That's called reality, hardly a nightmare
@ Ahmed: I am not a pessimist; I have just had the fortune (or misfortune), whichever way you want to look at it judging by our performances this season, of watching almost all of Juve's games this season. I am just being conservative and realistic as regards expectations.
Honestly, every game we go into is a lottery, because we lack identity, have no clear game plan, and sorely lack pace. This was cruelly exposed by both Bayern and Bordeaux in Europe. The fact that we manage to scrape by in Serie A owes much to the flawas and faults of our opponents than to our own merits. Serie A has declined drastically over the past few years that finishing in the top 3-4 positions should hardly pose a challenge for Juve anymore.
I believe that the only players performing consistently, the ones showing grit and determination, and the only ones worthy of donning a Juve shirt at present are Buffon, Chiellini, and Marchisio. All the other players have been dismal and disappointing, showing no heart and conviction whatsoever in their performances and displays.
I say we revert to the 4-2-3-1 for the game against Bari. Giovinco and Camo have to play and support Diego. We have to give a chance for this formation to work, because it is the only one which allows us to fully utilize the pacey players at our disposal.
