Juventus (A) | CL | Post Match Thread

The football we actually play has got progressively slower and shit to watch before the end of last season, the fact we won the title masked it a bit but there were some absolutely shite performances even then, teams have just totally worked out how we play, we are slow, can't defend, we pass the ball for the sake of it, you watch how teams defend against us now, they don't move, they stand still and know we can't do anything with the ball anyway so just let us fuck about with it. Genuinely think we've run out of ideas and that comes from the top down.

Best team in the country wins the Prem over 38 games - no ifs, no buts, no maybes. Winning the Prem doesn't mask anything.

There is more chance of me starting in central midfield than Nunes, forget about it mate, Pep won't change his mind.

Well its gonna cost us again and again…

There is a lot to unpack on both goals, but the lack of anyone in midfield for both goals as they break is frankly ludicrous…. I’ve seen better organised under 10’s!!

Maybe Pep thinks they could do worse and wants to spare them being thrown to the wolves in a team that isn't playing well right now.

Well in that case he certainly has no problem throwing Rico to the wolves.

Only December and the season is a write off.

I expect much more of this for the next few months, but still have faith that Pep will fix it eventually.

It’s not a write off, we’re very much in a top 4 battle

Top 4, beat the charges, take that and we reset in the summer

The recruitment over the last two summer windows hasn't been good enough.

However, the clubs planning has led to us being the most successful team of the last decade.

So, it's really hard to criticise them too much. As many on here are doing.

For me that's the crux of the issue. For years we have seen the club plan and build, move players on and bring in quality replacements (Dias for Kompany etc).

Yet for the last few years complacency and a change of attitude from continuously building for the future to not even bothering to address these glaring issues and becoming the 'net spend champions' has happened.

Other fans say we are boring to watch when we win but I only find us boring when we lose

 

[Moss Side's Finest]

There’s a difference between taking shots at the club and saying after every match that he thinks we played well and he’s proud of the players

It's irrelevant what he says really. As a fan I just want the team to play better.

The definition of stupidity is to keep doing the same thing that isnt working. Our problem is it always used to work so who is being stupid players/manager/management - all of the above or non of the above. God knows. Bit since it out of my control why worry i cant affect it.

Ok let's be Real Madrid then, win at all costs is their mantra, personally I like to be entertained as well! The football we are playing is mind numbingly shit whichever way you look at it.
