[Serie A] Juventus 0-0 Napoli [21st September, 2024 18:00 CEST] (1 Viewer)

That is abysmal refereeing.

That's 2 blatant calls in the past 2 games that the ref hasn't called that could have changed the game.

Ultimately the pass was not intentional to the GK, looked like he initially tried to lay it off for the other defender(or almost to nobody between the GK and CB) and was done via only one touch from stopping a cross, let’s just say it’s questionable even if it would have most likely been awarded if it was the other way around…

This league usually refuses us even the most blatant of obvious calls, this type of debatable incidents are almost never awarded.

A few players looked they had nothing left with 15 minutes still to go. Maybe individual brilliance from Luiz or with Thurman coming on sooner could have did the trick or at least provided a few scoring chances.

I trust Motta will get the job done but hard to imagine McKennie playing as much as he has and Luiz can't see the field when McKennie was just to be just a throw-in for the big deal that provided us the supposed game-changer Luiz. Scratching my head.

I think it’s fair to conclude that Motta doesn’t trust anyone other than Locatelli to play that anchor role in midfield, so I didn’t fancy him making any change there today.

We haven’t had an attacking plan in the final third for many years now, so it’s nothing new. Sadly with this new collection of smaller players we can’t even swing in yolo crosses or look threatening from set pieces anymore.

Describing Mottaball in one sentence:

We did well in not doing anything.

Il nuovo Allegri.

To be fair we've played against 3 very negative teams who were happy to come away with draws.

The lack of striker is an issue but in general Serie A is just trash.

Too many teams play not to lose instead of playing to win.

Too many teams play not to lose instead of playing to win.

Nipples and Roma aside, It's only normal for most of the smaller teams we come up against to play like that. They'd be stupid to come out and play just to get slaughtered. That's not a Serie-A thing, and not a surprise either.

The big teams play like this too though

great review haha I lol-ed at yolo crosses.
Joke aside, we have shown to be extremely disciplined in defensive and attacking shape.

the only issue is that our no.9 is not making runs to open up space for himself or teammates. Seriously, at this point it is better to play another midfielder as a no.9, just to create more movements to drag opponents out of position.

I fully trust the tactics. It’s been ages since we look so solid and compact consistently across more than 3 games. We just need a more dynamic no.9. Someone get Firmino please!

Didn't read the forum as I was watching the game at the party, but it's not the end of the world, because:
It's Conte team, always hard to play against him
We had CL game mid wee and they didn't, we always do bad after CL games.

There are no easy games aside from when playing the newly promoted/relegation struggling teams, even if Empoli might have something to say about it lol

An extremely boring game. I didnt like our defense and Locatelli when in possession. Slow, clumsy, congested and no urgency at all. Frustrating to watch.

Again Solid Juve only if we had an inform striker we would be top of Serie A

Which big chance would an in-form striker have buried yesterday?

Creative department was utter shite yesterday. Created nothing. Best we had was some good dribbling from Nico and Kenan but it never came to anything.

Best chance was the one that fell to Koop. One chance all game is terrible.

Five clean-sheets in Serie A in a row. Great, but nothing unusual. We had 6 in a row with Allegri last year from round 6 to round 11, and there are many other situations with 5 or more straight clean-sheets. It's great, but not unexpected for Juventus.
The three scoreless games in a row in Serie A are something else. This is the 5th time it happens in the last 40 years. We did it in the terrible 2010/11 season (we finished 7th), we also did it in 1998/99 when we didn't score 5 times in a row (we also finished 7th), we did it in the last rounds of 1991-92 when there was nothing to play for because Milan ran away with the title and the ones behind us couldn't endanger our 2nd place anyway, and we did it in rounds 4-6 in 1990-91 (we finished 7th).

Are we gonna finish 7th again?

Best chance was the one that fell to Koop. One chance all game is terrible.

There was that one pass from Koop which "bounced off" Dusan. I've not seen it again but I remember seeing Dusan making the right run but Koop didn't release the ball, so Dusan made a second run which Koop misjudged.

Koop also squared a ball brilliantly but nobody was there he obviously didn't feel a need to look up because he knew our CF would have been there. Dusan would have been and it would have been a goal.

That also was a half chance at best for Koop.

Conte shut us down really well, and Motta's big brain moment was to take off Vlahovic for Weah and change nothing else. Somehow still Vlahovic's fault around here.

If Vlahovic continues terrible form even Motta will be worried.
