IMO, I thought he was too.

In what way?

---------- Post Merged at 23:00 ----------

was important to be able to win without Pirlo, great performance.

disappointed with Isla, but obviously he may not be 100% ready yet.

He looked like the chubby one.

thought bonucci and lucio had great movment going forward, their passing might not be the best but the whole squad must work on movment when they take the ball forward.
bonucci and lucio will be important when pirlo gets marked out of games

Great play by our team. We controlled the game totally. Pogba impressed me, Quag just found his form and even Lucio played today like a word class defender. Vucinić looked tired for the whole match, but he really wanted to score. He should be taken off earlier knowing he'll be needed next Tuesday.

Great victory, I'm glad so many subs showed their worth for this team. We've got plenty of possibilities to build our starting squad. This Juve is so great

I just think the rhetoric is wrong
They all played a good game, but the other two were better

 

[radekas]

This was probably our best game when it comes to overpowering our opponent.

 

[Gerd]

Bonucci deserves to be in the Man of the match list much more than lucio and chiellini , he was second best on the pitch after quaglia for obvious reasons

 

[Gian]

This was probably our best game when it comes to overpowering our opponent.

That's because this was the worst opponent we have faced so far

 

[Trequartista]

Indeed, Chievo is a piss poor side.

 

[Roman]

Perfect!

Great display,great defence this time.
Pogba is great,reminds me alot of Vieira,Asa is HUGE!,and sooo glad to see Quag reach his form again!
On top of the victory we rested Pirlo,Barza,Gio,Licht...even Vidal played less than a half.amazing.very important!

Forza Juve!!!

Ratings

Buffon n/a - Unpaying specator
Lucio 6,5 - got me a little bit frustrated in the first minutes because he gave unneeded 3-4 long balls , but grew with the passing of time , very solid performance
Bonucci 7 - Fantastic performance in the first half , very good in the second
Chiellini 6,5 - very solid match in defense
Pogba 6,5 - he get's a 0,5 plus because it's his first match , very solid in defense not brilliant in playmaking , especially in the first half where the duties of building play fell on bonucci , got more responsabilities in the second half
Marchisio 6,5 - As i have said , the most consistent performer we have in the team
Giaccherini 6 - Runs and never stops
Quagliarella 8 - MOM
Vucinic 6,5 - Good performance , frustrating at some balls , but was a protagonist in some dangerous attacks and gave some nice balls in the box . Too bad he didn't score
Lischt n/a
Vidal 6 - enter and imediatly imposes himself
Bendtner n/a

10 men Udinese, Genoa and Parma are all on a similar level, and we played much worse.

 

[Quetzalcoatl]

Our team is so fucking good and it feels great.

udinese is stronger than chievo , genoa is definetly better , parma is on the same level , but that was only the first match

 

[JuveJay]

Indeed, Chievo is a piss poor side.

And in poor form, and not even trying to win the game.

I remain hopeful that those draws we had last season will turn into more wins, with the extra quality and fear factor we have now.

Purple rats thread pls.

So you're saying we're gonna win every game?

10men Udinese is not stronger than chievo.
Genoa was 17th last year, Chievo was 10th. They didn't improve.
Parma is the same level.

So yeah, our best game against that level of opponents.

True dat. The defense was great, and I include our midfield in that.

Our team is so fucking good and it feels great.

Well, this match reminded me a little of the Portugal-Azerbaijan match I saw earlier this month. We need to work on finishing still.

 

[JuveJay]

So you're saying we're gonna win every game?

That would be nice But seriously, we have to lose at some time. We don't even know how this team will react to that.

There is always a danger of over-rotating, with CL and so many players. I don't see that so far, but last year a great strength of the team was virtually playing the same players every week, as we had no injuries. So whilst we became tired and ran out of stamina in some of those games we were very cohesive.
