I remember Conte as a player. A heartbeat of the side, who would give his all for every second of every match. He was not just determined, he was a berserker, who truly seemed to live and die by the shared cause of our success and failure. Never the most technically gifted, his game was […]

“We want to achieve the maximum in every competition we take part in,” continued Marotta. “The Coppa Italia brings lustre to Italian football and tonight we’ll try to honour it. “We have a line-up that fully reflects the expectations of the club.

The 1-1 draw at home to Sampdoria was a testament to the timeless adage ‘a game of two halves’. So complete was our control during the first period, so intense our attacking waves and with our opponents penned into heir own half, often with ten men behind the ball; I was expecting an avalanche of […]

What transpired however, was nothing of the sort… Zaza rivaled Tevez for the most potent […]

With the dawn of the new season almost within sight, much remains unresolved with our beloved Juve. Why are we apparently seeking additions to the front line? True enough, Morata is injured. The official site suggested 50 days as his time away from potential selection. recent updates report that he is aiming for the Udinese […]

I managed to endure most of the match via a choppy set of streams, only finding the arabic option for the last 15 minutes, which was near perfect. Shame the same cannot be said of the football on show… Looking at our starting line-up of…Storari, Sorensen, Bonucci, Chiellini, Lichtsteiner, Padoin, Pirlo, Pereyra, Motta, Giovinco, Llorente…We […]

It astonishes me to find a fan as committed and intelligent as yourself seriously suggesting that Beppe Marotta is to blame for the recent upheaval and so heavy is his culpability that he should be shown the door. The vast majority of the players who have brought us such brilliant domestic success over the last […]
