wat?

He wants 4-3-3 now. Pepe being injured is not an excuse. Conte could use Giovinco.

So, say Conte completely loses it and we end up 6th, do we start looking for a replacement?

I think give him a few months next season first.

We can say, this our first "crisis" with Conte in more than two years. I think we have to respect and understand that, as a coach, Conte still is young and, compared to others, inexperienced. The same holds valid for our team, not all our individual players though. If we still see this as a project of building a team, that effectively can compete in Europe in the years the come, we have to get used to challenges like these. To me, Conte is as essential to the project as the team.

we really have some of the dumbest fans out there, to want this great man gone is beyond stupid, hows it conte's fault rizzoli decides it's payback time and buffon goes on auto-destruct mode?

Any more adjectives? You haven't really explained any of the real problems out there, which are how this team is concentrating in a football match. It's the basics of football that are allowing teams like Fiorentina and Milan to have a sniff at Juve when they are outplayed for most of the match. Bonucci making clumsy passes back to his goalkeeper/Buffon passing the ball to the opposition just outside of the penalty area/Buffon spilling shots to the striker right in front of him aren't down to Conte, the team was set up and should have cruised that game. These players are letting the club down.

Yet another thing I said during preseason that we can easily crash out of Europe.

So, 1 of your predictions did come true? Congrats, because I seem to remember a few that didn't.

Our problem is the team and not individual players. When did we see this again? - oh yeah, it was pre Conte.

80% of the goals we have conceded so far have been due to individual mistakes from our players. So how is it possible to say the problem is the team & not the individuals?

I think there is a distrust between keeper and defence now, which is not good. Buffon's confidence is low more than I would blame old age.

And those are? Season is long and most of these will come true in the end.

I'd stick to to Conte even if we finish out of Europe, which we clearly wont though. The team does not something of a facelift though. The players are not suddenly lacking in quality, but many a manager has recognized that a football team has only a short cycle (sure there are exceptions). As I still consider our coach to be the best cog in this team, we simply have to trust in Conte to lift the team's concentration and in the summer we can change in personell. Way too early for panic though.

Who knows, a dissapointing season could very well lift the current squad into a higher gear next season.

its all because of Conte you can't accept a defeat. its crazy to talk about his sacking... seriously

 

[Elvin]

so true.

 

[LiquidPLP]

Sacking him would be the worst thing there could be done. He seems to be lost in this mess right now but it's his job to handle it.

 

[Salvo]

January transfer market will be interesting I think.

6 wins and a draw in 8 matches is a crisis?

The players are jaded and need a firm kick up the ass, they have been taking things for granted ever since we pummeled Lazio.

Conte set the bar so high that after one defeat, it's immediately sacking talk!

So many players underperforming for Juve in almost all games this season - that certainly has to do with something else. Or do you really believe that players, people here call world class, all of a sudden sucks ass?

 

[Deep C]

Lot of Zamparinis up in here.

Also, dear followers of the holy 4-3-3 grail, would we have not conceded those 4 goals if we played 4-3-3 yesterday?

 

[Hængebøffer]

Who wants him sacked?
We will continue to concede with this mentality no matter what formation we play.

Plenty in the match thread(s), IIRC.
