To slow in transition. Benfica go from box to box with speed and one touch football, we get over the halfway line and then turn back because players are not getting up quickly enough. This allows them to get 10 back behind the ball and then we do that sideways passing for 5 minutes until someone decides to make a run off the ball. It’s why we struggle to create chances. No speed no aggression and not enough movement. On the whole I think 0-0 at halftime is a fair reflection on the game so far.
Juve losing the ball over and over again in dangerous positions, if they keep it up Benfica will punish them
Good result and attacked with more gusto in the second half. I think the penalty was harsh. If anything Bremer should have been the one rolling around in agony for kicking the players studs on the bottom of his boot. The goals were well worked. David’s movement off the ball for the first one created space for Thuram to get his shot off and then David with the assist for Wes goal. Thought David,Yildiz,Thuram had great games. Kelly had an excellent game tonight. Won everything in the air and tidied up at the back with not much getting past him . Locatelli was superb. Got some important blocks in to stop them getting shot’s on goal and worked his socks off. 6 pointer at the weekend. With Milan playing Roma we could make ground up if we can beat Napoli. Forza Juve
What is up with Cambiasso? His run of form for over a month has been pretty poor. Miretti was terrible today also. Loca was terrific. Weston, what can you say? They need to renew him period.
Must win game again. Depending on other results Juve could potentially be in the top 8 which would be amazing. Highly unlikely, but still something that can absolutely happen.
Scrappy first half. Think we are just doing enough at the moment. We have qualified so maybe that’s why we are looking a bit off it. Also the changes probably haven’t helped. Openda,cabal and Chico it’s not really happening for them. Not to fussed if we don’t get a result tonight. Think our league campaign is more important
Spals made too many changes. There is no connection amongst this group of players. We should let Perin go. He is not helping at the moment and he wants to leave. But it it too late in the mercado for that. I hope he makes some changes cause this is not working.
