    I know these games don’t mean much but Juve have impressed me in these two matches. I really think they’re made the right decision to stick with Tudor

    Tudor is ok for now but let’s see how long he lasts this upcoming Serie A season.

    Who were the other options? Zidane? Another figurine that they’ll overpay for and not provide better results.

    Comfortable win and a better second half performance until we switched off in the last couple of minutes. Can’t believe Amrabat at 38 years old had more pace than Kelly. He should never wear the shirt again after this tournament. Substitutions were good by Tudor. We still need to improve on defending and stop giving the ball away cheaply in our own half. Man City will be a much bigger test on Thursday. Yildiz was our best player

    Amrabat is 28*

    If you guys can recoup Bremer, I say your 2-3 signings away from competing for the top of Serie A

    2 dominate performances with only a couple of brain farts to mar them.

    I love the faster, more direct style we are using. Sadly, if Dusan would negotiate, he could thrive in this sort of system.

    The more I watch this group, the more I think they have a chance to really make some noise in this comp. No need to fear Citeh IMHO, but I am not sure that the 3 man backline we used today will cut it against Pep.

    Juventus will probably wait until Giorgio Chiellini gets his coaching badges at Coverciano and they will give him the job.

    Of course.

    If Tudor does well, it is his job.

    I was at the game. Yildiz looked phenomenal; that said, we have to take account of the opposition. He, Thuram, and Cambiaso are decent building blocks. It will be interesting to see the team with Bremer and Gatti back in the starting eleven. Those two with Kalulu (who was excellent yesterday) and Di Gregorio are more than serviceable.

    We just need more in attack. I was very unimpressed with Muani and we know what Vlahovic is at this point. Koopmeiners was very unimpressive to me.

    I think if we can add an actual #9 and someone else that can help in attack, we can be pretty competitive next season.

    I was at the game as well, the Moroccans put on a great atmosphere. Koop and McKennie were duds for me yesterday. I thought Kolo Muani did well in getting players to follow him, opening up other players.

    Kolo is a keeper, hope we sell Dusan, but i can see him not budge and just run his contract out ;(

    I just hope we can avoid Real Madrid next round and make some money. Dont care going past QF or semis honestly. But if we Somehow win this tournament, it would be a good boost to our confidence going into the season.

    Emiliano Viviano does hold back after Weston McKennie claimed Italian food had "no variety"

    Viviano is an idiot. There is some excellent food in the US. Italians are just butthurt someone criticized their cuisine.

    Tied 1-1 in the first 11 minutes. Both teams looks like they decided to put out their B squads. Juve’s lineup would be lucky to win in Serie A.

    McKennie probably thinks theres no variety in italian food cause he puts ranch all over it and it all tastes like trash.

    Man City showing the difference in quality. We look aweful defensively and there timing of there passing and movement on and off the ball is superior to ours. I can see us conceding another couple of goals in the second half
