Can't think of many players who played well, it was a rubbish and arrogant performance with this a low priority for us. The players knew that, the coach showed that and it panned out that way. Cuadrado was almost clown-like. Lucky Sami had no end product. Mandzukic doesn't know what a goal is anymore. Sturaro...yeah. God loves a trier but this is not AFC Wimbledon, that guy isn't showing anything other than heart.

This one always had the potential for a perfect storm because we were going to either field subs or start players with their minds elsewhere, and Torino always play it like a cup final every time, so the chances of us scraping through with half a performance are reduced. Having said that we still should have taken the lead, and invariably we win from there. Torino had a great fk and that was it, let's be real.

Our performance seemed to get gradually worse the longer it went on, the last 25 mins was some of the most clueless football you'll see us play, yet we were a bounce away from scoring. I suppose it's almost funny in a way that we should have won that game even having said all of those things. What's not funny is how we continually manage to drag Serie A out when we are trying to play three competitions. It could get very unfunny if Roma were to beat Milan and us, watching this bunch trying to put in a shadow performance in the last couple of games.

Ideal scenario would be obviously a Milan result of sorts tomorrow, but if not then a fairly routine game for us Tuesday and then give ourselves a performance in Rome next weekend and take at least a point. Just get it done with, fucking unnecessary drama.
Agree every word.:tup:
Also I am sure that we won't lose at Rome next weekend.

Ok mate. A fk and a random long shot easily saved.
Again ,you have a point.Exactly.:tup:

We always ruin it for them in injury time lol.

Performance and result wise not surprising or a big deal. It was unmotivated backups vs a motivated decent side (defense aside).

Only thing was we missed too many chances and needed an injury time goal. A defeat wouldn't have been a good result because it wouldn't have allowed us to rest players vs Roma ahead of CI final. Now, we can rest some players.

Re serie a, it was already over.

This was asabob's first bad game after a while. Overall, he has been a good backup lb. You guys talking about ending his contract already after one bad game? :D

This game could have easily ended 4-1 if it wassnt for our mediocre finishing to day. Pipita had to come in to save the day-

We need an urgent back up for cuadrado not named alves... because alves plays there at the cost of us using Barzagli as a RB. Which is not bad but we risk barzagli facing speedsters like Mbappe, and cuadrado is our supposed attacker, not alves. And i dont like Pjaca on the right wing..he seems to struggle there since he is right footed and like to cut in.

Licht and Sturaorao are must sells. Please sell both of them and buy quality to replace. Or bring eager young players idc

Rincon showed eagerness. Asamoah had his bad moments but overall did aceptable taking in consideration the gulf in quality between him and sandro. Benatia was alright too.

Licht, Sturaro and Lemina shpuld make space for more useful players...with all respect to them.

Now lets crush Monaco

Did you watch the game? Serious question. We had plenty of big chances to win the game.
Yep. One of those games where we appear to be in second gear but still create plenty of chances, which we of course wasted. Not overly concerned. Obviously we are once again saving ourselves for a big CL encounter.

That being said, I think Licht, Sturaro (no surprise) and Cuadrado all had terrible games. Really dragged the quality of play down considerably with their ineptness.

Why is all the Italian media retarded? The second yellow was a textbook yellow for dangerous play. Am I getting crazy or smthing? :shifty:

after 6 years of consecutive victories without worries they are crazy both fans and media.
They can't stand it anymore so anything can be useful to spit on juventus.
For any reason or even without reason

that and we changed 8 players compared to Monaco.
Toro knew it was their chance to gain something and they put everything they had.
Still Ljajic goal aside they were no threat to us.
We wasted 4 sitters. First Benatia hit the pole then Bonucci failed to deliver 2meters away from the goal line. Again Khedira miss another huge sitter 5 meters away from the line.
Mandzukic as well...
We could have scored thrice easly. But we were unlucky. At least Gonzalo saved our ass
