[Seria A] Ascoli- Juventus (14 Viewers)
- Thread starter Muha
- Start date
Juve needs to put there act together in this game.
As Milan and Inter plays quite well and the gap between us and them aren’t that impressive.
Defensively we have conceded goals in the last games so they need to work better in positioning. Buffon needs help to make him secure again, feeling the support from the defense. Balzaretti has been a shining star these games and hopefully he’ll continue his path. Canna with two goals last game must be filled with confidence. Zambrotta has been moved around so much by Capello that he has had a difficult time finding form, lets hope he can get some peace.
Midfield has not worked offensively lately. When Juve plays well and everything goes our way with all players in form were unstoppable. But we lack tempo of the ball, movement and creativity. Emo and Vieira are prob the best inner blocking midfield in the world, but we have no; Totti, Pirlo, Lampard, Gerrard, Veron, Ronadinho and so on... We need to use our flanks more. When balza or zambo moves up the wings must support them and one inner midfielder has to be playable in center with strikers moving toward the pen area. Instead of Mutu or Cammo operating on their own.
Would like to see us play with a diamond:
-----------Emo--------------
Cammo-------------Viera
-----------Mutu-------------
Up front it is rotation that’s the key with many games.
Rotate DP, Ibra and Trez.
Trez is currently off form and needs to stay near the goal instead of "searching ball" as he is now. DP is in great form. With some more support from the team he could be in a great streak. Ibra needs to start scoring. Stop wasting long balls on him every second and move up more people in attack to make the marking easier.

Ascoli - Juventus
Stadio Del Duca
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Although an away win is strong favourite, Ascoli will hope to put pressure on a Juventus side that struggled to dispatch Empoli last weekend in this Stadio Del Duca clash.
Marco Giampaolo's side ran out well-deserved winners against Lecce in Week 21 and in the process put welcome distance between themselves and the relegation zone. While they are strong outsiders, the home Bianconeri may just feel that they can go one better than they did in Week 3 when they were only just beaten 2-1.
Juventus remain eight points clear at the top of Serie A and despite dropping points against Chievo in Week 20, they seem unstoppable. Fabio Cannavaro was the unlikely hero against Empoli after Fabio Capello's men got themselves into unexpected trouble, he will surely not need to remind his players to avoid complacency here. Mauro Camoranesi will be keen to take the headlines with his performance on the pitch after a week of Press speculation surrounding his future.
Giampaolo continues to suffer from a lack of available players but has no new injury problems. Domenico Cristiano, Ivano Della Morte, Mirko Cudini, Francesco Carbone and Mattia Biso are all injured. Cristiano Del Grosso is suspended after his dismissal against Lecce. Fabio Quagliarella is a doubt.
Zlatan Ibrahimovic returns from suspension but Robert Kovac is still injured as is Giorgio Chiellini. Pavel Nedved has a knock but is likely to start.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ascoli (probable): Coppola; Comotto, Domizzi, Paci, Tosto; Foggia, Guana, Parola, Fini; Ferrante, Bjelanovic
Juventus (probable): Buffon; Zambrotta, Thuram, Cannavaro, Balzaretti; Camoranesi, Emerson, Vieira, Nedved; Trezeguet, Ibrahimovic
