I don't expect pep to do it but I really think we should write this off and play a predominately EDS side.

Chances of us winning with our best available side aren't that great as it is, chances of us winning all 3 remaining games is much slimmer still and chances of getting top 8 even with 3 wins isn't close to being a safe bet either. Best bet is to rest who needs it and whoever needs looking after and get as fit of a team as possible for the derby. Settle for the play offs, it's 2 games post January when we should have a signficantly fitter and beefier squad, the sacrifice is minimal.

Surprised to learn their stadium only holds 42k considering they are the biggest team in Italy

Yeah it's a weird thing with Juventus, they are Italy's team and yet their crowds have historically been dwarfed by the Milan sides
 
Struggled against Palace don’t fancy us against Juve tbh. Pace of the game might suit us better mind.
 
1 win in 6 for juve but 5 draws there squad seems a little stretched too atm. They will play on the counter and will be happy with a draw think we would also settle for that but hoping kdb and haaland can be the difference.

There's a big under estimation of how poor Juve & Italian football in general is.

They're nowhere near the force they were.

We're coming home with 3 points & 3 goals.

We couldn't beat Inter in September with Rodri in the team, and Atalanta won 3:0 vs Leverkusen who went the whole season unbeaten prior to the EL final. Serie A is not the best league, but still one of the top 3-4 leagues in Europe.

Juventus are not a top team right now, but they are better than Palace who caused us a lot of problems. I'd say they are better than Sporting and Spurs, too, or at least not worse than them.

Hopefully we’ll have a few players fitter & therefore more effective
 
Can't see Kev starting this one. Presuming he starts against united on Sunday that'd be four starts in a row since his injury. Would like to see Jack and Bernardo inside with Doku and Savinho on the wings, presuming Foden isn't fit.
