The Boss has weathered the storm…Carpi 2-3 Juventus
December 21, 2015
I had planned on conjuring my analysis of the chaotic Carpi match from many pages of notes I made during the game. Yet all I find is the rabid rantings of a lunatic. Passages of writing which have no place on your screen which must be written off as some form of accident. I was […]
Palermo 0 -3 Juventus
November 30, 2015
Palermo 0 – 3 Juventus Entering this game with a semblance of form and confidence after despatching Man City mid-week and our recent results – if not our performances – improving domestically Allegri decided to stick with the 3-5-2 swapping only the wide men. In came Evra and Cuadrado for Lichsteiner and Sandro. Setting themselves […]
mangled muttering – Can juve turn the corner?
November 10, 2015
I suspect you would have got brilliant odds on Juve finding themselves 9 points off top with 12 games played, having only just managed to scrape together back to back victories for the first time season, in November. Yet does the recent run suggest an upturn in form is on the horizon? My instinct is […]
The trouble with Juventus…
September 15, 2015
It has indeed been a truly wretched start to the season. Whilst my focus has been very much elsewhere the tribalism I feel towards the club has remained potent enough to maintain a keen vigil even when consumed with other happenings. Supporting a club is supporting a cause, perhaps not the most righteous or heart-felt, […]
Will Pogba leave Juventus?
May 13, 2015
Pogba is the most naturally gifted player I have seen at such a young age, not just in our colours but in any colours, since Zidane appeared from Bordeaux. He is already one of the finest offensive midfielders in the game and has huge scope for improvement. I would be bothered to see him […]
Juventus win 33rd scudetto
May 3, 2015
We have been in haphazard form of late. Due mainly to injuries and a constantly changing side. Other than which, our finest, most dynamic player in Pogba has been sidelined. However, the sign of a truly great team is to win and succeed when not playing well. And we have that now. No longer does […]
Quick-fire reaction to Juve reaching the Champions league Semi-Finals
April 24, 2015
Our goal was to re-establish ourselves as a top 8 side in Europe. This has been achieved. Perhaps not at a canter in the last stage, but Monaco have only one way to play and in the first leg we worked damn hard for the goal leaving us able to play Monaco at their own […]

March 8, 2015
“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. We must do well to take any opportunity to raise the bar.” – […]
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 […]
Sassuolo 1-1 Juventus
October 19, 2014
Approaching this fixture many, if not all of us, were expecting a dominant triumph. First v last. Surely a handsome victory and all we would be left to speak of after the final whistle was the manner of our victory?. What transpired however, was nothing of the sort… Zaza rivaled Tevez for the most potent […]
