I had conjured a lengthy piece after the Verona game. Yet after re-reading my cynical mutterings I found too many echoes of previous reports. And I am well aware that a one trick pony gets quickly boring. Even a heretic must find…
I had conjured a lengthy piece after the Verona game. Yet after re-reading my cynical mutterings I found too many echoes of previous reports. And I am well aware that a one trick pony gets quickly boring. Even a heretic must find…
With the senior side failing to spark into life, drudgery abounds domestically with some life still found on the European front, it seems a good time to look to the youth sides and investments for a progress report and to highlight any…
The performance in Riyad came as no surprise, nor the result. A defeat serving as a clear and fair barometer of the first half of Sarri’s debut campaign in the hot seat. Still though, it was somehow appalling. It is not as…
Perhaps there is something of value to astrology. For my chart suggests I am an egomaniac, berserk Romeo with a monstrous intensity in the 12th house. My dreams are never something to simply shake off as the creation of the brain when…
After the lengthy process of finally announcing Sarri as the new boss, we have now moved onto the usual mercato meanderings though to be fair the club do appear to have very clear goals and are working swiftly to get the squad…
How bizarre our mercato suddenly seems, at least with first glance and a primal response. The laudable work to bring in Rabiot, Ramsey and De Ligt as huge and much needed signings. Added to the Demiral and Romero deals. Everything was looking…
With the managerial situation resolved, the midfield and defence hugely upgraded and the mercato still very much in full swing I feel there is cause to open discussions regarding the major tactical questions regarding our new era… I am not the only…
I didnt think we would sign him. His middle finger salute. His complete lack of being a company man. His exchange with Mancini. His character of holding firm to his values, no matter the cost. His time at Naples and mumblings of…
What began as exciting, the dawn of a new era, something we all wanted to happen but thought never could…has now slowly descended to confusion, deflation and some concern. Juventus are a multi-million EURO business owned by a multi billion EURO business.…
Its been a damn whirlwind of incessant tweets and journalists with inside knowledge and denials and hopes and dreams rising so swiftly then dashed against the rocks as abruptly as they appeared and we find ourselves back to the same scene with…
And so its finally happened… The departure of Max Allegri official, despite the words of Andrea Agnelli of late and Paratici, who we can no longer trust as a result of this, yet in the same breath, we can thank them for…
Whilst the seniors were made to appear laboured, disjointed, ancient in their movements when faced with the youthful exuberance of the Ajax squad which outplayed them over both legs of the recent senior ties in the Champions League, the tables were turned…
Waking at 432am, stumbling and grumbling to the kitchen to avoid waking the mad pixie queen and her slumbering toddler, I was not exactly horrified or surprised, but certainly disheartened by the starting XI Max deployed. Bentancur had been one of the…
Already exhausted from my endeavour in organising a day of street entertainment live in the city, rolling back the years and rushing around like a spritely youth, my steadily ageing mind and body wanted to slump for many hours through the night,…
Whilst many are still reveling in the afterglow of Tuesday eve’s heroics – rightfully so – it seems a decent time to offer my first positive appraisal of Max and the direction of the side as a whole for too many moons…
I have been surprised this season. Not by the anaemic outing in Spain last night. Nor by our performances since August. No, it is not what has been on show on field that has surprised me, it has been the steady delusion…
It has been coming. I have watched plenty of games this season, close to every match of the last few years, and the only surprise is that it has taken this long for us to find our luck well running dry. For…
It has been a fair while since I delved into the youth sector, though I have been keeping abreast of the general form of the primavera and of course the debut campaign of the U23 side. After my lengthy analysis of the…
A lot of discussion abounds when a player leaves any close to major Premier League club and especially when they are signed by a top European side outside of England. The first area of discussion is the price. The deal looks set…
I had the misfortune over the festive period of finding no good reason to avoid watching our beloved Juve live on Russian sopcast link. Which is not to say that I have not kept abreast of our games, in fact I have…
