    Igor Tudor - Manager

    That's it. All the European teams that had long cup runs are arguably at their weakest at this time of year. They're mentally on holiday. Players are coming and going, managers are just starting out. It's also in the U.S. which makes it seem plastic and fake. Only the South-American fans are...

    Alberto Costa

    He's shown some ability with the ball but first goal by City shows that he doesn't have a clue about defending. Watching it over again, you can see he completely misjudged the pass even though Doku began to run in the direction of goal right in front of him a whole second before the pass was...

    Teun Koopmeiners

    Only watched highlights, but I couldn't believe how bad he was against City on those conceded goals. It's not even about his skills letting him down. Zero effort, zero concentration. He patently did not want to have a crack. Even in a dead rubber match at a joke tournament in 40 degree heat...

    Inzaghi, maybe.

    Il Capitano Alessandro Del Piero

    His glasses are shocking. And also hate the carry on on that CBS Golazo show. Maldini looked like he was doing a decent job but he was undermined. Chiellini has a Bachelors in economics/commerce and a Masters in business admin. So at least he's done some preparation for an admin role unlike...

    Did the double at City.

    Apparently Giuntoli likes Mancini. Others at the club don't agree. I'd take Mancini. He's a good stop-gap manager. Better than committing to Gasperini long term.

    That horrible next step. Juve became JJ, burnt through cash, turfed out the ultras, brought in cheerleaders and built a brand new tiktok department. If I started watching Serie A today, there's no way I'd barrack for this plastic, soulless rump of a club.

    Hard to go for another young manager after the Motta fiasco. Juve are Man U 3 to 4 years ago. Something is fundamentally wrong from the top down. Only the older hands can manage a group of players through dysfunction at a club. Ranieri at Roma is a case in point. Conte is another. The players...

    Wish we could just get Beppe back.

    How could they leave McTominay out? Bastoni, Dumfries.

    Scouted a few world class players. But he never did create a winning team.

    21 Dec - 18 Jan. So during CL break I think? He's guaranteed goals. Like a Higuain kind of signing. You know exactly what you're getting.

    Summer mercato thread 2025-26

    Osimen's the only striker we should be thinking about. Lookman is class but Atalanta would squeeze us big time. I'm tired of wingers. Lets play two up front or Allegri's front three with two strikers (ala Mandzukic/Morata - Higuain - DC). I'm confident that Conte can polish some of the turds in...

    We're in a similar place to where we were when Conte came in last. There's talent in the squad, but no guts. Even if Conte can come in for one or two years and instil that mentality in this group, give the scudetto nudge. Then the next manager (as long as it's a serious appointment, unlike...

    Motta was killing him by making him always stay wide in a static system. He needs complete freedom.

    [Serie A] Juventus 1-0 Genoa [29th March, 2025 18:00 CET]

    We were definitely more direct, more vertical. How frustrating was it under Motta seeing us on the break with a numerical advantage, but we passed back or square to get back into 2-7-2 formation. Dusan's touch is horrible, but at least he was presenting with his back to goal. Hopefully Yildiz...

    Igor Tudor - Manager

    No thanks. He's like Sarri and Motta. Has a very particular system, involving a steep learning curve. Less than good man manager. Juve should give up on hiring managers anticipating high possession, high pressing, high scoring, 'beautiful' football. We need a man manager who's tactically...
