I guess we should stop engaging in discussions once and for all then. Shut the forum down, agree on everything, stop feeling and caring, etc...
Nah, but the you got to admit that all these experts we have here are very impatient and ungreatfull, Conte has done wonders with this team and now when the going got a bit rough everybody is jumping ship and asking for a new captain out of panic. A bit more balls and standin next to your coach would be nice, 45 days or so can't be enough to throw him out specialy when we have won most of our games and considering how he has done in the past two years.

I'm starting to pity you.
Do that, and please pray for me too, twice on sundays.

I don't think anyone wants him gone or fired. We haven't even reached January yet. However, if by February we are already out of the CL and behind in Serie A, more questions will have to be asked.

If the referee doesnt drink or smoke something before the game in Turin then we will win for sure. Already imagine what kind of atmosphere will be at Juventus stadium.... 40+ K fans angry because of the mistakes in Bernabeu (red card, vidal penalty) and hungry for points !!! FORZA JUVE !!!

Yeah if the season goes to shitter I agree, but it's still not over and we still have all the chances. Have some faith :p

The behind serie A is out of the question though, it's not even november and we are just couple of points from first and are in top 3, definetly no need to panic at all.

Criticism is okay, but one cannot be critical of Conte's Real Madrid performance, he was surprising somewhat. His formation, tactics and subs were spot on.

Criticism for the first 2 games, however, and our general Serie A performances this season is fair game though.

Ok, then we're done, I guess. I am wrong & you are right.
And again clearly that wasn't the point. Being right or wrong in this matter is irrelevant. Vidal was better player last night as it happens on almost every night in direct comparison between those two ever since he arrived, but calling someone more/less balanced simply because his/her opinions are generally more/less of your liking is demeaning.

I agree, though our serie a campaign is a bit freakish, we played good, we didn't win or won hard because of freak error, we played badly we won by a freak ref call.

    I'm more against the doom and gloom not the actuall criticizm. It's as if sudden Conte doesn't know what he is doing. Give a man a little faith, give him all the season and then judge, not in the first months of it. Criticizm is ok, but to a certain point, he definetly knows more then us and he showed in the past that he has what it takes to win. So there is no need for this criticizm to overgrow into things like sackings and etc. (not talking about you, just in general how most people here are starting to talk)

    He's still the same coach and we will only know was he right or wrong only by the end of the season or when we actually crash out of CL not before.

    I don't know maybe it's just me, but I would rather wait for the results then to prematurly go for the doom scenario.
    I don't know what doom and gloom you are talking about.

    I know its still early but in the second game I would like to see something like this

    ----------Buffon
    Licht-Barz-ogbonna-caceres
    -----vidal-pirlo-pogba
    --------marchisio
    -----Tevez---Llorente
    Swap marchi and Tevez and replace marchi with Vucinic.

    Replace Ogbonna with bonbon, need his ball playing.

    Swap Pogba and pirlo, replace pirlo with Asamoah.

    Marchisio was a ghost... he had 2 shots on goal and that was it... didn't dribble past a single player... didn't have a good through ball or something like that... and lost the ball a lot of times... including a almost 1 on 1 situation where he couldn't control the ball..

    This could all be because of the fact that he was played as a AMC? I don't know...

    Imagine a Juventus where we have 11 players with the skills and grinta of players like Tevez, Pogba, Vidal and Pepe.... Llorente and Marchisio were the opposite of that yesterday

    I would much rather see Marchisio than Asa. Given the way asa has been playing lately I feel like he is a liability

    Llorente did a good job for what he was given and scored where as Marchisio was played to close down their left flank which was also done. Rewatch the game and then comment
