3 games without a win is an unacceptable result for a team like Juventus. If we don't win our next game then it's crisis time.

A great tactical game by Ciro in my opinion. You can see how Van Gal was pissed off at the end of the game. Now, 6 points from the Israelis and we're in a good position.

Ciro is good in identifying team probles, but he is yet to provide a solution.

Maybe a call to Lippi would.
You can't expect things to change over night.

One thing that was much better tonight than it has been was covering of wide areas by the midfielders in defensive situations.

A lot of the probems against Bordeaux and Genoa were caused by the midfield not moving well enough.


Next step is to work on keeping possession and the midfield imposing themselves on the game more and controlling the tempo properly.

:agree:

You can disagree with Ciro's objective (not losing, rather than winning) but it is hard to criticise how he went about achieving his objective.

Truth is Van Gaal was pissed because ref whistled when Bayern was just going for a counter after the corner.

(He said that in interview later also, that ref should have let the situation to play on since (we/Juve) wasted time taking the last corner, some seconds where lost.

Well, the camo sub was spot on becaude we risked losing him for a red card and he was tired... but poulsen is not juve material. I would have preferred tiago or whoever but not poulsen.

IQ should have gon to the bench and ale introduced like in the min 65 or so.

But its fine, a draw in the most dioffcilt arena of the group stage is not so bad. Now we really need to get the 6 points against maccabi... no excuses.

You can think what you want about Poulsen, although I disagree with you about him.

However, please explain why you consider him inadequate instead of using the pathetic term 'Juve Material'.

My only beef with Ciro about this match, is the strikers game.

They were completely useless out there, They werent getting any scoring chances and that happens sometimes, but not once i saw them put pressure on Byern, trying to block passing lanes or chasing down the ball after they lost it.

Without our forword trying to slow Byern transition game, Every ball was instently passed to Bayern attackers with littel time for our midfield to try and close down space.

Less talking about Trez, since its not is style but IQ was on my nerves all night. He just seemed lazy. I would have throwen him out in the 60th minute.
