Juve, where are the goals and where is the good game? Winning is not the same as convincing. Maurizio Sarri's Juve is first in the standings but there isn't a Juventus player who is happy with the team and the promises of the summer (goals and entertainment) you can't even see the shadow. At the end of the last championship, the Juventus club dismissed Massimiliano Allegri after winning five consecutive championships and two Champions League finals, entrusting the leadership to Sarri in the belief that he could combine victories with football entertainment. But after three months the number of those who miss Allegri is growing day by day.
Juve, it's true, are at the top of the standings, albeit with just one point ahead of the never-missed Antonio Conte's Inter enough, but he doesn't enjoy it, he dribbles a lot but concludes little, he scores with a dropper, he wins out of breath even against the provincials and above all it doesn't have a soul.
Wobble the defense despite the very expensive addition of the former Ajax captain, the Dutch Matthijs De Light, stutters and does not cover the midfield which has a star like Pjanic but is also entrusted to two great champions a bit boiled like Khedira and Matuidi, and not a stellar attack finds the way to goal that can field champions such as Cristiano Ronaldo, Dybala and Higuain.
Does Sarri's idea of football have anything to do with it? It is said that it takes time to change the score, but a detail of the very disappointing draw against Lecce makes us think. In a desperate attempt to recapture victory, at a certain point Captain Bonucci makes one of his usual long balls towards the attackers hoping to skip the midfield and displace the Apulian defence. Cheerful but also Conte would have applauded, but not Sarri: they heard all the reproaches from him on TV to Bonucci, who he ordered to produce games and not pitches. Dribble, dribble, something will happen. The only things that don't happen in Sarri's Juve are good play and goals. Was it worth changing Allegri to make his game and results worse? There are many among the Juventus fans who are beginning to wonder.
