From another perspective, if he jumps instead of ducking, he stops that. pic.twitter.com/jQsl0gPuuK— Rocco (@Rocco19527293) April 21, 2021
Kulusevski in, Cuadrado off Ramsey in, McKennie off Rabiot in, Bentancur off Cuadrado had a really good game. Disappointing with McKennie tonight, the less said about Bentancur the better.
Ronaldo got a yellow for being a petulant child. 3-1 is how it ends. Juve back into 3rd, 1 point behind Milan.
Yes thought Mckennie offered very little tonight. If Ronaldo put as much effort in playing football as he does sulking he could be a half decent footballer. On the positive Sandro looked more like his old self and had a good game as did Danilo. Cuadrado and Dybala got the team moving the ball faster as they set the tempo for the start of the second half. Good to see Dybala getting fitter and better each game he plays. Makes Ronaldo look very ordinary. Now it’s time to get ready to settle a score with Fiorantina. Forza Juve !
that's not juve DNA. that's why ive been banging this drum for a while. We need more of a spine of italian players in the starting lineup. Italiani che non mollare mai! hows a younger like Kulusevski or whoever going to develop properly (not only technique but their intangibles) if thats the example being set by the "star player".
Ramsey actually helped move the ball a lot more effectively today when he got on. We are so slow in our buildup and today nearly everyone was very sloppy with the passing. One of McKennie's worst days in bianconero. Dybala was much improved over his last game. Hopefully as he gets fit he becomes more of a threat again.
Here are the run-ins for each of the CL contenders. Napoli appear to have the easiest. Milan the hardest and we are right behind them. At least we have both Milan clubs at home. Milan run-in Lazio (A), Benevento (H), Juventus (A), Torino (A), Cagliari (H), Atalanta (A) Atalanta run-in Bologna (H), Sassuolo (A), Parma (A), Benevento (H), Genoa (A), Milan (H) Juventus run-in Fiorentina (A), Udinese (A), Milan (H), Sassuolo (A), Inter (H), Bologna (A) Napoli run-in Torino (A), Cagliari (H), Spezia (A), Udinese (H), Fiorentina (A), Verona (H) Lazio run-in Milan (H), Genoa (H), Fiorentina (A), Parma (H), Roma (A), Sassuolo (A), Torino (H, yet to be scheduled)
Juve and Milan need to watch out with their remaining schedules. Napoli have a pretty easy ride until the end to possibly grab the 4th spot.
Agreed, def a game for Wes to learn from and not repeat. Great point about Dybala. It reminds me of something that University of North Carolina basketball coach Roy Williams said during an interview about Michael Jordan. Basically saying that most players can't turn it on and off, except Michael and he never turned it off! Dybala has the talent, technique, and ability. I don't think he can turn it on when he wants and sure as s**t doesn't always have it on like Messi or Ronaldo.

The gods smile upon us, deflection off of Bonucci sees the ball hit the post and into Tek’s arms. Last 5 or so minutes Juve fell asleep.
VAR reviews a call and penalty to Fiorentina, Rabiot with a handball in the box. No reason to stick his arm up like that, it went off the upper part of his arm. Fiorentina 1-0
Half-time. Juve started well, then after 15 minutes they disappeared. Dybala and Ronaldo have been invisible all game, the midfield has been awful. If Juve loses this the CL is in serious jeopardy.
Piss poor first half. Nothing good to say about it other than physically weak, slow, clueless, and extremely poor passing. Fiorentina 1 up and haven’t even had to work hard
Morata 1-1 Within seconds of coming on he scores. He did more in 20 seconds than Dybala did all game.
