well im hoping we have found our new LB for now, grygera played very well and scored a great goal. we played well and controlled the match although now its gonna be tough with injuries and suspensions for the napoli match.

That's fucking horrible news!

------------------Buffon------------------------

--Brazzo--Grygera---Cheillini----Molinaro--

-----------Sissoko---------?Zanetti?---------

------------------Nedved---------------------

----Iaquinta------Trez-------Alex------------

Doesnt look like our best line-up to me. Let's hope Zanetti isnt injured, he makes a huge difference in midfield
Brazzo---Stendardo---Chiellini---Grygera

Let's bench Molinaro again and see what happen's. :spliff:

We have to build on Grygera's LB performance, plus we all know he suck's big time in the center.

Good game imo, we controlled most parts of it even though we didn't have our best players on the field.Some individual mistakes here and there especially in the final third that halted the third goal but i am not complaining.

Just about zanetti, i thought his performance was an improvement on the last few matches. No where near his best but he was going through a mini slump where his passing, tackling and covering was really off. But last night i was better play in all areas,i just hope the injury is not serious.

grygera, well he didn't have decent crosses but his intelligent play allowed him to take advantage. He played well in defense as covered very well and didn't allow sculli to breathe and vanden borre got the same treatment.

And yeah Trezi is back in town folks!

Well to the doubters 3 more points and a VERY good display could have easily been 4 or 5 to nil. I predicted 2-0 and also was trying to TELL YOU ALL GRYGERA IS A GOOD VERY GOOD PLAYER he’s just been out of position in the middle. I have seen him play RB many times but gee we should never see MOLLINARO again!!!!

To the game.

Genoa were a little better in the first 10 mins then we took control. Very slow start by Sissoko and Brazzo but both worked into the game very well.

Let me say its a joy to watch DP he’s trickery with the ball and hold up play was BRILLANT like usual. He clearly beat Crisctio who I must say was NOT GOOD at all when Iaquinta came on he beat him too.

Criscito tries to act tough like Montero but he is not he must just play the game and thats all. I don’t know how good he will become he doesn’t have height or weight and is not overly quick and doesn’t seem to be a brilliant reader (like Cannavaro) of the ball, there a questions here!

To the people who said BRAZZO was poor are you really serious!!!!!
He started poor then he worked his way into the game and left no space out there and helped our defense alot I thought he played well NOT GREAT but he was very solid.

To my ratings:

Buffon 8 Didnt have much to do besides another wonder save this game aint human - TRUE LEGEND the best

Zebina 6.5 Very good game but you cost our team with your temper and another yellow THINK of the team

Legra 7 looks a different player with Chellini and NO Mollinaro around

Chellini 9 This is funny Man City want to buy him and Juve need defenders. He could be the best in the world NO JOKE. I remember when we first bought half of him they said he was like a young maldini and a future Aruuzi captain. He will be the Bianconeri capatain too. Brilliant game bathed Borrillio who is a very good player!

Grygera 9.5 MOM to the man i defended early in the week THANK-YOU! You proved why you were regarded one of the best in Holland a great goal and a brilliant assist not a bad day at the office. Did I mention his covering at the back was first class along with his reading and breaking down of the play. Well Done!

Brazzo 6.5 Solid was better than what Palla could have brought cos he defended which we needed. Hopefully plays RB next game with Zebina out. No Mollianro!!!

Zanetti 7 Professional game nothing special but back to the old Zanetti. We will miss him.

Sissoko 7 Started quietly got into the game very well. has to watch some meaningless fouls he gives away. improving all the time. Can he be better than Maschirano why not really he’s nothing special cant shoot never scores, good passer, good tackler sounds like a white Sissoko!

Camo 8.5 Love you to death the warrior!! Just watch those fouls when your mad. Very good game and in the top 3 players for importance!

DP 7 Good game in tough conditions. Holds the ball up well and moved well plays with heart, worked back to if he had too!

Trez 7 Moved well and scored some nice runs, I still think for pure strikers hes the best in Serie A.

Nocinero 5.5 Was OK just has to trest the ball with morerespect looses it to easily.

Tiago 6.5 Very good 15 mins hopefully starts next game liked what I saw. Is this the real Tiago. No mistakes, nice passing, postioned very well. Good signs. I think he starts next week!

Iaquinta 6 Respect. Gets little time never whinges and does well. Dominated Criscito nealry scored 2, he will replace DP when the time comes.

Raneri 8 Well coached. I ust admit I am a Lippi man but who isint. You proved your doubters wrong good subs and the right times and playing BRAZZO and Grygera on the right was genious!

3 Points YESSSS!!! C'mon boys lets make CL and hope Reggina get relegated still not over that.

Have a good week!!!

important win , grygera was the man of the match , he scored a wonderful goal and created the second for trez , why he is not playing at this position in all matches.

After 3 games! Finally.Good to see Treze do it again and Grygera put in a positive performance. Not to burst any bubbles but I just doubt he can repeat that performance on the left but I so hope I'm wrong. But it seems like he'll only play LB in the event of Molinaro being out and not as a tactical move so we might never know.

And whats with the suspensions. All the dudes who came in needing one card for suspension managed to get it. Its like they were trying or something

well, i think CR should get 6 at max for:
1. letting DP till the 77min while he was INVISIBLE,
2. supping Momo with Nocerino !!!!
3. not pushing the team to finish the game in the last 30min where Genoa clearly was despreate.

1 - Del piero was holding the ball well and was opening up space for his team . He is much needed in that type of situation because of his experience .

2 - Momo had a yellow and could have easilly been sent off , that was the last thing we needed .

3 - They were 2 goals up and could have made it 3 or 4 with their counter attacks . Genoa didn't get a real chance all game , their only chance came from a chiellini deflection . Juve were still creating more than Genoa even though they were defending .
CR coached a decent game for the first time this season . He played his cards right and read the game well . Blindly bashing him after every game has become a trend and it should really stop .

DP was far from invisible he worked very hard espically over the half way line to pick up balls it was a selfless game.

Momo was subbed as he had a yellow and nearly picked up a second in fact was a little lucky so smart coaching from Raneri.

Raneri continually pushed the team and poor finsihing in the final third prevented the score from being 4 or 5 to nil.

Raneri had an excellent game and the rating were high but if you watch the game Genoa who scored 5 past Undinese and who have the leading scorer didnt even create a real chance on goal.

We played very well!

it is a very cheap shot blasting Ranieri after a game like this, even if we win he gets comments on his subs even tough they all can be easily explained
I think a lot of the posters here have a mob-mentality, if one of them starts bashing the coach, the board or a player then they all jump the wagon.
Is it so hard to formulate an opinion on your own?
we only have limited ways to find out what is really going on at the Juve-camp and we can always question the accuracy but when we play well and win you have to give credit to the team just like you critisise them when they suck.

the credit goes to whoever deserved it couldn't agree more,
first I did not Bash CR(no names calling) just trying to clear my point about the bad calls i think he made.

and giving CR 8, for just unexpected performance by Grygera and Sali(both performed much better than any body expected) is OK, but how many time DP really hold the ball and it worked!!
plus most of his passes were lost, that wasn't his day and just keeping him on pitch while you have other attakers who are just waiting for a chance to play is lame. more over what Iquinta did in the 10 min was more than what DP did in his entire game.

and if you take Momo just not to pickup another card, I think the same should be implemented on Camo, who have done two nasty tackels in 2nd half and it could be a strait RED(remind me of the insane moments he just gets sometimes),

Nice post! that's what i'm trying to say all the time. It's pretty easy mocking CR and making lists and lists of what he does wrong. But none of us can really rate his work, because he is with the team every day, and he takes choices every week in his formation, in which he HAS to make up his mind. He doesn't just 'throw a dice' to get the formation u know... CR just prooved to me what i was trying to tell everybody here. We lost against a very strong fiorentina (which was OVERMOTIVATED to win against us). That's sad, but not the end of the world. we showed reaction and i think we can do good even in the next games. The napoli game will be a thriller. I hope fiorentina/milan draw their next games so that we can play up open-minded and without pressure @ inter!
