Juventus 2-0 Chievo
January 26, 2015
With Pirlo succumbing to flu, the always dependable Marchisio replaced him as the fulcrum to the side. Morata was rewarded for his recent hints of finding form by starting up top alongside Tevez. Other than which, the only placement of note was Vidal returning to a more centrally focused midfield role as Pereyra found himself […]

January 18, 2015
U19 The primavera have endured a haphazard season to date, with a constantly changing first XI and boss Fabio Grosso still learning on the job. Our latest outing was a home tie against rock bottom in the league Varese. Which we won 4-3. After racing to a 2-0 lead, the perennially prone to injury Captain […]
Juve Winter Mercato Preview December 2014
December 27, 2014
Despite the disappointing loss to Napoli in the SuperCup, Allegri’s debut season as Juve coach has gone as much to plan as any of us could have hoped.

Juventus 1-1 Sampdoria 14.12.2014
December 15, 2014
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 […]

Senegalese giant Mbaye Diagne was signed by Juve in the Summer of 2013 after a sterling season at Serie D side, during which he plundered 23 goals from 29 games.

Juventus Primavera update 7th December 2014
December 7, 2014
Primavera Coppa – Juventus v Livorno Our opponents were sitting pretty in the top five of League C of the U19s and in half decent form. With our own domestic progress this term haphazard, already out of the UEFA Youth League with one game still to play, it was hoped that we could begin to […]

It appears that despite interest from Chelsea amongst other top european clubs, juve have won the race to sign budding croatian star Andrej Kramaric.

Lazio 0 – 3 Juventus 22/11/2014
November 23, 2014
With the wonderful fluidity and cutting edge displayed throughout the impressive 7-0 drubbing of parma, I was one of many slightly bothered with the international break and worried that players would lose their momentum, or worse still, return to the ranks exhausted or injured. Such concerns were aided by the decision of Conte to rest […]
Juventus Youth Update 4/11/2014
November 5, 2014
Out of his depth? Grosso’s primavera lads finally stopped the rot over the weekend with a comfortable 3-1 victory over Carpi. Which ended a largely uninspiring sequence of results beginning with the 1-0 defeat to Atletico in the UEFA League, followed up with a 0-2 home reverse tro Pro Vercelli. The 1-1 draw away to […]
