Who does success/failure fall upon? Individual players? The board, medics?

I'm not asking for his head, but criticism is definitely warranted and has been for the early part of this season.
To be fair a lot of the goals we have conceded came from unexplainable unforced errors. Did anyone really expect Buffon and Cheilini to turn out like this?

jesus fucking christ, jack alone is enough, what the fuck is up with you also ion this depressive shit thats mostly dead wrong ?

you got 1 thing right. untill this game, many players are not in form. Well tough luck, a coach can only do that much about that.

-The reason real "was bad" was because we tactically shut em down. plain simple
- The fact juve tactically neutralised real and while with 11 players, the better team, at bernabeu, is brilliant.
- Never recover ? lol and how about pogba's chance right after the restart ?
- juve got shafted by the ref, and with 10 still managed to even the game. yes thats pretty good. AT THE BERNABEU


seriously, gtfo

You are a fucking joke. please, i'm doing, stop it.


Pirlo, basically playing in front of the defence, cutting off the CAM and benzema for direct passing exchanges, and quickly setting up any counter we did.

yeah, remove him. create a gab to fill between pogba and vidal, so they'll play closer, and allowing the real wingers to reign on the wing.

Solution "let tevez play a bit deeper". Yeah sure. tevez is an agressive runner. But he knows shit about midfield positionning and how to cut off passing/running lines. especially compated to a strategist like pirlo.

Jesus man, wait a bit for the next shot or i die right here

put it like this. Our midfield was what kept us in the game.

we preserved that 3-1 at all time. if we didnt do that, gaynaldo and bale would just start linking with the cam/st, and score like 7 goals just as they do in spain.
i dont know if you watched the game on your 4inche mobile screen or what but it was juve who needed an goal for almost the whole game. our midfield didnt keep us in the game, madrid had it in the bag and played accordingly. so be happy we only lost 2-1 and keep telling yourself madrid couldnt score more bc of our great team.

juve is one of the biggest clubs on the world and pp who have supported the club for 20 years, expect and demand them to go through an easy group in cl. when we draw the worst team in cl and dont win at home to gala, and put ourselfs in a hopeless situation , people should be mad. you go ahead an be happy about it, just dont expect others to be.

so you gtf back to never never land where faries live and people fly and shoting down passing lanes is the most important trait of a midfielder.

there is some truth in the criticisms. Jvue losing last night isnt a big deal. it's a big deal because it messed up two games it should have won comfortabllly and now finds itself in a very awkward situation.

this is conte's fault

also he needs to figure out something about the early goals. it's become a pattern now in the CL to conede early goals. This is what macthes in last 5 that juve conceded an early goal in

:rofl: you are very amusing...

pirlo lacked the stamina and speed already to be able to take advantage of that whatever superb strategist positioning you claimed in such high speed game, not that I believe he has that advantage, still I have more confidence in tevez work rate and constant running to harass madrid's central mid play than this old washed out pirlo.

even more, you don't even bother to address what would happen if both llorente and tevez stayed :p for me it could gave us better tactical advantage.

"Conte: 'Had to laugh' at ref

Antonio Conte “had to laugh” at the refereeing decisions, but saw a good Juventus performance against Real Madrid.

The Coach changed from his usual 3-5-2 system to a 4-3-3 at the Bernabeu, but the 2-1 defeat saw Giorgio Chiellini harshly sent off at the dawn of the second half.

“Juventus were changed, but on a system that this team knows very well, as for a while we played with 4-3-3,” Conte told Sky Sport Italia.

“I always said this side can play 4-3-3. We used Claudio Marchisio on the right flank and tried to bring more solidity in defence with Martin Caceres, as we knew Real could be dangerous on the counter.

“Juventus were aggressive against Real Madrid. When you attack Real, you have to be aggressive and focused, as otherwise you lose possession and leave open space to people like Cristiano Ronaldo and Angel Di Maria. It’s an open invitation to a hammering.

“I think Real had a great deal of difficulty this evening. It is a painful match, but also lets us realise 10 against 11 we can still call on great organisation, heart and grit.”

Chiellini was shown a straight red card for what at first was thought to be an elbow on Ronaldo, but the referee’s gesture suggests it was for a clear scoring opportunity – again, strange when he was still 30 yards from goal.

“This game was certainly affected by some very, very dubious decisions, such as the Chiellini red card and a penalty on Arturo Vidal.

“There was absolutely not an elbow, but I still have to laugh, because if that can be considered a 'clear scoring opportunity’ then so is everything... I think we’d prefer a decision against us and a good performance rather than a decision in our favour and a bad performance, as it shows signs of the team’s improvement.”

The Vidal situation looked comical, as he kicked the turf, but Italian media claim replays show a slight trip to unbalance him beforehand.

“We look forward, see the glass half-full and proved that we belong on this stage. Everyone talked about a Juventus that was a disaster area, but tonight we saw a very good Juventus against one of the top contenders for the Cup,” continued Conte.

“We didn’t get hammered and if anything we threatened to punish Real Madrid. Tonight this team proved it can walk on this stage with the right tactical adjustments and at times played better than Real Madrid.

“I think this is a good boost for us to prepare the push for the final few games.”

In theory, Juventus could qualify even with a defeat to Real Madrid in Turin, as long as they beat both Copenhagen and Galatasaray.

Juve are now third in the group on two points behind Roberto Mancini’s Galatasaray on four."

Not long ago he said something about Pepes injury limiting his options and 4-3-3 not being viable :lol:

But... whatever. Now he's changed his mind for the better and restored my faith in him

Well done tonight Conte.
