    Great match today and hoping you guys win against Lyon. What do you guys think about the expected line-up shown by the media? :

    Szczęsny; Danilo, Bonucci, De Ligt, Alex Sandro; Ramsey, Pjanić, Bentancur; Cuadrado, Ronaldo, Dybala

    No real surprises. Cuadrado has played well in his favored right winger role the last couple of games. Ronaldo is untouchable and Dybala has been the next best player. I presume Sarri is not convinced that Chiello can go 90, hence the Bonucci-De Ligt pairing.

    The only thing that I wonder about is why he would elect to go with Ramsey over one of the two French internationals we have in midfield in a return to a French mid-league club.

    There is no excuse not to come away with at least a point.

    I'm feeling good about today, think the team is starting to click at the right time. We are not anywhere near good enough to be thinking about beating Real, Bayern, or Liverpool, but I think this team could (certainly not a given) get there.

    Fino alla fine forza Juve!

    They had a golden opportunity on the break. Rabiot screws up an easy pass to send Danilo through and clear on goal.

    Lyon hit the crossbar. Poor defending on corner.

    A little playacting by Dybala gets their defender a yellow.

    The midfield is invisible, as is Dybala. Sarriball.
