Max Allegri’s Juventus has been mocked for being confused on the pitch when they faced Fiorentina yesterday.
The Bianconeri secured a 1-1 draw against La Viola, but they started the game well and took an early lead.
Fans expected them to improve on that performance and do even better in the second half.
But it never happened and Juve could even feel lucky they didn’t concede more goals as the hosts grew more confident in the game.
The Italian media have now rated and slated them for their performance in the game.
La Gazzetta Dello Sport was very critical of Max Allegri’s team, and they rated him 5/10 for his team’s performance in the game, adding:
“Juventus sat deep like a small team. Is it why they don’t know how to attack or because it’s a request from the boss?
“It would be interesting to know. Lots of doubts and a lot of confusion. He [Allegri] ended the game with five defenders.”
Juve FC Says
Our display against Fiorentina was poor and the media outlet is right to be scathing in their remarks about our performance.
Juve remains one of the biggest clubs in the world and we must show this every time we step onto the pitch.
We have not been doing that this season, and that has made us a target for criticism.
WE are becoming a laughing stock now, good for meme jokes. Giovanni Agnelli would be turning over in his grave with the way Andrea is running this club.
holly crap 5 defender? hahahha
now he got paredes so they can defense all night long. as expected from brilliant coach
Yeah right, LA GAZZETTA DELLO SPORT mocks Allegri and JUVENTUS and praises to high heavens MILAN and INTER. What;s new?
Still, looking at the league table one notes that the GREAT AC MILAN is on 11 points, while INTER and JUVE are on 9.
WOW………such a great difference!
And again LIES, LIES, LIES.
FIVE DEFENDERS……..not true.
Juve started with FOUR at the back
CUADRADO ( who is attack minded) – DANILO – BREMER and SANDRO
and ended the game with a BACK THREE <
DANILO – BONUCCI – BREMER
supported by two wing BACKS ( pushed really deep by VIOLA's forcing) ie DE SCIGLIO ( a defender, true) and MOISE KEAN ( a forward) on the LEFT.
At most there were FOUR defenders at any one time………even CONTE plays with THREE CENTRALS and two wing backs.
But we know all about the nasty games of the media. AUGMENTED VIRTUAL reality.
yes, but our games even weaker than last season, why can this coach still be around.. it is a shame, with that money spent and the players around, we do not play better than Spezzia or Sassuolo and that is indeed a shame
Can the GAZZETTA dello SPORT name the FIVE DEFENDERS
“It would be interesting to know. Lots of doubts and a lot of confusion. He [Allegri] ended the game with five defenders.”
I watched the game and there were
DE SCIGLIO, DANILO, BONUCCI and BREMER in the latter part of the game>
Cuadrado and SANDRO had already been replaced.
Can the GAZZETTA dello SPORT provide any evidence about the FIFTH MYSTERY DEFENDER?
Relax. They don’t read juvefc.com they’re not listening to your comments. Who cares. It’s just a game. Entertainment. If get so bent out shape then Juve should be paying us.
Is true Spezia they play better than Juve and Fiorentina deserved to win, Allegri must be careful, could be worst games to come, Small teams are more dangerous for Juve, why Vlahovic he didn’t play against Fiorentina.
I was hopping to see Allegri´s Juventus performing well with the new players, but after the preseason and the first matches, Juventus is playing like a small team. We can notice that Juventus needs a new coach. Otherwise Juventus fans have to be prepare to end in a 4, 5 or even 6 position in the league. Allegri out.
