[CL] JUVENTUS 0-0 Sevilla [14th September, 2016] (7 Viewers)

[Post Ironic]

And kudos to Sevilla, their game was organised perfectly.

Of course a really ugly playstyle, but also extremely effective, and difficult to play against.

But that's why you need skilled players on the pitch to break down the organization.

WTF was Allegri thinking with Asa, Lemina, Evra on the pitch.

Quite clearly it should have been Sandro and Pjanic on there, with one of Lemina and Asa.

Chiellini: “The positive thing from tonight is that we were compact and organised, so we didn’t allow Sevilla any chances"

He should be mad as fuck for not winning. This mentality is why juve will never win cl.

 

[Pirlo's Beard]

Damn. This tournament is jinxed. Only way we can win is if we face Benfica in the final.

Benfica would end their curse against us, making us the new curse team. And i'd retire from football and take up bleach drinking

It all depends on what Lyon do against Sevilla now. Hopefully they don't get a win.

Fuck winning, fuck CL. Clean sheets all the way baby.

There is a reason no other top team uses 3 CBs.

Not only we have that extra CB but we also prefer a more defensive minded CM instead of creativity.

Allegri doesn't use this team's strength at all. Moreover, he doesn't learn. This team was cut for 352 some time ago but he could easily try something different now. It's disgusting to watch Evra trying to dribble and Cheillini's crosses once you realize who's on the bench. Cuadrado, Alex Sandro, Pjaca. Throw in Pjanic as well who's the biggest mystery of the evening to me.

It looks like Allegri gives up CL for Serie A, because there's no other explanation for rotating in a CL opening game. Watch us play the best team against inter and actually kill them at the weekend xD

He might be. He's lost for words like all of us. Except he cannot say "wtf Max?" freely like us here

So am I but he has choked so many times before that I don't know how he will get over this handicap of his.

Other players have. Maybe Higuain will, maybe he won't. No sense giving up on him now. We're stuck with him, so we might as well cheer him on.

Why are we still playing a back 3? The reluctance to move on to a new attacking formation is just killing me. Clearly a back 3 was not needed tonight so why not change formation in the second half?

 

[Salvo]

Wow this is only one game. Everyone is talking like the whole group is decided now.

 

[Mike-e-y]

This may sound a stupid suggestion but if Allegri INSISTS on having 3 CBS on the pitch then we need to play Bonnuci in the Lemina role and use an extra attacking player to give us more options. Throw Lemina and Khedira as CMS, Pjanic as an AM, cuadrado as an AMR, Dybala as a AML and Higuain up front.


When our back line is not even being remotely tested why are we having 3 players sitting there????????

 

[Jem83]

Worth noting he had 1 good chance, which he nearly converted. And a couple of half chances at best. Surrounded by defenders, and given mostly pathetic service

Yes Higuain has a big choking mentality in finals. No, I don't think it meant anything tonight. Most strikers fail to score when given 2-3 chances spread over 90 minutes.

Yep. And as far as I could tell, it was one big chance (the header), and a couple of half-chances which when you looked at the replays were not as big as they seemed.

But yeah. Choker, I guess...

I'm surprised people aren't speaking more of how little we actually created, because to me, that was the main issue tonight. Like @Bianconero_Aus touched upon earlier, we wasted 70 minutes just messing about. And as far as the other 20 goes, we only created two clear-cut chances: Higuain's header and Sandro's header.

We have to create more. That's the problem. We have issues in midfield.

a mystery.

 

[JCK]

I still don't understand some here, who calls this a silly meltdown. This result means that the last game will be about 1/8 or EL. It's truely pathetic.

They haven't realised yet the importance of those two points we dropped tonight.

Dani Alves: “We created several chances to score and played pretty well, but games don’t always go the way you want them to"

No disagreements here.

Only valid reasons would be fitness concerns.

 

[Bianconero_Aus]

Damn. This tournament is jinxed. Only way we can win is if we face Benfica in the final.

And that would be the game that Benfica finally lift their curse.

I'm pretty sure everyone realizes that the road to qualification is now much tougher.
