I think because of our attitude and approach. We tend to struggle against the smaller sides because we don't afford them the respect they deserve, and assume that we are going to win anyway. It's a mental block.

I guess if we overestimated them, we'd be more focused and alert during our matches, thus eliminating those silly errors that cost us goals and points.

Silly errors haven't got anything to do with how much we respect them. They're errors. It could happen to anyone, any game.

I think we actually respect the opposition too much in Europe. See the difference between the 1st and 2nd legs against Copenhagen. We spent way too much time in our side of the pitch for a team who's playing such minnows. Sure, we shouldn't be arrogant and attack them with full power from the first minute, but we only seemed to put pressure on them when it was too late in the game in the 1st leg. Compare that with the 2nd leg. Same goes last year against Nordsaejlllalalland.

Conte coach has won the record of ten games won with last game against Cagliari, always Antonio Conte and Juventus with us

 

[JuveJay]

How apt that they plastered Vialli with the Union Jack.

I dunno, but we certainly played a lot better without him.

Think about how much better we would progressively play if he was perpetually not on the sidelines

The potential is limitless...

I hate watching the team drop deep when the opponents have the ball so frustrating especially against lower teams. I miss the pressing we used to do in 11/12 with the 4-3-3 so much.

This is funny but i seen a stat on our counter attacks and we have 0 goals from counter attacks this season. A counter attack is one of the most important tools any team can have and watching us counter attack is just cringe worthy at times.

Conte has to much emphasis on not conceding rather than going all out for the win. I hope we see a change in philosophy soon those short corners are still embarrassing to watch still too.

“He is a phenomenon, unique, I have never seen a Coach like him. He is also a bit 'loco’,” Tevez has told today’s edition of the Gazzetta dello Sport about Antonio Conte.

Do you like anything at all about this current Juve?

Is his username a coincidence? Is that really you, Vialli?

How?

Not fielding the strongest team against smaller sides. He subbed in fucking Motta when we were drawing with Copenhagen.

That's not true. We have always fielded our best available 11 for CL. Motta only came in in the last minutes of the match and IIRC due to an injury.

So what do the anti 3-5-2 fags have to say about our current 11 game winning streak?

Oh I know, "but but Serie A is weak!" "oh we were knocked out of the CL"…fact is 3-5-2 is a formation of kings and noblemen.

Those are both true though.

It works very well in Serie A but we have to use a different formation in Europe. It is no coincidence that Conte switched to a back four for the Madrid games.

 

[Jem83]

That the Serie-A is weak is a great exaggeration. The image of the league took another huge blow when we crashed out of the CL, undoubtedly, but keep in mind that squads such as Inter's and Milan's are struggling in this league (they have many players that are very good), and that Napoli beat Arsenal - current Premier League leaders - in this season's CL. Tevez, in his most recent interview, says that it's the most difficult league he's ever played in.

The EPL has more quality overall, but Serie-A is still a very difficult league and the difference isn't as great as your ordinary "Goal.com" poster and the english media would have you believe.

 

[Klin]

I'm not saying it's not competitive, Jem, but that has got more to do with the weak part.

 

[Trequartista]

The 3-5-2 doesn't work in the CL because the teams there play differently, mostly using highly skilled wingers, which teams don't have in Serie A. Italian teams tend to play narrow formations, which is why the 3-5-2 works well against them. The failure of the 3-5-2 in Europe has little to do with the strength of Serie A, it's about playing styles.

 

[JuveJay]

The difference is mental, many teams are scared of us these days in Serie A. Cagliari gave it a go and had us on the ropes for a little while but still got smashed, our closest rivals got smashed, it must be demoralising for the rest of the league.
