[CL] JUVENTUS 3-2 Olympiacos (November 4th 2014) (11 Viewers)

[Alen]

Win or bust. A draw (even though it would mathematically still keep us in contention to qualify in second place) will not be good enough in my opinion.

A draw is really bad.

Atleti and Oly are on 6, while we are at 3. Atletico will most probably beat Malmo. If we draw with Oly, then it's Atleti 9, Oly 7, Juve 4, with Oly having an additional 0.5 pts on us due to the h2h. Then even if we beat Malmo in Sweden and Atletico beat Oly in Madrid, the situation will be: Atletico 12, Oly 7, Juve 7. Then in the last round we'll have to beat Atletico and hope that Olympiacos fails to beat Malmo in Greece. Imo, with a draw we're as good as eliminated.
Only a win counts.

dont see us getting out of the group stages

 

[Robee]

Of course a draw won't do... We should be ashamed if we don't win on tuesday; another elimination from the group stages is the last thing we need...

Forza Juve, destroy those greek f*cks...

I think the guys are ready for this. Yesterday's win should have boosted our morale after last weeks' struggles and I think the major figures on this team are reaching their ideal form and, after latest polemics, should want to show something. I hope Allegri can manage the team well ahead of this match from a motivational point of view, regardless of the men he choses.

Can't make a prediction though, I've seen this team choke so many times on this competition.

I dont think they are ready for anything
DAI DAI, is not motivational at all

 

[Linebreak]

They are, they're always ready for another uninspiring nonchalant performance in Europe.

Considering our recent form and style of play (or rather lack of it) I think we're already out when you add the "CL factor" here. I can see a 1-1 as most likely result and it ensures we won't reach 2nd place. So much for the "gradual" change from Allegri that it's already too late . It's difficult to see us winning this one when we can't get past Genoa or Sassuolo.

Allegri can only help himself if he's not starting Llorente, Pirlo and Ogbonna.

 

[FuriaCeca]

Like most of you here I'm not too optimistic about this. I totally see us making life harder for ourselves by either not scoring, conceding, making vital mistakes that will lead to us drawing or even losing this one. Draw is the most likeable result for me. I think by this stage we all agree we are shit in the CL.

Atkinson for Juve-Olympiacos

Juventus-Olympiacos will be officiated by Martin Atkinson in the Champions League.

The English referee has been appointed to Tuesday night’s game at the Juventus Stadium in Turin.

This will be a decider for Group A, as Olympiacos and Atletico Madrid are joint top with six points, while Juve and Malmo tral on three.

Great an Englishman

We won't win.

Bet your houses on that.

No, but I'd like to bet your house on it.

How we let ourselves get into these situations almost all the time in Europe

So if Ogbonna and Asa aren't available for this game, are we really going to see Licht at rcb?

Massimiliano Allegri sta aspettando di capire se martedì contro l'Olimpiacos avrà a disposizione Martin Caceres. L'uruguiano potrebbe recuperare per la sfida contro i greci, visto che anche Ogbonna non sta benissimo e per la sfida di martedì c'è un po' di emergenza in difesa. Allegri potrebbe essere costretto ad effettuare un cambio anche sulla fascia sinistra con Asamoah che ieri ha accusato un risentimento al ginocchio. Vista, inoltre, l'assenza di Evra, se il numero 22 juventino dovesse non farcela il tecnico livornese potrebbe

Caceres might be ready and if Asa isn't Pereyra will play as lwb
