If our players need a fucking coach to tell them how to win against fucking Benevento then they should all fucking quit the football game.

There was this situation, a counter attack today that we made, where Kulu had the ball and just had to pass it in front of Chiesa who was running between Beneventos defenders and he would have been 1 on 1. The pass was maybe 4 metres long, maybe less, and Kulu somehow managed to mispass it behind Chiesa and stop him in his run. This is not something a coach is responsible for. Yes, he is responsible for the team set-up, and choosing the players, but come on, look at the names of our players and then look at Benevento's and tell me that we had to have Pep or Klopp so we could win against Benevento? Its ridiculous. Artur fucked it up. Even if it is our coache's instructions not to hoof the ball from our defence but try to pass it, still, a football match goes through all kinds of situations so our players should be professional fucking enough to make different calls than what our coach asks from him. 99 out of 100 players would have passed it to Sczesny, regardless of who their coach was. The same hapens with Alex Sandro many times, he loves making those passes and had his pasess cut off by oposition players many times and cost us goals. Its lack of football inteligence, nothing more, nothing less. Our team is full of players who are not smart football-wise, its our main problem.

Im having this rant cause im very pissed cause i love Juventus and it hurts to watch them like this, even though it had to hapen cause its not possible to win every single year. But it scares me cause instead od building on the successes we had, and have a team of amazing players, we have been downgrading year in, year out.

Philosophy like what we practice is only something that comes through time

I believe it all started with Van Gaal back in 2009
I can't be a fan of another club but I really admire Bayern blitzkrieg style. Except for Klinsmann period, you guys always fight with great spirit even at times the opponents were better than you. I noticed that since I started watching football in 1986.

Haha. I left the game at half time. Proper clueless performance again. With the players at our disposal we should still win no matter what. Shove 4 at the back for fuck sake and stop trying to be all hippy with this hybrid bullshit.

@JuveE46

I agree but the fact is that none of the Benevento players would get into our squad yet they played as a somewhat organised team and beat us. During the season we've had a few great performances like in Barcelona, against Inter in Coppa as well so the ability is there. Scapegoating Bernardeschi is one thing but what about the rest or our superstars?

Don't tell me we can afford Ronaldo salary but cannot afford to pay a coach salary
we made a deficit of 110m during the first half of the financial year. we signed ronaldo when we could afford him. post covid juve can't afford ronaldo.

this summer all we had money for was pirlo (+ we are still paying maurice).

Then why did we appoint Pirlo as the U23 coach first you have to admit Agnelli took a gamble and it didn't pay off

How's that penny pinching paid off?

We'll have lost far more in revenue from getting kicked out of the CL in the last 16. Then there are sponsorship deals etc. If we miss the top 4, the loss becomes massive.

For me the coach is the arguably the most important signing you can make. Scrimping here is a false economy.
