Juventus v Roma PREVIEW
16 October 2021
Such a shame we had the international break to truncate what felt like a steady improvement in our form and results. The momentum was building, and with so many players sent away on national team duties, the fear is that we are back to square one. Yet a fair few remained, and no major new […]
Torino v Juve – Derby Della Mole
2 October 2021
After the impressive performance against Chelsea mid week, enthusiasm and hope are resurgent in the rank and file. Doubts of Max losing his way terribly were put to the sword as he got the tactics spot on, and the players maintained concentration for the full 95 minutes to bring home an unexpected, and deserved victory […]
Juve v Chelsea CL 29/9/21
29 September 2021
Our second toughest game of the group stage beckons with the visit of current European Champions Chelsea. With most juventini expecting very little, given our recent and long term form contrasts hideously with the amazing work Tuchel has done in a short space of time at the London club. We are missing Dybala and Morata […]
Juve v Samp
25 September 2021
With results of late showing signs of promise and most of the squad fit and fairly sharp, Juve welcome Roberto D’Aversa’s Sampdoria side to Turin in the hope of finding more elusive and hugely needed points. Samp sit in 13th currently, with one win, two draws and one loss, mirroring our own feckless form. Last […]
Spezia 2-3 Juventus – a classic relegation 6 pointer!
22 September 2021
Despite the dire state of our league position, both before and after, I was encouraged by the performance against AC. For whilst they were missing a few players, they are a team in superb form, with their away record certain confirmation of a settled system and deep imbued hardiness. For 45 minutes we actually looked […]
Juve 1 – 1 AC Milan
19 September 2021
Big test for the side, who should have regained some confidence and perhaps even a semblance of cohesion after the solid 0-3 victory away to Malmo midweek…. We proved for 45 minutes we could maintain a hard pressing, high octane, even exciting brand of football, for we were in close to full control. Affording the […]
Malmo v Juventus (champions league)
14 September 2021
Preview We welcome back all the south american contingent to the squad – other than Arthur – and no doubt also to the first XI, as we head to Sweden to open our CL campaign against Malmo. The season has been appalling thus far. 1 point from 3 games. Glaring individual errors from our Pole […]
Napoli v Juventus match preview
10 September 2021
We certainly are not in the best of shape. Or in any discernible shape whatsoever. Given the first two games have seen regretful results, huge chopping and changing, experimentation, some sparks of life, hugely costly individual errors then Max going full Pirlo aka full retard. The Ronaldo shitstorm refuses to be vanquished, with Cherubini making […]
Juventus v Empoli Match preview
28 August 2021
The latest and final instalment of Ronaldo FC has come and gone. We now can once more become Juventus FC, starting with a home tie against Empoli. ZJ writer, Dave Dwicarta, offered this solid piece to begin moving on into the brave new world… Max assuredly would have spoken with Agnelli of his plans during […]
Udinese v Juventus preview – Dawn of a New Era
21 August 2021
Finally we reach the start of a new season. Beginning second phase Max with a trip to face Udinese this Sunday. It has been a tumultuous time for the club, having been forced to make seismic changes with Paratici chopped alongside Pirlo, and Allegri returning to (hopefully) swiftly right the listing ship we had become […]
