Great season, shame about the Champions League as I'm convinced we could've gone far again.
The first Scudetto in this row is still my all time favorite as a fan, followed closely by the one after that. I'd put this one in 3rd spot though.
Of special importance is the discovery (or transfer) of Dybala. Mercurial player, we haven't had one like him in a while (bar Tevez).

This season has been the most testing one of the 5 Scudetti. Key players left, some younger players arrived, doubts crept in, Napoli looked so strong.
So to come back by winning 24 out of 25 games shows what strong club this is. The leadership provided by Agnelli, Marotta and Allegri was key. They never lost faith and believed the season was recoverable. They kept calm when others would have panicked. You don't win 5 Scudetti in a row by panicking when something goes wrong.
Praise as well for the senior players. I said after the Sassuolo game that Buffon and Evra's words were strong, but fair. That wasn't Juventus. There was no discipline. Since then I think the whole squad realised the situation and got back the focus required.
