just looking at our matches, we have only won 2.

and only in 2 of those did we look like a team with a desire to rape pillage and plunder.

not only the past few seasons but even in our days we were struggling against Bari, Lecce, Verona...etc

and Conte was right about the attitude and that Chievo on form. they were great defensively and we dont have the young Del Piero to kill the game in one magical moment.

some of the results against small team in the 2001-2002:

Lecce Juventus 0:0
Bologna Juventus 0:0
Parma Juventus 1:0
Piacenza Juventus 0:1

2002-2003:

Bologna Juventus 2:2
Atalanta Juventus 1:1
AC Perugia Juventus 0:1
Brescia Juventus 2:0
Juventus Bologna 1:1
Piacenza Juventus 0:1
Modena Juventus 0:1
Juventus Como 1:1

The results above are throughout the entire season. We've already had 3 of those results in 6 games this season.

Parma was not a small team back then.

We've only conceded one goal in open play this year, I found that interesting.

food for thought

would we be praising conte if milan and napoli hadn't had blunders along the way?

We've improved considerably in terms of play and personality. I was certainly expecting a lot worse. And it's still early.

We've conceded more goals because of De Ceglie than we have in open play.

Same could be said of Chiellini really

Hence 'quasi' wingers push up 15 feat and its a 4-2-3-1 but the problems of an overcrowded midfield and/or isolated forwards is consistent in all of those games. 4-4-2 presented more clear chances and more goals so far and in 2 out of 3 of those games the formation was changed back to a 4-4-2 and we saw positive changes in the games.

In Italian, the term 'quasi' means 'almost'. That is the whole point about the wingers, as I pointed out earlier, we played with a 4-1-4-1 in those games mentioned, however we shifted always to a 4-2-3-1 when going on the attack. I was watching SKY today and they mentioned and spoke about why Conte went with that formation, they claimed it's because he wanted to see if he would of gotten that sort of reaction, sort of play against Chievo just like he did against Milan. The problem lies with two clear points, one of them being is of course... Chievo is a very tactical and organized side who are known to defend great, in which they close all angles and spaces which makes it hard for the opposition to score on or even worst nothing at all. This is a side that made Napoli lose at home, thankfully we didn't lose. Of course, when Del Piero came on, we had finally two reference points up front which then caused us to play much better, get more chances and almost score. The second point can also be the fitness levels of many of our players, those being the ones who played with their international teams, to be quite honest... this wasn't Pirlo's best game, we've seen Marchisio do better, Vidal was just not up to par in that game, Lichstiener did work hard, but was some what poor going forward I would say his worst game with us this season, Krasic another horrible performance and so on... I believe the internationals did effect us in this game, and if there was no international break, I think we would of seen a different impact even with a 4-1-4-1.

2 goals to be exact.

I was thinking about that. Had it not been for De Ceglie's blunders we would have only conceded 1.

It will be one tough season nodoubt. Top 3 is the max we'd hope for (winning the league is out of the question IMO).

Conte is doing a pretty decent job so far, finally we have a "real" team instead of a bunch of clueless players running around.

Personally i think we'll end up 4th-5th this season (hope not) but i can see both Milan and Inter bouncing back with the experience that they have in these situations.

Rebuilding of this team will take time.....

Juve have a massive advantage of no euro competitions this season. We all agree that this is a building year with Conte using this season to put all his ideas/theories/philosophies in place and then having a real crack at the title next year, hopefully with a couple more high class players. But if the other teams who are in europe can get to the latter stages of their respective competitions and they need to start rotating their squad heavily to cope with the matches that need to be played we just might be in with a real shot.

But in the end only time will tell. Were doing well but we've done well at this time of year before. come February we'll know more.
