Still better than Berna? :rofl:
Not comparable tbh, Berna could never play as RWB and that was what Cuadrado played tonight,so is really not worth the discussion, point is he was not efficient and has to improve if he is to play in this new formation...

Was an off night for Juan, had a couple of good moments but in truth a poor performance overall, yet again he wasn’t the only one underperforming tonight so let’s not overreact, good thing is we didnt lose and took an important point.

The point is that we waste our time playing him as an offensive outlet. It hurts us so much and allegri didnt notice.

Fuk his workrate man, fukc it. We are sacrificing having a creator or finisher instead of him.
Play him further back and use a real WC winger to command our line.

Everytime he flufs a play, you can see the hopelesness in dybala and higuain.

This man is killing us. One of the many things that is killing this team

Well I try to always look at what options he has when attacking. He is a very right footed player so his inclination is to always look for a cross. Problemo numero uno is that Higuain and Dybala offer nothing in the air. Cuadrado will literally not cross the ball unless Mario is on the field. So he just puts the ball on his left and then the move is over. Yes, that is a weakness of the player but he is still useful if you can put him in better situations.

If Mario is not playing, just put Juan at LW so he can have the option to shoot. Or don't play him.

I really can't understand Costa and Juan setting up like today when there is nothing to cross at. How many times today did they get the ball and look up, see nothing, then put their head down do a step over onto their weak foot? 5 times each?

So frustrating.

problemo numero uno is NOT that Dybala and Higuain over nothing in the air, it’s that cuadrado can’t seem to cross the ball beyond the defender standing right in front of him.

He cant fucking cross.


Yayyys for work rate tho

He's not exactly Beckham. But he has shown that he can cross. Is it a coincidence that it's literally only to Mandzukic though? The guy played wingback today. He's playing behind three other attackers. All three also produced nothing. Our CMs produce nothing. Can't even get in the box.

When Cuadrado comes down the right side and looks up, he's looking for a target to cross to first. When he goes onto his left foot it's usually because there's nowhere to cross and sometimes yes, he is a retard. But when he goes onto his left, it's over. We have to avoid that scenario when your *4th* best attacking option, your wingback, has to go onto his left foot.

All players have limitations and weaknesses.

Important point? This point changes literally nothing as our H2H is superior to sportings.



Again, Cuadrado is just not efficient enough in the final 3rd. I can't blame him tonight as he was a wing back so it's not on him.

i keep saying this guy and Madzukic should not be starting for us as wingers and in a 4-2-3-1/4-3-3 as they offer nothing on the field but people think am hating, our formation is 75% of the time redundant with them both as Mandz and him offer no creativity, at least mandz can score, Cuadrado whom i used to lijke very much in his early seasons in Fiorentina he was so good, dribbling, scoring, assisting but after he went to Chelsea and came to us its like the Asamoah effect happened to him, he basically forgot how to pass, score or even dribble sometimes, its amazing the transformation he has went through...

We didn't have any control in MF... why JGC is the most punished for our approach to this game

But honestly I would like to try a bit more DC in that wing with Mandzo in the other with AS

I dont agree with ur statement about higuain and dybala. At least not totally.

cuadrado crosses happen to find mandz more often cuz of tactical reasons. He is on the side which crosses will find him, and cuads crosses are not the best so in case he fluff them (which happens a lot) mandzukic happens to be there to clean the mess. Since he knows how to head a ball.

But i agree that if mandz is not on, cuadrado should be switched side for him to at least have his right foot to shoot.... Because on the right he is not only deprived of his better foot, but is forced to create, cross, assist... and he simply doesnt cut it. So if allegri is deatset on playing him, at least play him on the left for him to be able to shoot with hs favoured foot.

Personally im tired of him leading our line, because most attacks sadly go thru him, but if we are destined to see cuadrado on the starting line up until he retires, at least try him on the other side.

Cuadrado on the left side is pointless. He has never been a goal scorer. All that's gonna get us is him shooting to the sky 4 times per game. His vision is not particularly good to justify losing him on the right side to thread passes from the left either, for that, playing Bernardeschi on the left would be much better. If we want a right footed player on the left that's gonna have to be Mandzukic or Pjaca (when he is fully back). Cuadrado is a pure, old school, winger.

Cuadrado to miss Crotone
By Football Italia staff


Juventus have confirmed that winger Juan Cuadrado will miss their Serie A match against Crotone on Sunday with a thigh injury.

A medical report on Juve’s official website explained Cuadrado missed training on Friday due to “an inflammation in his right adductor muscle” and will consequently be out of contention this weekend.

Elsewhere, Federico Bernardeschi and Giorgio Chiellini “continue to work separately”, while Marko Pjaca will take part in the Bianconeri’s Primavera game against Sassuolo

I am not sure why are coach and players trust most of our attacks on his foots, every time he is fielded, is it because of his stamina? His performance in training? Or because of the fact that he was our MVP the moment he arrived. We are growing to be dependant on him and Mandzukic and dread the moment they won't be fit.

:hihi: riding him to the ground like a horse, his burning out he can't light himself on fire to keep everyone else warm.

Your brother looks like a homeless person, but Cuads is a good guy, he sure bought him something to eat.

He's just wearing them in italian cities and when he was in Frankfurt, because he thinks he doesn't get robbed wearing those rags.

Don't italians also love those destroyed jeans? From what i've seen they overdo it often and go completely over board with it.

Oh, and i bet @lgorTudor walks past jeans like those on a daily basis :p
