I think we were fortunate tonight. First of all, fortunate to have Buffon save probably 2 goals. To keep us in the match when already down a goal.

I think Max went there for a draw and got 3 points. I don't think we played great as a team. We were saved by individual performances instead. But that's football for you. And when you have as much heart as our players have then sometimes you get more than you deserve. I think it was a decent tactic from Max. Certainly defensive.

He should have made subs earlier. I don't know what Mandzukic's injury is like but I don't think he was leaving the field tonight unless he got hurt. I don't know about starting Evra instead of Sandro. And Hernanes at regista was risky. He actually showed more willingness to challenge then I ever remember him having.

We desperately needed this win though.

Allegri confirmed that Mandzukic is ok, nothing serious.

What a great victory!!! Came back after 3 horribles serie a games and an unfair gol of man city in their stadium.... With balls from everyone, from allegri for starting with a 4-3-1-2 that became mostly in a 4-4-2... From all our players showing this hungry, running every balls... In some parts there was till 3 juve players tackling at the sale time... Just love, just JUVE

Also, really impressed with Sturaro's efforts after poor first 20 minutes or so. He was a different player in 2nd half

I heard somewhere we have only lost one time in our last 10 meetings against English opposition, feelsgoodmang

I can't remember that far back though.

City today, Chelski x2 in the groups, City x2 in the EL. But I think Chelsea and Arsenal beat us once each in the K.O stages before all that.

This feels so good, we needed this victory to much and it came against a fucking EPL team, how sweat it's that.
Now let's keep the momentum and put the things in their place in Serie A.
