Buffon – Little to do, but dealt with all but the deflected goal comfortably. 6 Bonucci – Fairly solid, showed good reading of the game and allowed no clear opportunities when faced with the counter attacks – 6 Demiral – Thankfully no…

I was quite appalled by the performance in the week against Barcelona. Not at all encouraged by the three disallowed goals, for on the other side of the idea of how close we were to scoring thrice, applying the same reasoning to…
Szczeseny – Perhaps could have done better on the goal yet it was hit with some power. Distribution sloppy to poor throughout. 5.5 Bonucci – Held the rearguard line well enough though his whining irritates me as does his lack of choosing…
Whilst the performance was anything but fluid, Pirlo emerged from his debut champions league bow as a manager with 3 very important points and a clean sheet in what proved a fairly comprehensive victory. Next on the fixture list back home in…
Szczesny – Only had one half serious save to make in the whole 93 minutes of game time, dealt with everything else with ease. 6 Chiellini – I expected to find Chiellini more injured than available this season as the old chap’s…
Berakhirnya Jendela Transfer… Akhirnya berakhir sudah masa jendela transfer yang selalu penuh intrik bak sirkus. Kini semua rumor mulai mereda dan penggawa Juventus dapat memulai musim dengan tenang. Sebelum saya memulai analisa saya, sambil sesekali melirik ke arah layar macbook agar terlihat…
contributed by Travis M. Gallardo Good tidings unto you and yours! I hope this muttering finds you well. It has been a significant bit of time since I’ve last put pen to paper. Alas, my old pal has asked me to take…
Player ratings Buffon – Was vital in making a save late in the first half and could do little more than he tried for the penalty. A calming presence at the back when the side faced pressure. 6 Demiral – Beastly, strong…
With the international break now complete, we return to domestic action with what seems at least on paper one of the least challenging games of the season. The squad is suffering somewhat, as are many others, with the addition to the sick…
Finally the circus of the mercato -which always trends at the final turn towards musical chairs – comes to an end. The rumour mill put into neutral and the squads now settled. Before I begin my analysis, as I try to remember…
After the nervous excitement of Pirlo’s debut on the bench, on any bench to be fair, in the 3-0 drubbing of Sampdoria last week, we were brought back down to Earth in the capital in a match which demonstrated problems both on…
How bizarre a feeling prior to the whistle was blown and first flurry of passes connected! Somehow unable to shake that ludicrous notion that the complete absence of any managerial experience could well lead to the players running around like headless chickens…a…
I seem to have developed a sporadic case of hysteria. With any serious rumours of tactics and transfers sending me quickly towards wild joy or plummeting deep into a well of woe. Its taking some effort to strike the middle ground! Which…
Saturday 8th August was a circus of the bizarre. It was as if the sky became the ground, the compass spun, the poles of the planet played musical chairs. Not for long, but long enough to cause all of us to experience…
[Editors note: The following article was written prior to the news of Maurizio Sarri’s sacking] Such strange and contrasting emotions were abounding in my essence as the final few minutes of stoppage time wore down. Part of me was wanting the proudly…
I had thought it was all over for the B team, and yet, it transpires that through winning the Serie C coppa italia, Pecchia’s troops qualified for the first round of the promotion playoffs. Goals: 54′ Zanimacchia, 67′ Frabotta Juventus U23 (4-2-3-1): Loria; Di…
Fabio Pecchia ended his debut campaign as U23 coach with victory in the Serie C coppa italia final on Saturday. Goals from Brunori and Rafia earned the side a 2-1 victory over Ternana. Unsurprisingly its the first time we have ever won…
I gain no pleasure from finding echoes of my own longstanding cynicism emerging from other commentators. For when it comes to Juve, I always want to be proven completely wrong with my repetitive wailing of all that is deflating and worrying. And…
Prior to the Corona issue I had started writing this piece in early March, which still seems timely enough to continue with thoughts of the now, for the break has not changed, just dulled, my despondency which was happily tempered by the…
I have long been a fan of Rolando Mandragora. He looked superb in his early career – a strapping lad, dominant in the middle of the park, able to pass, hustle, win much in the air due to his physical outline, tenacious,…
