I suspect our downward spiral has to do with something behind the scenes. The good (and arguably bad) thing about our club is that nothing ever really leaks. That footage of Allegri furiously yelling at Marotta and Paratici was captured by a fan and we still don't and will never know the full story. -_-
Evra better fuck off and quickly, I don't like this.
or maybe we were just unlucky in our games, I don't know. In any case, I hope our credit of fuck ups is depleted already
you know what, I actually think that years from now I'm gonna remember La La Land just as fondly

By Lunatic Go To PostThat is a lovely shirt but alas since Del Piero and Pirlo left I haven't watch a single game so have no right to purchase a shirt; that and a well know terrorist known as "Yurt" supports them.

Seeing Split for free this evening. Since it's free I'm pretty hopeful. New XxX day after also for free can't wait for that one.
Great to know that I'm still being considered as negotiation capital by May. Al, can you hear me from the Nakatomi Plaza?
By Frustrated_me Go To PostI'm sure this was posted many times already but I can't be arsed to check.. Fuck me this is a beautiful shirt.Bought.

It has absolutely nothing to do with Allegri. It has everything to do with our midfield, imo. Losing Pogba was a big hit, one we've yet to recover from. Just as we still haven't properly replaced Vidal. Pjanic has been pretty good so far - great, even, if you're only looking at his assists / goals numbers, but he's more of an upper third player.
More often than not we're playing with Marchisio, Khedira and Sturaro in the middle. Marchisio is sensational, but he's clearly not himself yet. Needs another couple of months at least, probably. Khedira isn't having a spectacular season either. Quite the contrary, actually. He rarely has a bad game and he's never injured, incredibly, but the standard of his performances is significantly lower this season. Sturaro is ... Sturaro. Has his uses, but he's simply not good enough to be a starter for Juve.
Mix it all together, add in the fact that you can't realistically expect players to show the same level of motivation in Serie A after 5 scudettos in a row ... and that's that, really. I think the club is well aware of the problem and will be looking for a marquee midfield signing this summer. The usual suspects are saying Verratti, I hope it's someone else.

it's all over Zabo, we even went as far as changing our whole brand as an attempt to shift attention elsewhere. I'm on to them
but come on, our complacency and lack of palpable grinta is all down to Allegri! Sure the players share some of the blame for being Schweinsteigers, but it is HIS job to be their Neuer
One of our defeats was just down to bad luck (or one such as doicare might even say plain robbery), fine, but fuck me the other 3-4 were infuriating, we don't look like we learned ANYTHING. We've been shutting down for 45 minutes a lot lately
Evra and Licht being rotated in and out is poor planning, Evra shouldn't have stayed AT ALL then. Any of our terrible youth players would've played more at this point I reckon :lol so much for his European experience
think you're waaaay overestimating the importance of Pogba, he's been adequately replaced by a creator like Pjanic and a monster goalscorer in Higuain, that's mostly what he offered and I think we're well covered as far as his pitch contributions are concerned. What we still need though is a Vidal, or someone with a brain and two knees. Marchisio can either play further forward or back, he was our Pogba in 2012 lest we forget, so we can go two DMs and Marchisio being slightly more attacking.
So yeah, Marchisio-Sami is fine...still missing that elusive third one, who doesn't need to be a Pogba or a Verratti IMO. Just someone rounded up and fucking solid. Matuiduidudu would've been ACE....fucking Qatari cunt
but the problems lately are in defense, incredibly...and not in attack or midfield. Players and fullbacks switching off completely. All of them were injured at one point or another so that's just unfortunate I guess
can we just fucking start Pjanic every single fucking game too, please? How many times can one person get THE FLU
MAN UP YOU BITCH
SNEEZE ON OUR OPPONENTS. INFECT THEM WITH YOUR GERMS. That would be a brilliant 1st half strategy honestly, just have him run around coughing and sneezing on everyone and we'll reap the rewards in the second half
there, Allegri, I solved it. Now we can go back to our old crest
(we will be fiine. At worst Higuain will carry us to one title)
Give me Shia Labouf and Michael b jordan in the white men can't jump remake. Instead we will get Seth rogan and Kevin harrt...
I said damn that juve shirt is sexy.
Elche what season of narcos did you finish? I had the same problem afterwards, while not faultless it's INCREDIBLE tv imo.
Random comment as it was discussed yday but I always thought BBC had some of the best production values in the world, planet earth, top gear, masterchef etc

Yeah, someone like Matuidi would've been a godsend. Pjanic + Matuidi to replace the #EmojiLad was obviously the plan, but alas ...
I guess with Allegri we can't really hope for a 'beautiful' midfield, but rahter expect a highly functional one. Which I'm somewhat begrudgingly okay with on the conceptual level, seeing how we have Pjanic and Dybala (and Higuain) to take care of business up front.

By Hitch Go To PostAs far as I can tell we have fuck all to offer the EU as outsiders in comparison to what we'll want to continue to take. Don't see that we have much bargaining power for these threats to carry much weight. Walking away from the deals on the table would surely only do more damage. Then again, the entire thing is a textbook example of self-sabotage, so fuck knows what lengths we'll go to just to pretend that we're some underdogs breaking the shackles of our foreign oppressors.Clearly we are not in an ideal position by any means - but the 'remoaners' are certainly portraying the position to be far worse than it actually is.
Give us access to the single market ya shits.
For one - May's speech had to be this way. Put aside all the revisionism of the empire and the completely misleading cues about what we voted for - and she had to set out a firm stance.
Second - This is a major headache for the EU. They risk losing one of their most valuable assets from what is already a creaking union. The risks to them are serious financially and existentially.
Of course this is a really complex situstion so there are many ways this could go and Europe could just as likely choose to give us the cold shoulder. But I don't think the negotiating position is that bad. What's more concerning is whether we have the nous and capability to actually negotiate 1) a 'good' deal and 2) a deal that is good beyond the next 5 years. Westminster has a long lasting short termism about it and these negotiations will be coming to their crunch very close to election time.

I can't see a reason why, with the Union creaking, we've given them any choice other than to completely destroy us. They have to send a message. Look at what happens to those that leave. There is no comparatively appreciable benefit to them giving us a good deal.
Or they can just admit they're making a mistake and not bow to the pressure of a non-binding referendum built on a foundation of the softest bullshit targeted at racists and people too fucking dumb to make use of all the rights they have whilst being part of the EU.
Theresa May is a horrible person and morally unfit to lead anything but a coven.

but to be fair, he has 36 assists!!
By Zabojnik Go To PostYeah, someone like Matuidi would've been a godsend. Pjanic + Matuidi to replace the #EmojiLad was obviously the plan, but alas …and two SENSATIONAL wingbacks to support them <3 who knows maybe we're really just missing the boy Dani

Zabo we'll be fine, we're fine, I am fine. This but a fake downward spiral, just like United's winning run was a fake corner turn.

There's lots of time and it will be done. It might even be a decent price soon.

Not worth more than 15 bucks. Or grab it as HD rerelease for PS5 or PS6.

bought it weeks ago for 25 raheems. Worth the price, it's beats SotC for me. Probably GOTY 2016.
By bud Go To Postsome company was paid a lot of money to come up with that new juventus logo.
they probably had 200 other ideas they thought were as good or better. ultimately the client looks at them all and guides the direction the revisions go in.

By Ciaran Go To Postthis is a cool idea too
Voltron you guys
scudetto badge slots in perfectly. Hope we win it ;_;
would buy that shirt day one if that is what it does
Can't decide whether I'm happy with Depay going for £15m or not.
I mean it's a 50% loss, but it's probably a fair price for what he's actually contributed.
