It was also incredibly difficult and he nailed it.
Soooo sad that didnt went in.
Faggi and gaynaldo can go choke a dick. This is the stuff i watch football for
yep, That's Pogba's imagination for you. Incredibly hard to receive a half field pass like that, on top of it, in later stages of the game when you got little energy left. Put majority of forwards in that situation, and best case scenario they would control it with their stomach, shield and look for a lay off.
Strong stuff from Juve.
Chievo were tame and caught with a really nothingy gameplan, but Juve really tore into them.
There were aspects of that game that were probably more reminiscent of Conte's Juve at its best, rather than what we've tended to see more recently from Juve.
That game was really based on getting well-timed runs from deep and that is a really hard thing for anyone to defend against.
Liked Pogba's position in the first half. It got him playing properly in midfield and gave him the chance to really have a lot of influence on the game. Too often he plays a bit too high and/or a bit too wide and - while he may still make a decisive contribution - it means he isn't really in midfield and able to control things.
And as much as I like Mandzukic, a front two of Morata and Dybala is very scary for teams like Chievo who don't have mobile defenders. An experienced Serie A defender like Dainelli would feel he has a much better chance of containing Mandzukic than he has with Morata.
It'll be interesting to see, given the pace and quality of Juve's play in the first half, how long it may be before another team doesn't just defend very deep and try to frustrate them. Lesser teams just don't have the mobility to take Juve on in any amount of space when Juve are playing this well.
Missed your analysis Juve_Red.
About the bolded part, I know you could argue about some minor details and different adjustments, but overall, in this streak of wins this season, it is the same system with a better SS and set of fullbacks, but unfortunately I could see the same limitation coming up against teams with too much fire power especially if the run of game goes against you.
Hopefully, the shit going on in muncheat and their players becoming complacent is true and not just media garbage. In any case, wouldn't hold it against Allegri if he brings up the lack of TQ in this particular case if we fail to advance.
