Caldirola is a cocksucker. That’s match-fixing type of blunder. But when it comes to playing against Inter he turns into a world class.

Juve are clear favorites with a reduced fixture list. Even if our squad is better on paper, the fact they have a full week to prepare Allegri terrorist football shouldn’t be understated. They still have a squad full of expensive transfers and a few difference makers to make up for their lack of ambition.

Only Juventus could be a favourite for the league because they are benefitting from the crimes they committed.

Dead set serial criminals.

Monza did pretty well to put gobbi under stress in entire match but sadly they were too inept in the final third.

However that defending in the second goal was comical, especially during that critical pariod of ending.

I don't think gobbi can survive this. Their defence looks solid in overall, also as a team they are very compact but mistakes will happen and their ability of creating chances or being competitive offensively is lacking big time. They might go far, but this isn't how you win Scudetto, at least not in a long term.

Milan wasn't impressive to me when they won Scudetto before a couple of years, but they had players like Leao whom could pull miracles and win matches by their own, while gobbi doesn't have that. Last night they escaped by a strand of hair, but you can't rely on it every time.

Like I said earlier, if we don't neglect matches and we keep on going like we have done so far, Scudetto will be very likely to be won.

If they continue to play like against Monza I just dont see them winning in the end. Inter and beelan need big fuck ups to let them win like this.

Juve rejecting to play in Europe should have given them a fine, both by Uefa and Serie A... 2 years suspension from all EU competitions and at 10pt Serie A deduction.... What a complete joke this is, just decide not to play, cause you don't want to be tired. Play with your primavera, but you should have played.

We will see, it can't always work, yesterday they were really lucky but one day their luck could end. We will also have a reduced fixture list once we are out of the CL, there are not that much games left. 1 group game, then knock out stage, maybe 2 or 4 games. And another positive thing is that almost all dificult top games will be played at home in the second leg of the season (against Atalanta, Juve, Napoli , Lazio) Let's hope that we will keep going like this and avoid our usually "InterBells" moment.

Say whatever you want about his style but Allegri fighting for Scudetto with this Juve squad is impressive.
I dont see anything impressive here. Only thing I see is massive lack of quality in Seria A.

Their roster is not as pathetic as people make it out to be. They just lack depth but they have the capacity to throw Italian kids who can hold their ground like no other team.

They should have been punished from UEFA of course and Italy. It's a joke they're competing in the league but that's at least a 30 year old joke so we don't think much of it.

Their starting line-up reminds me of our banter era years. There's still a couple of quality players, but the group is mediocre af. In fact, even these quality players are lacking consistency in a long term, whether it is poor form, injuries or absences.

Allegri is doing the impossible to keep them up with the rest of rivals in Scudetto challenge.

I mean, if you exclude Sczhescny, Bremer, and also Chiesa, the rest are either not good enough, unproven or lack consistency.

That's a nice point and we can contrast it to our starts under Spalletti and Mancini. It was not sustained over the course of the season of course.
Then you have Milan under Pioli who managed to sustain it more recently, as a result of a shift in power during these years as opposed to gobbo dominance on and off the pitch back then. So it's possible they can sustain this.

It would feel so fuckin good to annihilate this poisonous Juventus team at the Meazza in a couple of months. Just fuckin "see ya later, don't bother checking out" vibe.

I need a big win against them sometime soon. We got several vs Milan in the last years but we barely managed to beat Juventus whenever we did. Even the big score ones in the last 20 years weren't complete beatings apart from the scoreline (two 3-1 wins away and we lost the PKs in the coppa tie 3-0 game)


Any time we deserved to batter them, the game ended in a draw or we even managed to lose by omeway...
Milan on the other hand felt lucky to only concede 4 or 5 each time we battered them!

Did they reject to play by themselves ? I thought uefa banned them and this ban actually came in handy since they were qualified to Conference League.

I'd take Milan battering us 5-0 for 5 five games in a row to get a 5-0 battering out of Juventus. Scum club.

I like Frosione. They are not pushovers either. 5:0? In their wildest dreams. Milan would be lucky to win it at all.
