Asuming that we aimed for 3 prices: the CL, Serie A, and Coppa Italia, and that we failed on 2 of the 3... i would give the season a 3.3 from 10 just for this.
-The european campaign was plain bad. Incomes aside, we did not pounced on our chances and went out of both european competitions with lacklustre performances, waaay below our standards.
-The coppa Italia is a throphy we never are interested in...but again..with the players we have at our disposal, is not insane to ask at the very least a final. The level in Italy, apart from juve and 2 more teams.. is atrocious. We should have done better.
-Then comes serie A. We totally cruised the league, beating both times roma and setting an unthinkable record of points...heck, we could even make it more ridiculous next week and end the season unbeaten in our home and with all victories. Even for current serie A standards.... this is nothing short of admirable. If we get 102 points...it will be simply unreal. No one will touch that record ever. And we will get our memorable 3rd scudetto. Happiness!.
normally, i would rate the season with a 7 or 6 after this astronomic achievement..... But not this time, and ill explain why i give a 5
Even when we cruised the league... i have not seen our team advance or evolve enought. Our performances get more and more predictable and lethargic after everygame. Even with better players, we seem to be lost with our gameplan, and most of the time..end up grinding results against lower opposition that we should simply beat with more comfort given our players.
Theres is this worrysome feeling that we simply are not playing like we are supposed to, theres always missing. We go to the games with shameful approaches, believing that we are going to win just because we are juventus, and trying to outmuscle everyone without a gameplan.
After 2 seasons of winning serie A, and a memorable run in the CL, i hoped for much much more from us.
Im not feeling we are doing a stepforward, we have stalled. And im worried. I cannot lie to myself and try to hide my feelings.
We need to step up on all fronts...we need better players, more quality, but we also need a change in our gameplan, in our tactics, in our approach. Soemthing must change.
