Few wins in a row can be called lucky. But not fucking 8 with 8 clean sheets in a row. The team grew in confidence compared to mental wreck we were at the start. I see a lot of improvements in our gameplay.

12 - Juventus have kept 12 clean sheets after their first 17 games in Serie A this term, only one side had recorded an higher such tally at this stage in the history of the competition: Cagliari in 1966/67 (13). Shutter.(Opta)
Luck?

I see zero improvements in the attacking phase. They are solid defensively because we put 11 players behind the ball from the start, which is what I figured Allegri would do once results weren’t going our way. Won’t work against good teams, but I guess we don’t really care about Europe.

Today we played a decent game. We did not dominate, but it was a deserved win, we were the better side. Cremonese game though was horrible, that was not any kind of improvement.

That same Cagliari team also holds the record for least conceded goals after 17 rounds (5).
They finished 6th that season :D

I like that it drives you mad that we have won 8 games in a row so you are looking for all the odd reasons because the team simply picking up, gelling or whatever isnt even a possibility in your head.

1st game after 50 day break. We went on a break with 2 big derby wins where we played excellent footy.

The weirdest thing about outers is the obsession to pester to death anyone who finds any kind of positive or hope around Allegri, the club etc. Like I get it dude, you don't like him, you think he's washed, he has to be sacked. Others can't have a conversation among themselves, they have to pester.

Even when you stop replying to them they stalk you, they can't stand anything that is not negative, cynical, toxic

I imagine dingus like this after every win

Law of averages tells me these poor performances with results are all fine and well, until your luck runs out or something else breaks. But then again, the nature of this league is such that most of these sides can’t even string together passes or shoot the ball, so maybe it will continue for a while.
Well, for one thing, the team has forgotten how to chase a game if it needs to.

That said, Juve has the additional quality to make a difference when things are on the line. And the difference between decent teams and really good teams is consistency and an ability to find a way to win late when it looks like you should have dropped points.

It's winning ugly. But that's about the best this squad can hope for right now.

If I was a mod, I'd give short bans to negative people who complain after wins, and long bans to those who complain after 8 straight league wins.

As for our team, this is not a good team. If we are to play in the CL group stage again, we'll finish 3rd behind PSG and Benfica once again.
But that makes our current streak even more impressive. I expect us to (comfortably) lose against Napoli and end this streak, but it's still gonna be an impressive one. What I like the most is the belief installed into the players. In 5 of our last 8 wins we won with a late goal. One scored in the 60th minute, but the other 4 very late in the game. Belief is what we lacked a lot. Quite the contrary, we never believed in ourselves and kept conceding silly goals once we took the lead. This improvement is mostly on the coach.

Maybe he deserves more time after all. The team was crippled by injuries like no other team before, yet he somehow manages to keep the shit together.

There are like 5-8 posters on this forum who are still breathing through Allegris straw. Dont think that a random and extremely ugly 8 game win stream against Monza, Cremo, Udinese and other teams where noone has ever heard of any of their players, is gonna change anything.

He humiliated our club 3 CL seasons in a row and he will obviously get sacked once the club is ready and sane to do so. Meanwhile its waiting game and enjoying the show in here.

I think he’s here to stay, honestly. The club has had multiple chances to get rid of him so he will remain throughout his contract at least, IMO.
