After all it worked great against Napoli.
Its not a shame to lose in napoli. They got an excellent, motivated team, that was much fitter then ours, with all their keyplayers, and they didnt had to worry about a midweek game in france.
Juve missed its best defender and attacker. Its only in form attacker, mind you.
I said before the game, not losing would have been a huge result, and most analysts didnt consider juve grabbing any points.

We cant economically support such a signing. Especially with the lost income from going out early in the CL
I read somewhere that, if we win the EL, the loss would be only 5M. is that true? (even if yes we couldnt get a 30M+ player unless hes from italy and we buy his half with tons of players included)

Considering how we are coping with these injury issues, yet still have a big lead in serie a and with half a leg in europaleague semi finals, i'd say we are doing just fine. Sure jack, our playing level is below what should be expected, and fitness levels are bad, but we must remember our limited financial resources. We cant keep 2 high class midfielders on the bench.
I miss giac.
Pereyra/Candreva/Bonaventura ??? how are our chances to get one of these for peanuts and still have cash for other needed positions?

I said that about the EL. But it doesnt change that like previous years, we dont spend over 25mil on a single player

I dont know about the others @Mark could fill you in

    We got toyed with and the scoreline is flattering. That's the shame.

    Even juventus can lose Jack. Be happy we got a shitload of valid excuses.

    The loss against fiorentina at the beginning of the season however, that was painfull
    As I said, it's not the loss, it's the way we lost. Fiorentina, the draw against Hellas and every time we sit back like morons. We do it way too often that it has become our approach, no fitness levels nor injuries, that is how we play.

    Sitting back at fiorentina takes away the best part of their attack. It was pretty effective.

    The first game, when we took the game to them, went up 2-0, and then had blunders allowing them back, and then rape us twice on the counter, THAT was awfull.
    Such painfull loss that was.

    Caceres, Ogbonna.... I want a new CB with huge talent. But there arent good CB's anymore. I'm putting my hope on ranocchia

    and Barzagli is 33. hes not gonna play on the highest level for much longer. with ranocchia you have a replacement right there waiting (i would rather Caceres on the RB in a back four)...

    You focus on details and intentionally ignore the big picture. I won't continue.
    That is simply cause we have a diffrent view on this "big picture"

    You talk of insufficient dept, jet here we are, still in europaleague and a load of points ahead in serie a, despite quite a bit of injuries.
    Sure, would have been diffrent if we had made CL knockouts and had a bad matchup there, but still. Our dept is not as bad as you try to make it, and you keep forgetting about budgets.
    Our formation is good, i dont share your sceptic view.
    Our coach is excellent, i dont give 2 shits about how offensive we play

    and Barzagli is 33. hes not gonna play on the highest level for much longer. with ranocchia you have a replacement right there waiting (i would rather Caceres on the RB in a back four)...
    Yes, exactly. Barzagli is so goddamn important for us. Ogbonna and Caceres cannot be future starters. Ogbonna could in 5 years if he learns alot.
    Ranocchia with the right coach, can.

    Ranocchia has been a trainwreck for a while, definitely can't fill in for Barzagli right now.
    They said that about most of Del Neri's juve, and it took Conte one summer to turn them into undefeatable monsters. Inter is a tranwreck. Their coach is unable to get the best out of his defenders.

    Conte can bring the best out of ranocchia
