im pretty sure Allegri knows their condition better than anyone else. I don’t think he’s benching them for no reason.
As I said, nothing to do with being tired

---

Allegri was asked about his surprising tactical choices, mirroring Inzaghi’s 3-5-2 and leaving Federico Chiesa and Matthijs de Ligt on the bench, in favour of Dejan Kulusevski and Giorgio Chiellini.

“I knew it could be quite a physical game to start with, so I needed someone like Kulusevski to put more pressure on Brozovic. As the tempo dropped, I put on Dybala and Chiesa, the confidence was growing too. It’s a good point, but now we absolutely must win on Wednesday against Sassuolo.”

Allegri is known for changing the games with subs. He does that also as a way to rest the important players.

It's both a tactic and a way of resting his players. For example Cuadrado should face the same treatment now, he looks off. Just like Chiesa did for the past couple of games.

Happy with the scoreline. That's all that matters at this stage as we are climbing up the table.

Allegri is very much still figuring out this team, didn't like seeing our best weapon on bench against a top 3 team but I trust allegri.

Consistent results are happening which is great, the question now is when do we see this team step it up a notch and really start playing consistently good football?

Ya, I get that, i've been watching, but it doesn't make it any less annoying. How has McKennie looked lately? Bernardeschi? Both played Wednesday. It was a wrong move but that luckily didn't hurt them in the end. Barring injury, you play your best vs the best. Sassuolo and Verona coming up, plenty of time to rest them those games.

Considering how shit we were a draw is ok but why are we playing so static?? let's say they guarded locateli well and that we don't have creative players what about our defence?

It's a puzzling approach from a coach at Maxs level that on defence the lateral balls they floated into our 18 just like the one before the goal was rediculous..why not press and defend the parameter better so they don't have time on the ball? This is the first thing you learn as a kid don't allow time in the ball..
Reminded me a bit of Max's last season. To me Max got it wrong.

We have too many passengers in this team, agreed. Should this issue force the 'stars' to be overplayed then?

As bad as we've been playing, there must be rotation.

Rest in Sass and Verona games is also tricky. Those two are no pushovers and six points are more worth than 3 or 1 vs inter.

We should be annoyed with quality of this squad first and foremost.

The usual 1-0 win gameplan was going perfect until Deschi waved off the sub and they scored against 10 men.

Draw was a fair result, but going into 2nd half on 0-0 rather than trailing I feel we would’ve nicked a goal and won it.

We have to objective and fair and say that we disnt allow inter anything. We closed them well, we were very solid at the back, and if we werent so limited quality-wise we would have had a very comfortable win. With the players we have at our disposal, Alegri is doing miracles. The goal we conceded was a freak luck in inters side. First a deflection from Chalha's shot, the ball hit the bar and it just fell right in front of the only inter player in our penalty box and it was Dzeko of all people.

The board just has to see and recognise that many of our players simply dont deserve to play for Juventus and they have to be sold or loaned and replaced with new one. The main problem is that there are so many players that need to be replaced that we simply dont have the finances to do that. Bentancur, Kulusevski, Morata, Bernardeschi and Alex Sandro being our main weak points and their positions should be the main focus for our management.

A draw in the toughest game of the season isn't a bad result.
We didn't lose ground to any of the top 7 bar Milan this round. We are way behind Milan and Napoli but these two teams have played mostly lower table teams till now. We have played Inter, Milan, Napoli and Roma. If we can get a good winning steeak of 4-5 games, we will be right in the fight for the title.

Gameplan was understood so I can’t knock Allegri on this.
Inter were sharper and more composed in their play during the first half, we always look frenetic and rushed when we have the ball due to the long-standing issue of a lack of players who are comfortable on the ball.

Their high press in the first half meant they then went over cautious in the second and simply tried to play out time and give us nothing on the counter. We got more confident as the game wore on largely because they sat back and we brought on Dybala who showed the team how to be crisp and precise in movement and passing.
Clear penalty, dull game where no one really pushed to win it. Good result in the circumstances.

Overall both teams scored one goal more than they should have.
Both teams did nothing attacking wise.
Inter played better until Dybala and Chiesa subbed in and then we got a little dimension of "what to do with the ball".
When both got introduced to the game we became the better team although we were still not good enough.

K.J has a nice touch as he is being pressured but the ball stays with him which is something young players like him usually dont have...

MOTM? Tough to say
