    Holy shit, Cambiaso is sooooo ********ing bad. Miretti is one of the most overrated players on Juve, just because he's Italian. He sucks ass. Koop, another useless piece of shit.

    It's soooo hard to even care about this team anymore.

    I hope all those people clamoring for Miretti are happy, he's been utter TRASH all half. He should never play for Juve again. Juve should have kept Fagioli and sold Miretti.

    Cambiaso should have been sold when City wanted him.

    Add David to the list, he's been awful since he joined. Just missed an absolute sitter.

    Half-time and the whistles fill the stadium, what a ********ing terrible team. If Spalletti doesn't make changes at half-time then the game is over. Miretti, Cambiaso and David all need to be subbed off immediately.

    Agree. All having a bad game. I do think Koop has been our best player though although he did miss a sitter as did David. What we all have to remember is our club isn’t the same anymore. We are years away from being the Juventus of old and it’s difficult to accept but that is the reality of it and it’s frustrating and angers me, but that is it and some of our expectations are to high for the players and lack of quality we have. They have created chances with 3/4 passes and hit the woodwork twice. It takes us 15/20 passes to get into there penalty area. Again I see 4 of there players inside our box waiting for set pieces while we have no defenders inside our between them. We need to go man for man instead of zonal marking. It doesn’t work. I think kostic for cambiaso and Thuram for Miretti at half time.

    I would have done...

    Chico for Cambiaso
    Openda for David
    Thuram for Miretti

    instead, he takes of Zhegrova. Let's see if Spalletti will admit he's still making mistakes.

    And Yildiz misses a great chance.

    Openda has to be one of the worst purchases in recent time. Just an absolutely pointless transfer for an absolutely useless player.

    Kalulu has been solid. So much better when he plays his position instead of on the ********ing wing like that idiot Tudor had him playing.

    Its good that Juve won this game because the last two group matches will be tough against Benfica and Monaco. One more win against either of them would put them through. Would obviously prefer two wins but fat chance that happens.

    How about Concacaf getting two goals for Juve?

    Better in the second half when we played more direct. I agree with the comments about the substitutes. We lost balance to the team and shape with some of his moves. Think spalletti changes the formation to much to soon at times which can be confusing to the team. Yildiz was our best player tonight and I thought Koop and Kalulu had good performances. Pleased for David to get a goal, as he hasn’t had much service in the games he’s played. Average performance overall but a good win in the end. Sunday will be tough against Bologna.

    Moved up to 17th.

    Mou at Benfica will not be easy next time out.

    We get 1 more win and we should be in, but both Benfica and ASM are within striking distance so no walkovers coming.

    This team barely beat a no name team…
    We have too many holes. Our service in the box has been garbage. It’s hard to be excited.

    UEFA Champions League: McKennie scores in Juventus win

    by Mike WoitallaDecember 10, 2025

    Weston McKennie opened the scoring in Juventus’ 2-0 win over Cyprus’ Pafos on Matchday 6.
    The American had also scored when Juventus picked up its first win, 3-2 over Bodø/Glimt, on Matchday 5.
    . Watch (): Weston McKennie’s stunning finish



    [​IMG]
    Canadian Jonathan David scored the second for Juventus, which is now in 17th-place — with only goal difference separating it from the playoff-seed zone
    Bayer Leverkusen 2-2 Newcastle. Malik Tillman‘s Bayer Leverkusen dropped from 17th to 20th place after a 2-2 tie with Newcastle. Tillman’s standout moment was an incisive pass that sent Patrik Schick on goal before the striker was fouled — first whistled as a penalty, then downgraded to a free kick after VAR review.

    From the Press

    Italy:
    Gazzetta dello Sport ratings (1=low; 10=high).
    7 Weston McKennie (Juventus), 90 minutes, 1 goal (2-0 vs. Pafos)

    • Gazzetta dello Sport “Part wingback, part outside — as usual. And while drifting from spot to spot, he still finds the moment to fire a crucial shot in under the crossbar.”
