KonohasOrangeFlash 2,607 Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Yeah you do for the most part, not in the CF spot though.True. We have Lukaku I guess. Plus the likely possibility of buying a Striker in January. We could buy a midfielder as well but this is all in the future and hypothetical. We'll only face each other twice so it comes down to who has the best starting 11 and who plays the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kezza 1,965 Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Not too worried about this game, pretty confident that both teams will go thought to the final 16 either way. Will be a goodie though. Can't wait !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

petr.breu 1,618 Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 I liked them, when Pavel Nedvěd was in their team, but now I really hate them, so I hope we'll destroy this unfair club... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KonohasOrangeFlash 2,607 Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Wow, just looking at the difference in the lead up to the game on Chelsea and Juventus forums. You could have sworn we are a relegation club not the Champions of Europe. Small club mentality is etched into some of your minds unfortunately. Juve fans are talking about trashing us and here we are in fear, talking about how it will be difficult and must show them respect. lol some of you are acting like Pussies and are down right Embarrassing. On their forums they are talking about our reactions to them and how we are scared. Sheesh enough is enough, I ain't biting my toung to please some idiots on here. Let's play like we know we can and give them a beating. We are a better team with better players. We know that and they know that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badboy 1,526 Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Here we go again this time we are going to defend our crown ! I remember in 1999-2000 when they said ''Manchester United are back to defend their crown'' and I was like damn I wish we can win this glorious competition one day and we did it 12 years later. Now we are back to defend what is rightfully ours ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shulz 23 Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 I'm both a Chelsea and a Juventus supporter, so I know both teams very well.Juventus is a very very good team, with a solid defense and a great midfield, one of the best midfields in Europe. They play well, have very good chemistry and are very tough to beat.But Juve has also some some issues: they lacks a top quality striker, are too Pirlo-centric, and from time to time are too offensive, and their defensive line happens to be too high. The speed and the class of Mata and Eden may be a very tough test for Bonucci, Barzagli and Chiellini, who are very strong but a little slow. RDM should play them very wide on the wing, because Juve's wings always play very high.If our midfield manage to do a heavy pressing on Pirlo all night long I think we have a very good chance. If we let Pirlo play... Well, we're in trouble.I think Juventus will play a 3-5-2:BuffonBarzagli-Bonucci-ChielliniLichtsteiner(Isla)-Vidal-Pirlo-Marchisio-AsamoahVucinic-GiovincoIn my opinion Chelsea should play like this:CechIvanovic-Terry-Luiz-ColeRamires-Mikel-OscarMata-Torres-HazardBut RDM will never agree with me Ps: I'm italian, sorry for my english.good analysis, I actually think Chelsea could be one of our worst opponents, because they cover the spaces behind very well and can make quick counters with Torres-Mata-Hazard, passing through Lampard. last year Juve suffered a lot from fast players with great counter ability, like Napoli's and Spain's at the european cup(defence and midfield were almost all Juve players). if we keep the defence line too high we don't stand a chance.
