And contrary to what many have been saying, they are not reliant on one player. Selling Cavani was a blessing for them, they have strengthened everywhere and started playing as a team.

Yes, they have. They should be taken very seriously, as @radekas can confirm

According to reports, Poli will miss the next 2-3 games.

So that's Stephan, De Sciglio, Motolivo, Abate , Poli ,Pazzini, Silvestre, Bonera all out with injuries.

For the last 2 years we are constantly being blighted with injuries.

yep. kinda nice our games didn´t overlap with napoli´s this season (yet)

I know that you don't agree with me but I see them as the strongest side so far, they are ruthless. Their energy reminds me of our first season with Conte.

I got the impression Montolivoil's injury was pretty bad. Any news on that?

Sounds like Juve 3 years ago.

I see the staff at the famous milan medical lab doing their jobs

Hopefully more to come. As the good old saying goes, the more the merrier.

the strongest side or the strongest side besides juve?
because i certainly agree with the second one and never said anything different.
i still think that, considering the opposition, our 7 points are more impressive than their 9 points. furthermore i didn´t see anything scary today. atalanta created a lot of chances in the first half.
i´m looking forward to the cl and next weekend. a shame milan are going to miss so many players.

 

[AFL_ITALIA]

Does anyone have a video of the Milan penalty incident?

 

[89man]

He pulled up straight away.
I'm hoping he just didn't want to risk further injuring it, with such a busy schedule of games ahead.

Not sure what the injury prognosis is yet.

Juve are strong, I never denied that or said otherwise and it is ridiculous to even assume that I had the thought. However, Napoli are really strong, a team built to win trophies. The first half is a good proof on that, Chievo were there but Napoli could handle them and then punish them in the end, sort of like what we did to Lazio in the Super Cup. I am not comparing encounters either, just making a reflection and emphasizing the fact that the title is not as easy as many are saying.

Wouldn't it be ironic if Napoli went on to win the league, after letting go of the highly talented Uruguayan.

Although it would be devastating on the nerves, for an entire season, my dream scenario would be that they really do try, give it everything they got, but that we clinch it on the final day of the season. 2002-style. Leaving hungry and wishful Napoli-hearts broken, and then Hamsik leaves.

Indeed, however once injuries and tiredness set in, Napoli have a very tough Champions League group and any injury to the spine of their team could cause them alot of problems. Juventus have a deep squad with quality depth, who can cope with a long season, can Napoli? That's yet to be shown as even last year they didn't have Champions League football but still faltered at the tail of last season.

You guys must have a soft spot for Lazio since that day in 2002.

 

[JCK]

I won't be surprised if they do and I said it before, Higuain is a better player than Cavani, better technique and more clinical. Cavani is a beast, a work horse, you name it but when it comes to a team with roles as modern football is, Higuain is more suitable.

Deep squad? I see our bench extremely lame to be honest and it seems that Conte agrees with me. Padoin? Giovinco? purleez. Then again relying on injuries the opponents injuries to win titles never brings any titles.

 

[Nicholas]

Llorente, Marchisio/Pogba, Isla and Ogbonna are hardly lame.

All five would start for every other team in Italy.

Llorente
Marchisio let's see his form after the lengthy injury
Isla, we saw him today
Ogbonna we saw him against Lazio

 

[Nicholas]

Are you laughing about Llorente because of Conte's supposed treatment of him or that you don't rate him?
