    [SERIE A] Cagliari - Juventus (21st September, 2008)

    The creativity ( not as in "creating chances" but more like "ball movement on the ground") is indeed a big problem. Way too often we have no idea what to do with the ball and we end up losing it after Chiellini sends a long ball. But i think that this can be solved without buying a CM who can...

    [SERIE A] Cagliari - Juventus (21st September, 2008)

    Frankly, i don't remember if he was on the bench in Firenze. I'll take your word for it. If he was then Ranieri made a mistake back then for not fielding him instead of Del Piero in the second half. But today, even if it wasn't his first time on Juve's bench in serie A, i have absolutely no...

    [SERIE A] Cagliari - Juventus (21st September, 2008)

    Guys....THE FIRST GAME that Giovinco was available to play. We're not talking about the entire season, we're talking about this one single match, while you make it sound like Giovinco will not get his chance at all. Today he didn't start because in no way any coach would put Nedved on the bench...

    [SERIE A] Cagliari - Juventus (21st September, 2008)

    Marchisio played +20 matches for Juve and in Florence Sissoko was suspended while Zanetti was injured. He played because we had no other option in CM (unless you'd start with the guy who locked the director in the toilet the very same day). Amauri was a ~25m eur signing. You can't put him on the...

    We all want Giovinco to play. I, and i'm sure many others here, were looking forward to this season mostly because of Giovinco. Personally i was angry and sad when i saw De Ceglie entering the game as our third sub. But if you put your emotions away and if you look at things realistically and...

    [SERIE A] Cagliari - Juventus (21st September, 2008)

    I wasn't kidding and i don't know if you got it or not, but it's true that the coaches choose not to put their new players (unless they are proven stars), especially the younger players, directly into the fire. They like to introduce the young players slowly and to go step by step. Usually they...

    Yes, my mistake. Trez didn't play.

    At the same moment when you wrote this, the member YasoR17 gave his vote for Marchisio :D

    Amauri and no-one else deserves the MOM. The only one, apart from Amauri, who played at high level was Marchionni. The poll should've had only these two names, but since we usually do it with at least 4 players, i decided to add two more names. The goalkeepers didn't play enough to be MOM...

    [SERIE A] Cagliari - Juventus (21st September, 2008)

    Molinaro playing instead of De Ceglie is a major mistake. With this i agree. Even if he planned to give De Ceglie full 90 minutes against Catania, Ranieri can go fuck himself for playing Molinaro. But you're being too harsh on him about Giovinco and in this case i do think you're drama queens...

    Yes, i even wrote his name but then i edited it because Amauri is much better than Ibra in the air.

    [SERIE A] Cagliari - Juventus (21st September, 2008)

    This is why squad depth is so important. Last year if we played without Camoranesi, Zanetti, Del Piero, Trezeguet, Grygera/Zebina and 45 minutes without Buffon we'd have probably lost the match. No reason to be so disappointed. This was almost our B team and even our A team players were bad...

    [SERIE A] Cagliari - Juventus (21st September, 2008)

    Napoli played without Lavezzi, Hamsik, Maggio and Cannavaro today and they played the last 20 minutes without Santacroce (his second red card in his second serie A match this year) and still they weren't defeated. If Napoli had Lavezzi, Hamsik and Maggio they'd have surely won today. Last year...

    We conceded 0 goals on the matches Chiellini played this season. He played against Artmedia (4:0), Udinese (1:0), Zenit (1:0) and Cagliari (1:0) He didn't play against Artmedia away (1:1) and Fiorentina (1:1) ------------ I was so disappointed Giovinco didn't get his chance today. He was...

    Amauri was a class above everyone today. My MOM without a doubt.

    It sure did. But i'm sure he was back on November 4 because that's the day we played Inter in Turin and he scored the equaliser.

    I don't like it. I hate it actually. No Chiellini, Poulsen, Camoranesi, Del Piero and Trezeguet (the last 3 expected). No De Ceglie and Giovinco in the starting XI. :(

    I think not. Camo assisted the last minute goal against Cagliari. I'm pretty sure Camo got injured in the first half of the next match against Udinese and he was out for circa two months.

    Oh, he was owned, trust me. Defensively, i mean. In attack he was brilliant. He scored the winner and he made the cross that led to our first goal. But at the back Foggia did whatever he wanted with Giorgio. And he got angry for a reason. The referee gave two very dubious penalties for...
