * Demiral as a RCB, where he is more comfortable, pushing Danilo to LCB **...

    what the FUCK is this
  10. Andrea Pirlo

    The little bits I could catch were really good. Night and day from the past 2 games. Cuadrado on the right, a position he masters, appears to give more stability to the team as a whole. Ramsey also looked good and seemed to fit very well at his deployed position. CBs positioning is a bit...
  11. [CL] Dynamo Kiev 0-2 Juventus [October 20th, 2020]

    Oh-oh... I hope it works out, but this lineup looks like a mess again. Cuadrado was disastrous on the left vs Roma.
  12. Tactics and Formations

    This looks spot on. The position of the offensive players is tricky (would rather Kulu as the CAM, Dybala as a starting SF), but in general this looks the most logical deployment of players. Simple and well-defined. The 03 CBs thing is looking way too forced indeed.
  13. Gianluca Frabotta

    Don't know about defending, but I like his offensive posture. He's not afraid to pass forward, and not only sideways or backways, like 90% of FBs do.
  14. Federico Chiesa

    He either doesnt know how to play as a RWB and didnt attend Pirlo's instructions, or wasnt instructed at all. Weird.
  15. Arthur

    Once we get used to his fancy play style and eye pleasing moves, we'll see how little this guy affects the game.. Im not optimistic on him
  16. Arthur

    Not gonna happen. I already dislike this guy
  17. Sami Khedira

    I wont be surprised if Pirlo goes back to him at a 3 men mid
  18. Manolo Portanova

    It's disappointing that this guy is the best the youth setup can offer at the position. No business playing at this level
  19. Dejan Kulusevski

    His vision and decision making are very impressive. Paratici may have hit the jackpot here
  20. [Serie A] Crotone 1-1 Juventus [October 17th, 2020]

    Naive is the word. Quite disappointing. Just go back to the damn básics.
