I'll have to disagree with those who said that we played a bad/awful game. We didn't play a perfect one but surely It was a good game against Trevisio, who did face us couple of times last year and lets not forget we played an away game.

Our first half was surely better than the 2nd, we combined well, Mauro was shining, Dp-Pavel combining perfectly, and Zanetti controlling the midfield. We should have probably ended our first half with 2 nil. But as long as we grabbed our 3points, I think I'm happy.

2nd half didn't start well, Gigi was class tonight, saving several shots, though he was about to commit huge mistake, but then everything went well.

Still my man of the match would be Mauro who ran alot and played with his heart.

I'm sorry for Del Piero not to net his 200th. But I can feel It coming soon. As for his game, he looked pretty fast tonight and was combining well with David and Pavel. Was just unlucky not to score.

I'll also have to disagree with some about our defenders as they really showed some legs out there, specially Kovac and Boumsong. As for Biri and Balza, their 2nd half was awful. But all in all, I'm still happy conceding 2goals in 6matches If I'm not mistakken.

Forza Juve.
Pavel and DP were both average actually and their combinations were non-existent.

well just saw the game and i disagree with the members here who stated we had an awful game. Trevisio r a good team, just came in from Serie A with semi-quality players like Guigo,Fava, and Vialli. Also they gave a very hard time in the first half and we didnt look that good, as they played a very high pressured game.
They didnt leave us any room to play our game.

2nd half they got tired and the spaces opened up and the forwards had room to maneuver and we created more chances.

Gigi-had his reflexes cap on last nite.Made some great saves, and i liked how he started to give out the orders when the shots started getting more n more on his goal. Overall great game :tup:

Kovac-wasnt his best game, but he was the most level head guy in the backline.Made some important challenges and one-on-one he was almost unbeatable. Considering he just had a big international game(s) then he did well.

Boumsong-His confidence is growing and thats great.He isnt getting caught out of position that much, and making some good challenges. Back to the confidence thing, i hope he doesnt get over-confident and then makes a mistake which will take us back to square one.Overall this game he did well.Although it would take sometime for him and kovac as solid in the back as we need.

biri-The only time he was effective going forward was in the build up to the goal. Got caught out of position alot and kovac had to cover for him. Shame really is that he used to have a good cross and a sweet right foot. Looks like the injury harmed him more than we though. Anyway overall, hes improving and thats important.

Balza-Fedirco had a very weird game.At times he looked very solid and going forward, providing crosses and a minute later he would give u a very bad pass and loss possesion easily.Also getting caught out of position.
The most important factor in this game imo for Balza was that he didnt look confident at all. I've seen him play last with more confident against huge opposition in the league and in the CL. Technically he is such a great player, his crosses were always precise and very dangerous. But he needs to regain his confidence back.DD should take notice of this game.

Paro-In the whole game he looked lost for some reason.He looked like he didnt know where he needed to be positioned, especially in the first half. Also he didnt work that hard for my liking.He has a very good talent(he showed that by some great vision,touches,even a couple of shots), but that wont get him anywhere if he doesnt run hard and work on his game. DD has his faith in him and he should repay it....to his credit he improved in the 2nd half and ran hard on a couple of occasions, and showed his class as well. Also most importantly in the 2nd half he was always the one providing support to the forwards , not zanetti.And IMO thats how its supposed to be.

Zanetti-Mybe i take more liking to the DMs as they r the forgetten soldiers...But this is mybe the 2nd successive game that Zanetti played a great game.He ran hard for the whole game and in the first half he was doing his job and Paro's as well.Took his goal with great technique like it was Trezi himself who shoot it. Keep up the good work Cristiano :tup:

Camo-Didnt start well, but as the game progressed he got his game back on track.Had some good runs and crosses.Pushed forward over his defensive duties at times but i think he had a good game overall.Linked well with the forwards a couple of times as well.And most importantly he feels like hes in a team now, and hes enjoying his football..So i think he will only improve.

Neddy-showed his class on a few occasions here n there.But couldnt provide the killer ball.Like camo he linked well with Alex and Trezi( there was this play between all three that was great in the 2nd half but couldnt finish the play)

Alex-Like DD said he looked like he enjoyed, especially after the goal he always showed his class with touches and some good runs. He contributed here and there.And could've scored right at the end after a marchionni through pass but he missed the goal by a little bit using a great chip.

Trezi-Ran hard and he always tried to set up the upcoming midfielders and Alex,Both combined well. Looked a bit tired in the 2nd half.His dissallowed goal was a bit unlucky, as if he held his run by just a matter milli seconds his goal would've been legit.

DD-Well he did well, liked the Chiellini- Biri sub, as we didnt look that good defensively. A point i put against him is that i thought Marchionni should've been introduced a bit before and Bojinov or Palladino to use their pace.
We had numerous counter attacks that didnt result in anything due to lack of pace upfront and on the flanks.
But it was a hard game considering the international break and the way Trevisio played on their home ground.So he did well overall.

agree on everything except Kovac except for that save he did he sucked especially in the dangerous play that the ref didnt call! that was extremely stupid from him! last year i always said that Kovac should join cannavaro when thuram was in a bad form but this year there is smthing not right about this man even with croitia!

Buffon to rescue!!! Give him the Ballon d'Or just for this game. :p

Apart from the superg goal, Zanetti was awesome. He was on every ball.

Paro dissapointed me today, without the ball he was useless. When Treviso bombared us in the 2nd I screames at my TV for DD to sub him with Giannichedda.

Boumsong was ok, Kovac and especially Birindelli was awfull.

Balzaretti was better on the right. You clearly see that Chiellini is the man for the LB position.

Del Piero tried to much for #200 and the team played for him. It didn't work. I hope we get an early pk next game to get it over with.
man i swear if the ballon d\or went to someone except canna or gigi i will be angry like crazy! anyway it is between them & pirlo,ronald,henry,kaka & zizou!!

ofcourse there is a difference this year.He doesnt have either Thuram or Canna next to him so his deficiencies appear more.

But i dont think he had such an awful game, although that was very dangerous play.

and i thought the played well croatia.Well at least according to mark83

So Juve had a bad day - it happens. We still won 3 points, we're no longer bottom of serie B & we retained a clean sheet:D . Lets put it behind us & look forward to the next game!

I really hope he can raise his game coz Boumsong in his best days is an average player!!
