I liked what James Horncastle had to say post-match. That you'd think after 4 years of winning the Scudetto, losing the big players over the summer and having a woeful start to the season Juve would just say, OK we will try again next season, but no the team had such spirit and character to come back... and that people like Buffon, Chiellini and Marchisio in the team, whose hunger is still there as they went down to B and stayed in those difficult years, and knowing the value of wanting to win all there is to win

It's a bit of this and a bit of Serie A teams simply not being consistent enough. They had every chance in the world to be way ahead of us but Roma and Fiorentina are too provincial, the Milan teams are just meh and Napoli is our bitch.

Napoli this season has easily been the best other Serie A team in years though tbh, along with Roma 2013/14.
Maybe but when you put it into perspective, in the first 8 weeks we only made 8 or 9 points... If they were really that good they could have taken advantage of that and be unreachable by now. We just passed them, bro.

Sure we had a bit of luck on our side and winning 15 games in a row is such a cool achievement but by allowing us to be where we are our competition has really failed.

Surely Chelsea fans deserve refunds.

Sure sounds bad when you put it this way, but on the other hand Napoli has 56 points now, just two points less than what we had at this point last season.

Is it just me or did Napoli disrespect Zaza on that goal? If that was Morata they would've collapsed on him immediately but instead they opted to mark Sandro of all people and his limp deck run in the box leaving Zaza to blast away
