Hell yeah, the Bulgarian crew continues with opening the game threads...

If we want to win this game we should be play our B-side in the Europa League. Not to mention constantly kick Dybala and press their defenders for 90 minutes. I'm not optimistic, but it's not impossible. They've got their weaknesses. Their midfield is not very athletic. They also tend to struggle if you can pressure them when they try to play the ball out from the back.

I predict an Icardi goal from a Chiellini backpass

If we play like we did last season when we beat them 3-0, then we stand a chance to get something out of this.. that is the only way. Constant pressure and cover every part of the pitch.

This means we need hard working players, perfect time to start Brozovic.

I would like to point out that we have not won a single match when Bulgarians open match threads, and are undefeated when Bulgarians do not open match thread.

6-0 Juventus win.

lets hope Miranda and Murillo can handle the fat bastard

 

[Armes]

Pretty sure Miranda can handle both Higuain and Dybala, but most likely he'll get to man mark Dybala because he's faster than Higuain. I don't like that Shaun is suggesting (read it in a different thread too) to basically break Dybala's legs, but going hard on him will definetely help. To be honest, compare at will on and off paper, 1vs1, coach vs coach, doesn't matter much here. This is the motherfucking Derby D'Italia, and we play at home! I'm expecting a win!

I really fuckin hope Ansaldi is fit for this one. D'Ambrosio and Santon are ticking bombs. Easily our weakest positions by far.

I don't really know much about Ansaldi and my intuition is that he's average but regardless of that I wouldn't want him to start his first game for us against the gods of this miserable league. I also feel like since it's a home game he'll - surprisingly - have more pressure on him, just imagine the sighs of the crowd once he makes a mistake or something. I'm pretty sure he's never played under that setting before, playing in a highly rated match between two big rivals.

It is hyperbole on my behalf (I like Dybala and don't want to see him injured). I basically mean that it's important to be very physical with him as that tactic has been successfully used on him in other games. As for who will mark who, I think you'll find that Dybala will continue to basically play as an AM if their game against Sassuolo is anything to go by. Khedira is actually further forward a lot of the time.

Also, you're right. It's a one off match. Anything can happen

I never noticed that the game with these bastards are so soon.

Truly hope we don't get humiliated.

We've got some beers from Sheva game in the EL first. Someone needs to make a thread for that one

If you need pressing across the field my thought is Icardi wouldn't be a good fit

True, but Juventus also tend to pass the ball back to Buffon repeatedly. I've never seen a striker intercept back-passes to the goalkeeper more often than Mauro does.
