Perin - Cancelo - Rugani - Careces - Spinazzola basically saw each other on the pitch for the first time. It would be a mistake to make big conclusions about them after this game. Too many moving parts were involved, and Parma were unbelievably clinical.
But they should have raised to the ocassion, to show that juve can depend on them.Insted we saw too many brainfarts from them. It also doesn't look good when caceres looks better at defending then rugani.

Caceres is a good defender. Always has been when healthy.

Rugani looked terrible regardless of Caceres though. His lack of decisiveness and aggression was appalling today.

Yes, they should've - if each of them were a single change in the regular squad. But there's no way for them to be ready to function as a unit having no prior experience in such a mode.

Why are we rotating keepers? Szczęsny isnt 40. Its uncalled to rotate entire backline when u already have to start with backup CBs.
Good question. Allegri rotated the GK more than the CBs for the first half of the season. Even against Bologna for the cup we fielded Chiellini-Bonucci, instead of giving Benatia some minutes. By doing that Allegri killed two birds with one stone: he forced Benatia out and ran Chiellini and Bonucci to the ground. Masterfully done.

Don't be too critical of Rugani he is still learning from BBC
He needs more Big Black Cock to man up.

I like Caceres but really never been convinced of his defending. He has always seemed like someone who relies on his physicality than defensive knowledge. Which worked at RB/3man RCB, but could get exposed at CB in a 2.

His positioning is often wrong and he doesn't make the correct decision when knowing when to just stand his ground. Inglese had once chance in the second half when Caceres seemed determined to try to steal the ball, he couldn't and Inglese got the shot away. If he just stood his ground behind there'd be no issue.

I would understand your point of view , but the second and third goal came from some terrible individual errors .

When have we ever conceded 6 goals in 2 matches with Bonucci vs Atalanta and Parma?
Ruganis has his positives over Bonucci. the most important one, he wont get bullied in the air like Bonucci always does. but these last 2 games show that he has a long way to go before being a regular starter here.
