[Serie A] JUVENTUS 1-1 Chievo (March 3rd 2012) (2 Viewers)

Especially on the running and humility part.
Bit late, but anyway:
Not sure I'd be overly critical of any individual player for this result.
It was a really awful decision from Conte to play 4-4-2.
Pirlo and Marchisio had no chance to control the game because they were often playing against four Chievo players in that area. Being outnumbered in that area also presented Chievo with heaps of counter-attacking chances.
Not having control meant Juve couldn't control the tempo and whenever Juve aren't able to set a high tempo in a game to move the opposition around, it exposes the lack of creative, technically gifted players in the squad.

so juventus fans should only cheer for their team when they're winning? San lorenzo as i explained is a top team in Argentina, with huge following, they are facing relegation and lost at home to a rival, now the vid shows the whole stadium(not just the terraces) cheering on their team at the last minute of that game. We have a team which is overacheiving hasnt lost all year, and they jeer.
Meh.
The players were facing an uphill battle from the start due to the formation.
Also, Conte had spoken about having limited time to prepare for the game due to the international break.
Why, then, did he choose to play a formation that Juve haven't played in months rather than going with either of the two more regularly used systems?

It happens with spoiled fans, I see it in England all the time. Maybe it's our new 'theatre' English-style stadium. But was this really a dig at Juventus fans or a plug for San Lorenzo? I've seen (and support one) teams who are in dire situations, and it can often create a siege mentality amongst the fans and a great atmosphere. It can go both ways of course, full of sarcasm or turn nasty.
I don't suppose our fans are much better or worse in terms of many fans of big European teams. Some of the big stadiums in England and Spain are like libraries until there is a chance or foul. I've seen better support in lower league games and even the MLS (Portland Timbers specifically) than I would in the majority of big stadiums.

why would i plug a team i cant stand
in fact only team in argentina that ahs an edge on wins vs Boca. But i give their fans major respect for cheering on their team in prolly their worst moment.As for the reasons behind it, i think italy is slightly worse than the rest i remember lazio fans booing their team as they dimsantled their opposition 5-0, they booed every single goal. And with teh terraces no longer existing in big euro stadiums and teh price of tickets, it's more like going to the movies than it is a football game.

Didn't see the game but it sounds like Bradley had a great match. If it was anything like his performance against Italy, he has really cemented my spot as favorite US player. He had all the hard work, determination, and now he's got the brains to go with it.
Sucks for the draw though, Conte needs to stop fucking around.
