Yeah.
If the opponent is handicapped in some way with injury after the three subs are made or left without a goalkeeper, as it was the case on Juve-Cesena, I'm fine with not pushing to score.
If it's a fair fight then I'd much rather prefer we win 5:0 than 3:0.
I think the results under Gasperini, and the first few matches under Ranieri when he was sorting them out made people underestimate them. They were written off for a CL spot completely by some members despite the team having both quality and experience. Consistent wins are helping them, even if the performances aren't there.

I'm not. Most of the teams in Serie A do take the foot off from gas-pedal at one point or another, Juve included. Whether you like it or not is a different question, I for example like that respect for football and your opponent, that 7:0 Palermo beating was really ugly last year.

I agree with Alen regarding the situation against Cesena with them losing their goalkeeper, when we were 2-0 ahead it was fine to let the match finish off comfortably.
Otherwise, outclassing the opponent enough to achieve a high score isn't showing disrespect in my opinion.
