    1. Wes has a goal or forces an own goal but they still lost. Idiot goalkeeper and defender messed up.
    2. sub Weah did a cross which resulted a goal.
    3. Luca has an assist but they gave up 3 goals in last 8 minutes to Barca.

    Good to see de la Torre has graduated to central midfield starter. And his ground duels won numbers have picked up.

    Sassuolo-Juve, le pagelle di CM: Szczesny e Gatti ...



    McKennie 5,5:
    non impone il solito ritmo, inevitabile la staffetta all'ora di gioco nonostante ci metta lo zampino sul gol del momentaneo 1-1

    (15' st Weah 6: prova a far cambiare marcia, in ripartenza è un'arma preziosa)

    McKennie 5.5: does not put forth his usual pace, the relay at game time is inevitable despite having a hand on the first goal that made the scoreline 1-1

    (15' st Weah 6: he tried to change gears, on the restart and seems to be a precious weapon)


    Sassuolo-Juventus 4-2, le pagelle
    Sassuolo-Juventus 4-2, le pagelle ; 7/24. MATHEUS HENRIQUE: voto 7 (MVP) ; 8/24. BERARDI: voto 7 ; 9/24. BAJRAMI: voto 5,5.


    • MCKENNIE: voto 6.5
    • dal 60' WEAH voto 5,5

    It’s not ideal but Otasowie had a ton of issues that were reported, while we’ve never heard anything like this from Tillman.

    Just last year Marcus Rashford was benched for Man U after oversleeping and went on a tear after.

    The concern would be if this sort of stuff continues to happen, but I don’t think we have any indication it will.

    The good news is that stamina improves into the 30s. The bad news is that Musah's starting point in that category is low. The other good news is that he pushed through the full 90 regardless.

    It started as another horror of a weekend and still had some low points. But it picked up.

    People forget how young Dest is as a fullback.

    Two years at PSV and then try a top league again as a more mature and seasoned player is very realistic.

    I would like to see Bosz use this to light a fire under Tillman. He's a little too laid back. And um sleepy.

    Three Seria A right wing backs (McKennie, Weah, Musah)are all behind Dest.

    These EPL promoted sides are bad.........I dont recall a worse 3 going up in quite some time. Maybe the West Brom, Norwich, Crystal Palace of the Iain Dowie era.

    Sheffield United completely dismantled by Newcastle. Embarrassingly so. Trusty isnt playing thank goodness, but after a 7-0 (and counting) loss, Sheffield United are going to be forced to make changes. Hopefully Trusty is one of the obvious first changes

    Luton seemed from the start like they were going to finish last and go straight back down, but I thought Burnley would be ok, mostly because I like Kompany as a coach but so far they haven't done much.

    On the other hand teams like Everton and Wolves aren't really doing anything either. At the start of the season Everton, Wolves, and Luton were my picks to go back down but it feels like Sheffield is heading that way too and Burnley isn't too far behind.

    With Sheffield what's disappointing is they aren't playing well and Trusty isn't really getting minutes either.

    Some fans always complain about the bottom teams in the EPL, but this time it's fair. It was obvious from their lack of resources and pedigree, that group would suck. The teams they replaced are superior in those regards. In fact, that may have an all-time great relegation-battling group. The league, at least toward the bottom, is far less competitive now.

    From our standpoint, that's probably good, because it gives clubs we are more invested in, like Forest & Fulham, who could have otherwise been drawn into a fight, plenty of leeway. They should finish more toward the mid-table group as a result. And maybe it gives Bournemouth and Adams, who hasn't had a chance to impact their outcomes early, a reprieve. Though I think they're still in serious danger.

    Really odd thing to say given that Musah was one of our top runners at WC2022 just behind Adams and actually covered the most distance at speed > 25kph. Jedi did have the most high intensity sprints.

    Scuffed did an interview with someone who does this kind of mediation and it was pretty insightful.

    Someone who knows what he is talking about shares his expertise in an interview. I guess populism has wormed its way into these boards as well. Populism is always popular until the populists get their chance to run things.

    Populism doesn’t enter into it. Of course a mediator will recommend mediation, just like a lawyer will recommend a lawyer.

    I recommend doing due diligence and reviewing available information before posting but I guess I only recommend that because I like doing it.
