Pogba. He's the only such player we had since... Pogba 6 years ago. Fagioli could be it too but why he doesn't have 10 played matches already this season is another story
You just need anyone who comes onto their right foot. You could even put Cuadrado at LW to come inside and Kostic at LB. It's not like we are giving up any defending there, who gives a fuck.

I just can't understand how he expects Kostic to hit the 2 strikers in a flat 4. There's no one opening space for him. It's literally Sunday league, here you are left footed go stand there and inshallah.

I would call him the worst coach in the world but he doesn't deserve the title. He is the anti-coach.

If he isn't sacked I'm just going to stop watching this garbage.
Actually I would call that a skillset. Driving people away from watching the sport altogether takes some doing.

Impressive skills by Allegri here. World class anti-football coach.

Well I consider myself to be pretty optimistic guy but what we have seen so far doesnt leave me with much to hope for. Its just reality of situation, we are just falling deeper and deeper. Whenever I think we hit the rock bottom, we dig ourselves a bit more into the ground. At this point players must be mentally down, lost some confidence. It would take a miracle to turn this around. I dont see many positive signs.
Oh I never said there is anything positive or any reason to believe it will change. I just hope.

I lost all desire to discuss finer points, tactics etc. He was sacked, Sarri was sacked, Pirlo was sacked, he should've been sacked again by now. As I fan I feel more helpless than ever so I choose to distance myself a bit. I follow very few people on twitter for concrete news, I watch the games, leave a comment just to type down what's going through my brain and then stop thinking about it until the next game.

We need a bit of continuity, fluidity, bravery, consistency. To have the whole team healthy for a month, string 4-5 good games, create some good habits to fall on and then I believe we'd be better equipped to handle players missing etc.

That’s some dose of hopium you got there.
I’m an optimistic guy as well, but I cannot stand incompetence and every aspect of our club right now screams incompetence.
Hoping things will just straighten themselves out is not going to work.
It's the Inshallah approach - it's very popular in Egypt. Everything will somehow, Inshallah, miraculously work itself out.

Its a pretty good skill Ngl. He should be a therapist. My mental health improved quite a bit after I stopped caring as much about football and Juve.

Yeah, no point in watching the games if you dont hope for positive outcome. But in the long term, concerning how this season will pan out, I lost hope. I tend to avoid any sport related news as well while we suck so much. Just moving on to the next game.

I don't understand it either, Kostic needs space, and he can't create it himself. We tried Cuads once at LW this season in the first game, maybe we can try it again. I don't think he had a better game this season than that one

Obviously kostic dribbling skills is not the greatest and not taking on full back.

But I was, so why the need to chime in if it was besides the point?
because it's a forum to discuss football, not a private chat room, and also that point i reacted to was wrong. no team is out of the title race in round 2 (or 5) if they are capable of challenging for it. and if they are already out at round 2 (or 5) they were never in it to begin with. it's a simple and valid point about football in general.

as for juventus, we were never in the title race, never for a second. round 2 or 5 weren't some turning points, we never challenged for the scudetto, just like udinese or torino (5th @ matchday 5, 3 points off the pace) despite having positive starts. this juventus doesn't have the quality to challenge for the scudetto, regardless of the coach. and before someone twists my words, that's not an excuse for the terrible job allegri does. it is what i said: this juventus is nowhere near scudeto material, period. we need above all a few very, very good mercati, then some cool heads in the management, a positive aura around the club, a stadium filled with supportive supporters, and of course a fitting coach to turn it around. i give it 2-3 years at least before we have a good shot on the league title again.
