The man is definitely winning us the league. With a weaker squad than Inter and Napoli.
If someone told us during our peak, that Danilo, a player who was struggling both at Real and City, would captain Juve in a title challenging season, that a former brick layer will be at the heart of our defense or that Milan reject Locatelli would be important player in the middle, or Rabiot or... we could go on and on. Mister turning water into a fine wine.

If we win it, it will be my favourite Scudetto after the 11/12 one. Followed by the year we had that crazy comeback, 2017 I think.
2015/16 for me is the best one until now. We were trailing +12 pts at one point and even hit relegation places. Everyone wrote us off. Then we started climbing up. However, unlike current team, that one had far more talent. Winning with this group, when all the time for some players I have a vibe they are playing football as a hobby after their working hours as bricklayers, plumbers, or electricians, might even top it for me.

it was also exciting cuz we got to showcase new talent that season with dybala and mandzukic. pogba also went on to have a monster second half of season that year and looked like he would be a be a player to dethrone zidane as best french mid.

that really was a good season.

Throaters and spitters... discuss the video!!
:delpiero:

There's one thing this video doesn't really mention. We change our ways depending on the opposition. The way we press differs game by game by how Allegri sees the opposition. The number one thing Allegri always does is nullify the strengths of the opposition. And then he builds from there, while keeping the same structure of the team so everyone knows and is familiar with their roles.

On attack. What I really like, is how he relies on individual quality. There's a simple and secure set of movement to build from the back up to a certain point. And from there on he trusts his players to find a solution. That makes it really hard for the opposition to play against us. As there's no set of particular movement. A goal can come from anywhere, at any time. Often by individual quality. Even when it looks like we can't pass the halfway line.

Sometimes, he sees weaknesses in the opposition. That is how we scored against Inter, twice. Two very similar goals. Straight from the training ground. Attack Darmian.

One thing I also like is how he manages the game. The whole 90 minutes. We often see us "struggling" for 60 minutes, barely playing, while the opposition tire themselves out. Meanwhile, while they're pressing us all over the pitch, we never lose the ball in a dangerous situation. We rather wait for them to tire themselves out and hit them when the balance swings our way.

I'm really enjoying this Juve under Allegri. And I can't wait until we add even more quality.

I can smell another CL final coming.

Almost no one defended him last year dumbass. Just look at the fricking poll.
They need to invent a new word to describe how dumb you are.
You really love to confirm your title of being champion dumb & dumber as you proudly have it as username.
"Almost no one" doesn't mean "no one" even your peanut brain should comprehend that.
I was replaying to the member who was in the "almost no one" group last season or throaters as we know them. It's not my problem empty space between your ears couldn't understand that.

why did you vote "no"?
I thought that Allegris contract was too heavy to risk leaving him on payroll for several years, so Id have preferred to have a more nuanced approach rather than "out now" considering the financial risk involved - imo we shouldve looked for a gentlemans agreement or an opportunity (f.e. like when reportedly he himself offered to resign a couple of months later :D).

That's literally the worst part of his philosophy but OK. It's a nice way of sugarcoating the fact that he has no plan for our forwards and relies purely on them using their own initiative to "cause chaos" as the video puts it. Except until you realise that they don't do that anyway, not even Chiesa.

Allegri:"A coach has to be on the sideline. He has to breathe the game, he has to understand when it's time to make a sub or take off his best player because the team needs a different kind of player. "How can you see that from the stands? I've had to do it a few times and you feel detached. You're disconnected. You don't hear the sounds of the pitch. You don't look the players in the face and you have to do that in order to decide whether it's time to take them off or say something to encourage or spur them on.

"If you're not there, how can you do that? All you can do from the stands is phone the bench and say, 'Take him off,' just like the fans do. The perception is different from the sideline. They're making out football to be an exact science. If that's the case, the coach may as well go to the cinema."

You don't understand football if that's what you think. But that's been clear for a pretty long time now.

Guardiola does the same. Ancelotti does the same. Klopp does the same.

But maxi knows better. He plays FIFA

No, they dont. Coaches like Guardiola rely on a strictly positional style of play in the attack where they are fed through balls by a midfield that knows exactly where they are. Only once they are in the final third around the box are they allowed to be creative, as they are expected to do so. That's not the case here when you have a manager who forces his number 7 and number 9 to drop back, collect from a largely non-existent midfield that cant string 2 passes together, and is expected to drive the ball forward from the halfway line against an entire backline without any cohesive plan going forward. They are not the same.

This is all rich coming from 12 year old trolls like yourself. One minute you're a sarriboy, next minute you're an Allegri throater. 2 coaches who couldn't be anymore different from each other in their philosophies. And you talk to me about cluelessness lol.

Not trying to be rude here. But using highly sophisticated terms like Sarriboy and Allegri throater in every post you make doesn't strike me as very "adult".
I wouldn't be calling others twelve year olds if I were you.

Now go count how often City's number 9 comes deep to collect the ball, and read what you wrote.

How can you say this with straight face based on the video, you also published a week ago, in which Thierry Henry himself says Guardiola is setting tactics for the possession of the ball, positioning of the players and attacking plays that lead to bringing ball to final third.
