Complacency dooms Juventus in shock loss to Cagliari
As Juventus frantically pushed for an equalizer for the last 25 minutes of Saturday’s stunning 1-0 loss against Cagliari, one question repeatedly came to mind: where was this urgency for the first 65 minutes? The rest of the match had been a completely one-sided affair. Juve finished the match with 78.1 percent of possession. Cagliari […]
Juventus 0 – Cagliari 1: Initial reaction and random observations
Giorgio Chiellini has become the official Juventus management figure who talks with the Sky Italia or DAZN before every fixture. And before kickoff on Saturday night in Sardinia, Chiellini had a warning for Luciano Spalletti’s squad. It was a simple one … “Tonight is one of those classic fixtures that can be a trap,” Chiellini […]

Reports: Juventus in talks with Crystal Palace to sign striker Jean-Philippe Mateta
We’ve heard plenty about Juventus’ interest in bringing Federico Chiesa back to Turin during the winter transfer window. However, it looks as though Juve are doing some more shopping in the Premier League — and it also involves somebody who would be added to the attacking line. According to multiple reports from the Italian press […]
Round 21: Juventus vs. Cagliari match preview

How Spalletti transformed Juventus’ defensive fortunes
It has been just four months since Juventus kicked off September by conceding seven goals over the span of two games against Inter Milan and Borussia Dortmund, followed by back-to-back 1-1 draws with Hellas Verona and Atalanta and a 2-2 stalemate at Villarreal. Juve then played to a scoreless draw with AC Milan and lost […]

Report: Federico Chiesa willing to take pay cut to make Juventus return happen
If it isn’t already abundantly clear, Juventus want to bring Federico Chiesa back to Turin this month after he’s spent the past year and a half mostly sitting on the Liverpool bench. The catch, as is usually the case with Juve when trying to make in-season moves during the winter transfer window, is to try […]
Reports: Juventus open talks over potential summer move for Marcos Senesi
While many of us are focused on what Juventus’ front office could potentially do to upgrade the 2025-26 roster during the winter transfer window, it appears as though the club is exploring something for the summertime as well. But also getting some discussions done in the present day, too. According to multiple from the Italian […]

Reports: Juventus pushing to sign Celta Vigo fullback Oscar Mingueza
We have noted rather frequently over the last few weeks that Juventus really only have one true option as a fullback on the right. And it just so happens that said option, Pierre Kalulu, has played every single minute of every single game so far this season — something that is surely testing every bit […]
Reports: Juventus set to re-open contract talks with Weston McKennie
Since Luciano Spalletti took over as manager at Juventus, Weston McKennie has been one of the Bianconeri’s best players. That’s on top of being a very good player under previous managers no matter how much he’s been bounced in and out of the squad’s present and future plans. Last we heard, the talks to extend […]

The Old Lady Speaks Podcast, Episode 320: Luciano Spalletti is starting to cook at Juventus
So how’s your mood after seeing Juventus record their most lopsided win in years? For those of us who do a Juve-centric podcast like ourselves, things were pretty, pretty good after Monday night’s 5-0 win over Cremonese. That is even while we fully hedged and admitted that this Cremonese side is not in very good […]
Le Pagelle: Juventus vs. Cremonese
There isn’t much to say about Juventus’ 5-0 win over Cremonese on Monday than what’s already been said. The Old Lady stepped onto the field and promptly opened a can of whoop-ass, leaving the visitors wondering what hit them. Even the VAR luck went their way when Cremonese were denied a penalty initially given for […]
Juventus crush Cremonese to start second half of Serie A season
“How long has it been?” That’s the question I started asking myself as the time ticked away in the latter stages of Juventus’ lopsided 5-0 victory over Cremonese on Monday night. How long has it been since the Bianconeri had laid an epic beating like this on another team in Serie A? Juve had had […]
Juventus 5 – Cremonese 0: Initial reaction and random observations
If the message from Luciano Spalletti before kickoff was to not make things as tricky against Cremonese on Monday night as they were back on the first day of November, it’s safe to say his Juventus squad took it to heart. In a major kind of way, too. Juventus didn’t just pick up three points […]

Round 20: Juventus vs. Cremonese match preview
Considering the change Serie A made a couple of years ago when it comes to the ritorno no longer mirroring the andata, this is not a surprise to anybody anymore. But when the second half of the season officially arrives and the first opponent up is a club you played all of two months ago, […]
Sergio’s Grab Bag: Don’t think twice, it’s all right
Seven out of nine ain’t bad. You usually take seven out of nine points — this is good. Keep telling yourself that while we try to forget one of the most frustrating matches we have seen recently that kept Juventus from getting a perfect nine out of nine in an awful draw against relegation battler […]
Analyzing Juventus’ impending free agents
It’s 2026, and that can only mean one thing: any player with less than six months remaining on his deal is free to sign a pre-contract with a foreign club. As far as Juventus are concerned, there are quite a few players who are at risk of departing Turin on a free transfer this summer. […]
Report: Juventus still weighing up offer to Liverpool for Federico Chiesa
We are now a full week into 2026 and the January transfer window. It is becoming even the more obvious that there is very much smoke when it comes to the growing fire of rumors that involve Juventus trying to bring back Federico Chiesa all of 18 months after they sold him to Liverpool. According […]
Reports: Juventus reach contract termination agreement with Igor Tudor
Understandably, it’s been a little while since we’ve much of anything about Igor Tudor following Juventus parting ways with the Croatian manager back in late October. It is usually that way — and especially so when you are dismissed early in a season in a league in which managers can’t just jump right back in […]
Le Pagelle: Juventus vs. Sassuolo
A lot can change in three days. Take Jonathan David, for example. Pilloried after his ugly penalty miss over the weekend as Juventus spurned chance after chance and dropped points to a Lecce side they had thoroughly outplayed, on Tuesday he showed everyone his strength of character by stepping up and playing his best game […]
Juventus dominate properly this time, see off Sassuolo
All of three days ago, Juventus dominated their opponent, but didn’t use that dominance properly and ended up dropping points when they couldn’t convert that dominance to goals. For a while, Tuesday night’s game against Sassuolo looked like it would be similar. Juve had at least managed to take score first after Pierre Kalulu’s cross […]
