That’s why there’s no real planning to win CL, you need a coherent group of players who mesh together, a genius master tactician and other variable factors, such as luck, injuries, etc. Someone above mentioned the German model, they understood it all, take your time building a winning team, sign players with purpose, don’t act on weird impulsive needs that don’t fit your strategy, and mainly, DO NOT sell your super players. Juve directors can learn a thing or 2 from the German model. Until then, we’ll keep watching others win the CL.

Capello: Guardiola got it all wrong
Fabio Capello gives Thomas Tuchel credit for Chelsea’s Champions League victory, but claims Pep Guardiola got it all wrong for Manchester City. ‘John Stones can’t defend.’

Kai Havertz scored the only goal in Porto this evening, giving the Blues the trophy with a coach who only replaced fired Frank Lampard in January.

“Chelsea owe Tuchel a great deal, because he showed that they had made the right investments and got the best out of these players that they spent a lot of money on,” Capello said on Sky Sport Italia.

“In my view, Guardiola got the starting XI wrong. Gundogan in front of the defence couldn’t act as a midfield filter. Stones is a player who can’t defend and Gundogan couldn’t provide a filter.

“The team looked far more balanced in the second half, but Manchester City gifted 45 minutes to Chelsea and could easily have been 2-0 down by the time they changed.”

It is now a decade since Guardiola last won the Champions League, when he was still on the Barcelona bench.

Alessandro Del Piero was won over by the midfield work-rate of N’Golo Kante.

“I had cramp on his behalf after about 20 minutes. He was always there, one-against-one, clearing everything up. Looking also at the games that took Chelsea to the Final, Kante was decisive.”

Even Giroud has won a CL now (and a world cup) after years of mediocrity with Arsenal

Buffon and his luck in CL , damn. Had he left us in 2006, he'd have easily have won a couple of CL's.

Juve don't manage the club like a club that wants to win the CL. Cheap quick fixes square pegs trying to fit in round holes. Spending a combined €200 million in Higuain and Ronaldo and both players not fitting the team at all.

i think we try to skip steps in building a CL team, we get close and then management just signs big players to try to bridge the gap that don't suit the team.

name me some attacking players that have improved or played to their potential in the Agnelli era, i can only think of Tevez.
