he looked pretty good in the 2nd half. Game was boring overall but, not a lot of negatives can be pointed at Wes.
Only saw about half of the game (beginning and end), but seemed like an average performance in the context of the team, to me. I'm sure they'd have liked better, but that was positive.
That whole injury sequence by Bernarduschi looked sketchy as heck. While he was off the pitch Milan scores. Bernarduschi then decides he can’t go back on. Color me skeptical but I hope for his sake there is an actual injury because it would have been embarrassing otherwise.
The defender “touched” his upper arm and that is being generous to Bernarduschi. He stopped his dribble into the box and with a scream went down and proceeded to roll onto his grievously maimed arm because that is what humans are programmed to do when in excruciating pain. It seemed like the magic spray was doing the trick for recovery but then Inter scored while he was off so probably better to stay with the grievous injury schtick. My cynicism may be unjustified but it was hard to see anything there.
I thought McKennie was fine until the goal and system change. Since then, he hasn't seen the ball much at all.
I think McKennie has started the 2nd half very well. Solid passing, movement, and defending. Teammates have trouble finding him when he's in space, however.
Juventus is starting to put Inter under a ton of pressure. McKennie is involved, but the clear turning point were the subs of Dybala and Chiesa.
Wes subbed out at 83’. Juve ties up at 89’ with a PK. It was not much of a foul to call for a PK, imo.
It is the part I hate the most about soccer these days. So disappointing. Their pain threshold is comically low.
I’m curious about this one as it was quite the show for seemingly next to nothing and then subbed off. Maybe his heavily tatted arm is infected.
Shocker. No injury. If I was a teammate, I would be furious. Juve went down 1-0 while he was off the pitch and a man down and then had to burn an early sub for what was probably only his embarrassment. https://football-italia.net/juventus-no-injuries-for-bernardeschi-or-kean/
The Italy international was severely bruised and went off with a ‘slight distortion of the right shoulder’ in the first half of the 1-1 draw with the Nerazzurri, but the winger has avoided any serious damage.
He keeps getting criticized, but keeps getting the starts - assuming a 4-4-2, the midfield is Rabiot, Locatelli, Chiesa, and Wes. Possible it's more of a 4-3-3 with this personnel, though.
Bonucci golden opportunity on first minute FK delivery from Chiesa, he puts it wide, but may have been offside anywar. Wes does look to be playing in the middle. Morata just had a chance to play one across to Ses but it didn't work. Looks like a 4-4-2 with Wes as RCM. McKennie steals and one-touch pass to Morata, but he can't create space to shoot before being shut down. Still, three half chances in three minutes for Juventus.
