Higuain is so lethal. His movement and finishing are too good.

0-1 at HT

Really hope Juve wins the CL. Such a perfect team.

by dronte Sun Feb 12, 2017 6:56 pm

The Fat One keeps scoring for fun, but Dybala is still in poor form. We didn't do anything this match but Higuain's two classy moves winning us the game.

That Perugia goal though o.O

egh just as I wrote this a questionable no-call on Dybala inside the area. Guess refs are afraid to call anything now Very Happy

Agreed. Can't believe I've been sleeping on them this season. This win at Cagliari today has opened my eyes.

CL favorites IMO.

by rincon Sun Feb 12, 2017 7:19 pm

You say it jokingly but there is a lot to learn from this game hmm

The team has become unbelievably clinical while going back to being really tight at the back. Even when the players are clearly saving energy and Pjanic is not playing, like today, the team puts 2 in the net in 50 min.

This is a very strong Juve imo. I mean that in comparison to other Juve teams of recent years.

Holy shit prime Ibarbo coming on

One of the top 6-7 FIFA strikers of all time easily.

by rincon Sun Feb 12, 2017 7:22 pm

its amazing how many rejects Cagliari has

by Firenze Sun Feb 12, 2017 7:25 pm

Ibarbo is not a reject. Better than any incarnation of Higuain on FIFA, no contest. I should be locked up for the things I did to people with him back on FIFA 13.

Personal save of the season for Rafael! outstanding to deny Dybala a goal on a second shot on the rebound after hitting the post.

Meh .. honestly .. Borefest ?

by RealGunner Sun Feb 12, 2017 8:08 pm

Hmm, more like the usual than borefest. Doubt anyone expected anything else other than Juve walking Serie A.

Battle for 2-4 is probably the best thing so far. Although I hope Inter manage to sneak in top 3 I don't think it will be possible. Still some way to go so who knows. CL might affect Napoli a bit which might offer Inter a way through.

Most interesting thing in that table is that Juventus have drawn 0 matches. That is quite incredible.

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Sun Feb 12, 2017 8:10 pm

GOAT Allegri always goes for the win IMO.

by Firenze Sun Feb 12, 2017 8:12 pm

Milan after all that hype rofl

calling it now, will finish like 9th

embarrassing club

Inter :bow:

would be first if De Boer was never hired ffs

by Luca Sun Feb 12, 2017 8:15 pm

Inter would've found a way to mess it up, just like last season after January rofl

by Firenze Sun Feb 12, 2017 8:15 pm

Pecara need to stop getting promoted ffs, waste of a spot

sad to see Palermo looking like they're gonna continue to yoyo too

It was not about Juve , it was about the first 10 to have won , while the rest have lost (Lazio - Milan plays tomorrow ) .

I signed it on purpose on table if you notice it. V is victory , P is perse ( = lost )

Basically, so many expected matches but I am going to say this for much time. I don't know if even there is some battle for something honestly , not even for 3rd place imo.

by rincon Sun Feb 12, 2017 8:44 pm

@Robespierre what's your take for Lazio-Milan? I wanna say Lazio will win with how many injuries and bad form Milan has, but its Lazio so I'm not sure.

It had been a while seen we had seen so many quality strikers on great form. Really impossible to call.

I'm thinking that Dzeko will trail off soon. Same for Mertens when Milik and Pavoletti get in the mix. Belotti, Icardi and Higuain to fight it off in the end.

Its good to see that Belotti does it in half the shots as Dzeko, and adds 3 assist too.

by McLewis Mon Feb 13, 2017 11:22 am

I admire that Dzeko knows just how much of a shit peno taker he is. Enough to know he needs to let someone else take them.

Literally the polar opposite #9 of Pablo Osvaldo.

Most shocking thing about this is that Icardi has 8 assists. WTF. When did he learn how to pass?
