IMO we deserved to win this game and were very unlucky with Khedira`s miss
We obviously need a world class forward and a world class midfielder but other than that we are quite set
Dybala being great - I still dont know... He needs to prove it but Zaza did a very good job although he should have passed the ball or try a first time shot in the first half of the game...
Morata created an amazing opportunity for Khedira who missed a must score situation!
Cuadrado is a great dribbler but is also very predictable as he always go through the flank... If he trains hard on cutting to the middle he could be unstoppable! Also he seems brainless to me as he sometimes need to pass the ball earlier or try different things and he simply doesnt even think about it...

Hope we are going to spend on a great player in January as when one of the mid 3 will be injured or suspended we will have trouble again!
Also premature to talk about it but I think Berardi will be brilliant for us in a 4-3-3 formation!

Look at our stats v Inter, we've conceeded 2 more and scored on less, yet they're 8 points ahead. With a good run we can reach those spots, provided we keep injury free and some players get back to being themselves it can happen
Absolutely

Please don't be in denial about this. We are too far behind to win the Scudetto with Napoli, Roma and Inter all being realistic contenders not just with their form, but with their established teams and formations while we are only just finding our rhythm. We cannot be expecting to overturn a nine point deficit and increase that lead with 30 matches to go. The only reason I say that is because there is more than one team running in for the title so that combined with the luck of being injury free and staying fit, is really unlikely to happen. Personally for me, a best case scenario for Juve this term is 3rd place and I think that too is unlikely. We will probably finish between 4th and 6th.




That's our goal for the season? Lucky Allegri.



Which is the sad part.
This.And the saddest thing in this year ,other than not playing with a full team is that we don't have a player who is a difference maker.We played shitty over this 4 years multiple times but somehow someone will score and we will win 3 points.Now,we don't have that type of a player.

Exactly. I cant see why anyone is more freaked out now. We are getting better.
It's obvious.Next year we will be title contenders.

Come on guys, we've had multiple winless matches vs Inter in the last four years.

I don't see how this particular 0-0 at San Siro is supposed to turn yesterday's 'we are coming back baby' mood into 'we'll be lucky to finish in Top3' mood.

It is not a bad result, we are improving and we will eventually get there. Few weeks ago we would have lost this match.

You should win an award for the most depressing post ever!
We are not as good as we were last year BUT we are still the most quality side in serie a!
30 games are a lot! Are we going to win the scudetto? I dont know But I do see as you said there are a few clubs competing for it!
Fiorentina will not be in the title race nor will Milan
Inter as good as their position is right now will not win it also IMO
The teams that will compete for it are Napoli who look very impressive of late (question remains if they can maintain this form...) and Roma who are definitely a title contender
If we could close some of the gap until January and make a good use of the winter transfer window I see us as champions otherwise it will be very difficult!
The scudetto will be decided between Juve Roma Napoli and Inter with the results be Roma will win it we will finish 2nd Napoli 3rd and Inter 4th

Lazio beat Juve to the title in 2000 when they were nine points behind in March. Juve can definitely claw back nine points in October.

Only one serious contender is Roma which pisses me of most.

but ancelotti's juve choked very hard to lose the title.

now we have 2 teams ahead of us in terms of quality of their play and points (roma and napoli; i don't consider :inter: superior), and also fiorentina have a solid team. we'll not only need juventus to start winning matches regularly, but also napoli and roma to start choking pretty early.

It's going to be a classic title race, I can feel it. We've given them a head start but we just have that bit more quality and not to forget bags of experience, just a question of if we still have the desire.

If we are going to challenge this year then we have to make one of those 10 match winning streaks and these wins must include at least some of the clubs competing with us for top 3. We have so far lost to Roma and Napoli and Drew with Inter. If we can make a come back then we need to cut the points gap using our matches against them. Every one of them that faces us should lose 3 points while we gain 3 on them. Sadly whats happened is the opposite.. every time we face them the gap just increases.

It doesn't look good for us. 9 points is maybe not much if you think we will go back to being as good as we used to be last season but so far the signs show that this wont be the case. We increase the gap whenever we face a competitor and we are not consistent against the small teams either.

Marchisio is back.. now its time for Dybala to fill in Tevez's shoes.

We play $#@!ing INter.Napoli and Roma home at the second half of the season.That's why it hurt'e me so much that wasted points against Udinese,Fro.....ne,Chievo.... .They will cost us much.
we've played all of our hardest games now, so at least they're out the way.

I'm not so much mad about the result, because a draw against Inter away isn't too bad. I'm more concerned about our position, I still think we'll have a late league push, but we'll see. Serie A is a lot stronger this yes, considering this is a transition phase, I'd settle for a CL spot and going far in the CL.

We will have to wait for that for a while at least ,maybe he will never fill that hole in our team.

We are Juve.We must target the Scudetto,always.I don't buy that transition thing.Especially when loser teams like Roma.Inter and Napoli are contenders.We have much weaker team when we win our first consecutive scudetto.

Dissapointed in the result . Right now the only good thing is that the only strong team remaining that we need to face is fiorentina . If we pull our pants and have a little bit of luck too we can put a nice string of wins .

5 wins in a row and we are in the top3.


Lets stop beeing peasants, please.
stop calling others peasants, and respect the difference of opinion, i think it's pretty clear what position you have regardless of how things turn out

also @Zacheryah this has nothing to do with derby or not, what sucks is that we did not plaay to win this game against a pretty poor inter which despite our current form only managed to trouble us with long shots. we played the way a provincial team would play us, showed too much respect and not enough cojones.

Drawing Inter is not a drama. And not worth the drama beeing made.


Thing is, we need to win 5 out of the next 6 games. And since we should get a result wednesday, we should start to really focus on the league for a bit
