Juventus’ recent poor form has drawn attention for all the reasons.
The Bianconeri first raised the hopes of their fans with promising performances that pointed to a possible league victory.
However, as time went on, it became apparent that their previous good fortune was only a brief period of superior performance, and Juventus are no longer in the top two positions in Serie A.
This slowdown is precisely what their coach, Max Allegri, is looking for, who has been the subject of much criticism, despite having received limited reinforcements this season.
Adding to the pressure, Cristiano Giuntoli joined the club this summer as the club’s new sporting director. However, his tenure was characterized more by the departure of players than significant additions to the team.
Journalist Tony Damascelli saw what was happening at the club and said, quoted by Tuttojuve:
“Juventus today, that’s all, with Giuntoli stuck in the middle because he can’t interfere because first they’re short of cash and then they’re waiting for the assets to show up, but the assets at the moment have big considerations between a drone and anything else and it’s a scenario that reiterates what I’ve been advocating for years. The history of Juventus, like that of the reference factory, is over. It is a vital team that gets results, that will win from time to time, that will lose from time to time, but it no longer has the identity and characteristics that we have known for a century.
Juve FC says
The last few months have been difficult for us as a club and we can get all the complaints we have.
But even with a lot of new signings, we have enough quality players to do more than our current form is producing.
System chaos, Kostic is part defender so he can’t use his speed that Dusan needs, the little boy (Miretti) at the beginning and helpless in the 70th minute Kean arrives OMG. And Yildiz arrives min 88, great.
