I think we didn`t play as I expect Juve to play but lets not forget that this is just the 1st game of the season and to get to the peak on the first game is almost impossible!
I expect Juve to improve at each game and after something like 12 games we will see the real Juve which I predict will win the scudetto and hopefully the CL too.
By the way I think I am the only one saying it but I didn`t like Zlatan`s debut eigther. well it`s not that I didn`t like it but I expected him to do more. First of all his goal was great he got pass 2 defender and scored it was the keeper`s fault but I have got to say Zlatan did great on that one. I also liked his first touch of the ball but what I didn`t like is that he got a ball I don`t remember from who he got it but he got the ball with just one defender in the way and he slowed down the move 2 defenders got back to the defence with 3 defenders total in his way then he acted and tried to get pass them and imidiatly shoot the ball instead of doing it directly when he got the pass!
there is alot of room for improvement,that's exactly what i'm saying.
if we play like we did against brescia we'll lose against teams who play direct football and we'll certainly fall to roma,milan,inter and lazio again.but if, like you said, we steadily improve then this team does have the potential to take the scudetto chase to the wire.
i just simply don't agree with those who say we're already in a position to win the scudetto and CL.
personally i was impressed with zlatan and the goal was a good start even though he didn't really do all that much in the game.however there were a couple of positives i think we could take from there and there're certainly indications that he could settle into serie a sooner than expected.
