Closed Chelsea vs Juventus

[Steve 10,227]

We may be the ones predominantly counter attacking, depending on RDM's ability to muster up some courage regarding the lineup.

True but if we do I think they will punish us early. Let's hope I am wrong, as we have more then enough ability to win this game.

am i the only one not feeling madrid mania .. i mean i i love them and support them in la liga and 've huge respect for the 'only one' but i dont feel like they are like gods in football now.. what did they have achived so much in last few years in CL.bayern munich have to get more respect than them...

but of course i want to see city geeting spanked

You're right. Mourinho hasn't been able to create a incredible team despite the huge amount of talent in the squad. They're good, very good but they're not special. Real's not above the likes of Bayern, Utd (yes Utd crashed out early last year and while it was hilarious, it was only an incident) and us. They just have so much individual quality that they're able to hurt any opponent at any time.

That said, it would indeed be nice if they gave City a good spanking.

[KonohasOrangeFlash 2,607]

Real is easily above the likes of us and United. Don't know how anyone cannot see that. They are arguably the best team in the world.

[Amblève. 4,995]

I know this is gonna be a tricky game, but there's something everybody involved in this club has to know all the time, no matter who the opponent is and how difficult the situation is: We are the CHAMPIONS OF EUROPE and we can beat EVERBODY. We've gone through so much in the last couple of years and especially in the last season. I don't want to see anybody posting stuff like "We have to fear Juve" and "We're gonna lose". They have to fear us and think they are gonna lose this game, not us.

Lets just defend well and counter attack well.

Hello everyone, I'm a juve fan

I hope it's a beautiful game. I'm not a guy who does proclamations or otherwise. And do not agree to say that Juve has the second best midfield ..... of course ... our midfield is very good but some scenarios for certain players as Marchisio, Vidal, etc. Asamoah. are entirely new.

So ... I think chelsea have weaknesses .. as well as the juventus. Certain games to decide the state of the general form of the team or just a few episodes, as a penalty or free kick ... whatever the outcome of the game. I think the return to Turin is a different game, because the teams are not yet to top .. and if in case my juventus were to lose, would have the chance to win at Juventus Stadium ... that's all;)

The only caveat is that finally the juve back competitive in Europe and therefore the mood of the fans is a bit 'fizzy .. nothing more obvious .. like you, we love football so much

ps. As every fan, everyone has teams that sympathizes abroad and chelsea is one of my favorite teams in england ...

for the record ... literally hate Liverpool

pps.: Nice forum

Vidal will play ?

Anyway ; you have some defensive weaknesses in this start of the season , and you are struggling to win your Serie A games , in the Supercup against Napoli before the sending off it was also very difficult for you , i feel that this Juve is not as good defensively as they were last year , i love Juventus , because of some great players you had , Trezegoal , Zidane , Nedved , Camoranesi and now with Pirlo , Marchisio and Chiellini who is for me the best Central defender in italy , but i feel you will dominate and win because we are not for now a team with a very good teamplay , we are struggling to have chances in our last two games (QPR and Falcao FC) , and we'll miss Drogba tommorow , that Striker that used to score in big games , so it will be a 1-0 2-0 for Juventus , but if we really defend well , we have our chances.

You're being unreasonably pessimistic. If we play Mata and Hazard and play somewhat attacking football we can create some chances. I don't think Juventus are particularly deadly on the counter attack as they aren't particularly quick.

We can outplay Juventus if we do the right things. As I said trying to out possess them by stopping them playing in the middle will undoubtedly win us this game as they don't have great threats going forward. Our solid defense should be able to cope with them.

Vidal will play ?

yes, he did not play the last game of the season to rest

what is the player who fear more in midfield and attack juventus? I'm afraid of chelsea lampard and hazard, although I think lampard is tightly closed by our midfield. then attack torres is a compione so I'm always afraid of him ..

[Zenza001 60]

Vidal will play ?

yes

[BleedsBlue 1,549]

I honestly predict a draw.Either 0-0 or 1-1.

They are playing the counter attacks very well , sometimes you dont need fast players but players that take good decisions in a short time and they have that sort of players, yes they are more a team that wants the ball because of their 3-5-2 / 3-4-3/4-3-3 but if we concede its unlikely to see us winning, i might be pessimistic but i'm also realistic , they are better , but if we score the opener then it will be a different story

[Zenza001 60]

To be honest, we are waiting for Isla. Bought from Udinese this summer. If you make it as Asamoah then the midfield will be more powerful, it really is a great player and is still recovering from injury

Asamoah - Vidal - Pirlo - Marchsio - Isla

is our goal.

And we're still trying to figure out what is the highest-scoring pair Vucinic-Matri or Vucinic-Giovinco.

I know very little Bendtner ... maybe explodes and becomes important .. maybe ...... ...

In the light of these facts ... we can say with certainty that the current Juve is not yet complete, we still question marks.

I would certainly be happier if we had met Chelsea in a few weeks and not tomorrow night

[Heisenberg 1,824]

Bendtner is a joke., its a big mistake.Even Matri who is not that good is better.

Giovinco :blush:

Asamoah is more a powerful CM no ? Impressive when he was at Udine.What could be the team tommorow ?

lichtsteiner - vidal - pirlo - marchisio - asamoah

he will make the wing of the midfield

[Las7 951]

I swear if I see Ramires on the right wing again I'm going to get drunk before the game even begins.
