A great 0-0 game, Kvara‘s pass at 1.25 is…:)

Was a poor game. A lot of people tuned in just for Kvara but he had a very quiet game. Napoli have many options in attack but the midfield was poor and couldn't get the ball forward fast enough
 
I enjoyed the Fiorentina-Napoli game. Mainly because I got to see the Amrabat of old.

Loving that Lobotka is getting consistent game time now. Hopefully Amrabat gets it too after a good showing.

Yeah, I also enjoyed Fio-Napoli game too. But everybody has their own opinions.

Kim and Milenkovic did well I thought but yeah not much going forward for either team

Kim performs well in his 3 matches in Napoli’s shirt. I really hope he will perform well until the end of the season( I have a soft spot for Asian players in Europe and he’s one of them).
 
I feel like Milan isnt being talked about enough... They have a really fun team with young prospects like Leao (who was great last season, especially when it got important), de Ketelaere, Kalulu, Tomori, Hernandez, Tonali, Bennacer, Maignan is still quite young for a goalkeeper.. Im really wondering how they will do this season, both in the Serie A (can they repeat their trick) and in the Champions League (how good are those guys really?)
 
Dybala with a brace. Roma taking full advantage of their easy schedule.
 
Another win for Roma and clean sheet.

Zero goals conceded from open play yet from Roma.
 
Also 3 set piece goals in 4 games. Roma seem dangerous at set pieces and in particular corners.
 
Inter got away easily tonight but we're in for a serious trashing with Milan and Bayern if we don't step up our defensive game
 
Since when was Vlahovic a free kick specialist? Scored another beauty almost identical to the one vs Roma.

 
Vlahovic has scored more freekicks for us in the last two games than Ronaldo did in three years :wenger:

Scored a similar one for Fiorentina against Cagliari a few weeks before that record transfer of his. But I don't seem to remember others. I don't think he took any for Juve last season.


The free kick I am talking about at 2:20 in this video.

 
Another great young signing by Milan with Sergino Dest.
 
So, well, we signed Acerbi
: puke : puke : puke : puke : puke : puke : puke :
 
Are Atalanta in any european competition this year?

Feels like one year they'll have a serious go at winning the title.

10 points from 4 games with just 2 goals conceded is a very solid start given they're usually slow out of the blocks. Koopmeiners with a hat trick so that's their annual midfielder that will hit 15-20 goals sorted.

Monza and Cremonese up next aswell.
 
Too early to make any prediction, even if Atalanta are Serie A leader they weren't very good in any of the first 4 games imho.
Also tonight I think Torino played overall a bit better but two stupid penalties conceded killed them.

For sure one between them and Roma should be top of the table at the beginning of the next international break given their following three fixtures

Atalanta has no European competition. That will advantage them from here to the WC break, but it’s unlikely to be enough on the long run.
 
Atalanta is looking scary. They don’t have any European Competition. So, they will focus intensively on Calcio this season.
 
Hopefully our new signings (in the midfield, especially) are a bit more lively and proactive with the ball… I’m almost feeling bad for Allegri, the new “Cersei”, the mad ruler in charge of emasculating so many talented, misrepresented, misunderstood delicate flowers. :lol:

Wish he'd show this for the national team. He's been exclusively shit for Oranje sadly.

Just needs time to find his role. Trouble is he’s so good at lots of areas in midfield he benefits from a clear role and often tries to do a bit too much.

I think it’s a hangover from being Mr AZ for a few years.

well ok then

He's a 35 yo, past-it old fart who was out of squad at fekin Lazio.
Arguably his only redeeming quality is that he's an old buddy of the coach who trust and knows him well... aaaand we all know how well that kind of profile has worked out for us in the last five years :/

The 4th CB in a squad that plays 3 at the back is a rather important role, rotations wise.
When knew since last spring that, even if we held up on Bastoni and Skriniar in the summer, we were going to have a hole in the squad with only 3 natural CBs (two and half, actually, as Bastoni can't really play center), as it was understood that old man Ranocchia's time here was over and young boy Pirola was in need of some more loan-out time.

And all we were able to come up with was this sack of loaned crap at the very last day of the transfer market.

(all while, say, watching Milan pluggin the sudden unexpected hole of Florenzi injury by loaning a Sergino Dest in less than 24h...)


If there is a walking and breathing symbol of our current lack of resources, planning, vision, scouting, and courage, it's this guy.


And on top of that, like a cherry (or better, parallel to that, as for a real romantic Inter tifoso that is a hard no-go by itself):

- dude is a wild Milan tifoso, Fossa dei Leoni ultras in his teens, who cites his stint for Milan as the dream of a lifetime;
- who just four months ago was enjoying himself like this:

lazio-milan-acerbi-marusic.jpg


Looking at him coming in for Skriniar or Bastoni will be like rubbing salt all year long on the open wounds of my heart, making it impossible to forget how badly we threw the league away last season and how easy it was for Milan to pick it up and run with it to the end.


Now please excuse me I gotta go throw up some more.

So you’re on the fence about it?
 
Oh this is shaping up to be the sort of game where juventus take 3 shots to their opponent's 20 and still win
 
Awful from Juve. Completely outplayed. Not even capable of crossing midfield.
