Episode 139: Roma beats Juve at their own game
Juventus used a furious comeback to get a win in the Turin derby earlier in the week but couldn’t replicate things when the Bianconeri made the trip to Rome on Sunday night.
On this week’s episode of The Old Lady Speaks Podcast, we discuss:
Takeaways from the week that was — including that Max Allegri’s Juventus got out-Max Allegri’d by Jose Mourinho and Roma on Sunday, Juventus-Roma was emblematic of why the board of directors got rid of Max Allegri the first time around, a cry from Chuks to do away with zonal marking like what we saw didn’t work against Torino earlier in the week.
Juventus’ comeback against Torino was good.
Juventus’ failed comeback against Roma was not good.
A deeper dive into what went wrong for Juve in the loss to Roma, one that probably killed any lasting Champions League hopes if the 15-point penalty remains in effect.
How games like Sunday’s against Roma just magnify how slim Juventus’ margin for error is and what has to change going forward if this team wants to win any trophies.
One main Twitter questions this week — what’s up with Dusan Vlahovic and how much of it is the player and how much of it is the manager’s system holding him back?
