I was shocked to find the starting line-up announced. My mind confused, unable to make any sense in what appeared a proper formation absent of any players obviously out of position or expected to play hybrid roles. How could this be happening???…

All is hideous presently with Juve. Poor form, poor results. Pirlo’s position questioned hourly. Dumped out the CL with two awful games against a team we were expected to beat. Dropping down the table with now CL qualification very much in jeopardy.…
“The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result” PRE-MATCH Well, where to begin? Pretty much the entire build up to the Derby was negative, and that’s being polite. If fans thought that…
A quiet time for juve matters on field, which leads to the usual recalibration of focus towards the mercato, even though that circus remains an age away. Still, as it is all we have, it seems worth joining in the cacophony… Aguero…
We have the weakest coach in every competition we have entered this campaign. Yet one of the strongest squads. I would suggest we also have one of, if not the weakest coaching teams – given Pirlo brought in other inexperienced staff to…
When Maurizio Sarri was announced as the Juventus manager back in the beginning of the 2019/20 season, what excited me the most was the possibility of growth that Dybala could endure under him. We all saw what the compulsive smoking tactician did…
Our final league fixture before the international break finds Benevento visiting Turin. Managed by our former goal poacher specialist Pippo Inzaghi the visitors are very much still in the mix to secure their top flight status, and still have much to play…
With still a further season remaining on the ageing superstar’s mega contract, our recent failure in the CL and worrying financial situation may well meet with Ronaldo’s eagerness to finish his career at the top…which is certainly not where he finds himself…
A decent first half showing with Ronaldo capitalizing on some appalling defending for a well taken hatrick and 0-3 lead at the break. Unfortunately, we emerged from the changing rooms lethargic, disjointed and were outplayed for most of the remainder of the…
I will dispense with much muttering for there is only one thing on all our minds… We expect a RESPONSE. We expect to see the players from the first to the last whistle fighting for every ball, dominating every challenge, responding with…
The angst continues to burn hot in many, occupy any media ever focused on Juve, with the same cycle of questions raised. Is the Ronaldo purchase costing us too much for too little? Is Pirlo so out of his depth that he…
After all the chaos of COVID, playing to empty stadiums, injuries, Pirlo learning on the job, keeping us in the running (just) for all we seek to win, our whole season narrows down, becomes blinkered upon this fixture. We can talk of…
We return to league action this weekend with the hope of building upon the comprehensive second half drubbing of Spezia. A match which continued our hapless form for an hour before Pirlo rectified his mistakes and turned the tide instantly. Will he…
After an hour of listless, uncoordinated failure to string even three passes together in the final third, Pirlo offered evidence that he may still have the solutions to the problems, even if the problems are (partly) of his own manufacture. A sign…
Much furore abounded after the abject performance against Verona. Pirlo showed signs of cracking in the post match interview. More mainstream pundits have begun to pose the same concerns many here at ZJ have long whined and rambled with the tactics, the…
I am unsurprised to find the press asking more questions of Pirlo’s selection and system. They echo the bother a fair few of us have held since the season begun. Close to every game we have seen players placed in unnatural roles,…
After the training session against Crotone, news of mega financial losses and a growing injury list…we head to the romantic city of Verona this weekend. A tie which should/could offer at least a semblance of a more accurate barometer of our current…
The latest Board of Directors financial report makes worrying reading. “In detail, the higher loss in the first half of the year is essentially attributable to lower revenues of € 64 million, related to lower revenues from players’ registration rights (€ 55…
A fairly business-like performance, spurning far more chances than we converted, saw us run out easy winners in the easiest fixture we will face this season. Ronaldo was in fine form, who we relied upon as usual, taking two headers well, yet…
Juve welcome basement dwellers Crotone tonight and the opportunity to regain any semblance of form could not come more gift wrapped. For our opponents are wretched, having lost 5 of their last 6 games and looking certainties for relegation. After the horror…
