February’s Monthly Juventus Thoughts: From cooking to cooked

February was such a dramatic fall from grace for Juventus — and, as a result, we have so much to discuss — that I’m going to skip my usual intro and get straight to business. Andiamo. Badly Burnt The only ray of sunshine in this miserable February came from the 4-1 victory over Parma on […]

Dusan Vlahovic returns to training, aiming for return to Juve squad against Pisa

There was a familiar back on the training fields at Continassa on Wednesday.

After UCL elimination, where do Juventus go from here?

Once upon a time, in a galaxy far, far away, you needed to be the best of the best to eliminate Juventus from the UEFA Champions League. Juve lost to the eventual winners Bayern Munich and Barcelona in 2013 and 2015, respectively, before falling to Pep Guardiola’s all-encompassing Bayern side in 2016, followed by back-to-back […]

Last-gasp goal vs. Roma keeps Juventus in Champions League race

Sunday night’s game between Juventus and Roma was a six-pointer in every sense of the word.

Juventus 3 – Roma 3: Initial reaction and random observations

Because I am an upstanding citizen, I will be honest with all of your for a minute: I was ready to start the process of writing Juventus’ obituary.

Le Pagelle: Juventus vs. Galatasaray

The last three Februarys for Juventus have not been very good

Over the last three Februarys, we have seen three different Juventus managers see growing positive feelings about their squad suddenly go up in smoke.
