Juventus (A) | CL | Post Match Thread

[Lee the Blue]

Same performance again. Not too fussed tbh as we aren't going anywhere in this comp anyway if we are honest with ourselves.

Pep is setting us up to play as though Rodri is still there protecting the back 4, and KDB & Gundo are in their mid-20s & marching up/down the pitch. Maybe it's got to be this bad for the club to do something in Jan? Multiple additions are needed as the midfield has fossilised and lacks quality/legs/physicality/energy/nous.

Too many players playing regular minutes for us who are either past their best, or never at the level we need.

The last class midfielder we brought in was Rodri in Summer 2019.

I was going to wait until the thread doesn’t get a hundred posts per minute. But fuck it.

Some of you should fuck off and support someone else, and I say support lightly. Even camel gob has just said it right. It’s great when it’s going well, but when it’s not you dig in.

A complete **** in the match day thread said Haaland is rubbish. We didn’t do the treble without him. The previous Haaland we had, it was just nice to win.

Some of you need to get your minges turned back into cock and balls and man the fuck up. You are a disgrace!!!

Gets a like for the word 'minges'.

Lose against the rags and I can see him walking.

We need to be mega vocal on Sunday and back the manager.

We can sell every single one of those useless embarrassments on the pitch for all I care but Pep needs our support.

Very average Juve side, last team not to score against them in Europe was Malmo in 2021 at home. We never looked like scoring, ponderous, slow build up play. Easy to play through our midfield. At this rate we will be lucky to get into the play off round. Pep has a lot of work to do to get this group's confidence up.

Can’t believe anyone questioning Pep

Embarrassing that. They were awful and yet still won comfortably to show just how dreadful we were.

What did Pep have in his mind as to how we were going to win that game? I'd love to know the plan. From watching that. The players didn't know it either.

We created fuck all! 1 genuine chance from a bit of individual brilliance all game, that's a shocking lack of creativity and it's got nothing to do with injuries.

Players who are dead on their feet have now got more minutes into their legs for zero reward, can only hope there's no more knocks to compound the misery.

Pep didn't change anything, he brought on like for like subs as if to say it was the players not doing it when it's Peps piss poor tactics.

 

[Stelea]

Fucking disaster of a season.
Cannot go on like this playing this type of football with these players.
There are more ways to play football than the way we do
Will be out of UCL and be lucky for a top half finish in Prem, it’s that bad.
Played well for 10 at 1-0 but created no chances and then conceded another wank goal.
Shambles and god help this Sunday!

Did anyone really expect anything different when the team sheet came out? Running out there with Silva/Gundo/Walker/Lewis again? We're giving up a couple, and in the same damned way.

Particularly if Josko goes brain dead at all and Eddy's thinking about sweet Saudi money.

Either change the tactics or change the lineup. Because playing these guys this way is going to end up like it did today.

This 11 isn't beating United. I'd rather lose trying something different than running this shit out there again and knowing the outcome before the match starts.

Another defeat that tbh isn’t a huge surprise. It’ll be a relieve if we are able to get in the play-offs as I gather we will get 3p max in the two remaining games.

 

[meeesh]

This will be the first derby they’ve looked forward to in over a decade, sadly!

And they’ll come and play the best they have all season, see it now
