Juventus moderately assembling an average squad?

lol this title

We need a brand new midfield

and you'll get one



whew

saw Khedira-Pjanic-Asamoah
in 2016 dated post.

and still being used last week. lol

GK: Szczesny, Perin, Pinsoglio

DEF: Bonucci, Chiellini, Benatia, Barzagli, Rugani

FB: Cancelo, De Sciglio, Alex Sandro, Spinazzola

MID: Pjanic, Matuidi, Can, Khedira, Marchisio, Bentancur

ATT: Ronaldo, Dybala, Costa, Bernardeschi, Mandzukic, Cuadrado, Kean

woof, stacked af

you have two world class players in that squad

and a bunch of B+ players, don't get me wrong, some good B+ players

that midfield is utter shit though

Crockisio? Bentapleb? Can? Mehtuidi? Khedira?

got a feeling you're in for a rude awakening this season (at least in the CL)

that midfield is 1 injury away from big problems

Can and Khedira in one midfield is a terrible, cruel joke

You've been saying this since the past 3 years though

btw

Allegri was pleased with Bernardeschi in pre-season and is considering giving him a new role in the midfield. More of an Isco-type role as opposed to playing strictly on the wings. (Tuttosport) pic.twitter.com/gmrk9LXpIw

ufff, cant wait

I used to play him there on Fifa a couple of seasons ago, Allegri learning from the best tbh

@S you almost were buddy, if Spurs weren't habitual bottlers

And what would that rude awakening be ?

I dont think we'll go out earlier than the quarters with this squad tbh(which would be a huge disappointment)

We've spent a lot of money and retained all our key players unlike previous seasons. Dont see why i shouldnt be optimistic about our CL chances.

Juventus midfield looks plain average. Their defence also doesn't look that optimistic against pace and counter. How ever the attack department looks extremely complete and they will have to drag juventus to CL.

Juventus midfield looks average? What are you smoking?

well compared to Serie A competitors it's world class of course, except maybe Inter who have the most talented team

but in general it's really, really average

Looking forward to having this average team outperform the teams of every poster that replied to @S

That's hilarious. Matuidi, Pjanic and Can alone could walk and play first string in any EPL or Bundesliga club. Maybe Madrid and Barca would have to do some turnover.

I'm just kidding to wind up @Breva really.

In reality, you have in Khedira and Matuidi two experienced World Cup winning war horses in the engine room, Pjanic who is equally creative and combative, elder statesman Marchisio, and Can, who at his very best is like the next Ballack age 35.

But really, as you also have the arguably best defensive unit in world football, and a forward line with new Messi Dybala, new Ronaldinho Douglas Costa, Italian SchürrleBale Bernadeschi, elite competitor DMandzukic as well as the actual Cristiano Ronaldo, you should be regarded as proper favourites to win the CL IMO.

You should be very disappointed not to win it this season.

The sam Emre Can who was not even first choice at Liverpool over the staggering competition of Henderson and Milner would walk into City and Bayern's team? lol.

Pjanic is great and Matuidi is past it (which is why he was made redundant at PSG), the midfield is markedly average and even Roma and Man Utd have a better midfield let alone the likes of Bayern and City.

Matuidi's days as a midfielder have long ended.
These days he's only useful as a hard-working left winger who ruins 99% of attacks on his side.
