Final Four: Juventus vs. Real Madrid


Recommended Posts

underdogs Juventus were teased unmercifully about being the team in the Champions League final four that the other three all hoped they got matched up against

my Juve fan buddy was feeling down about it, especially after their lackluster performance against Monaco in the Elite Eight after a dominant performance againt Dortmund in the Round of 16

I was telling him nobody wants to face Juventus in Turin, where Juventus has only lost 4 times since they opened their brand-new stadium in 2011 (three losses in Series A, one in CL to Bayern Munich)

and Juve, with their new coach, switched to more CL-friendly tactics than the CL-unfriendly tactics Conte employed before leaving Juve to become the new coach of the Italian National Team

nobody wants to face the Juve D, which is world-class and the best of the remaining teams

Juve's midfield is loaded and is as good or better than any of the remaining teams

and TEVEZ is a World Class striker. Their biggest flaw is not having that very very good #2 striker (young Morata is promising, Llorente is above average but still pretty meh)

and even without the young and electric Pogba, Juve takes the 1st leg with a 2-1 legendary victory in Turin!

    • Was just explaining this to some dummy named Willy in another thread. I think he was just smoking’ too much cheese.  This has been going on for ages. Trent dilfer got all the ladies and threw just as many TDs as interceptions. This was the more violent era of football. The soft mfrs wanna see the passing TDs but the truth is that ain’t what ultimately wins football games. It’s a STRONG D, and an unstoppable run game, with some passes to keep the defense honest, if a for a TD great. in fact I would venture to say that the two panthers super bowls consisted of the same except cam threw more tds than interceptions and could run like Jamal Lewis and priest Holmes. its a tale as old as time. Something all ball knowers understand.  
    • This team just traded a 2nd round pick for Bradley Chubbs. Edge, Miami Dolphins. 
    • Ngl, as good as I felt about us after winning yesterday, when they showed the top NFC teams on SNF, I realized what a crazy year this is.  The NFC seems uncommonly top heavy.  As of today, we aren’t anywhere near playoff positioning, which at 5-4 seems very, very weird compared to most years.  I know things will shake out further as the season goes on and it likely won’t look the same, but I have the feeling it’s one of those years that you’ll need like 11 wins to get in as a wildcard. seems very like a very pantherish thing to rebound this year and that’s what it would take.
