The day after the defeat against Udinese, the fans’ comments: “The ‘game’ is always the same, for fourth place a new project is better to build something”. And the use of the Brazilian defender is depicted with Tafazzi
For Juventus it is the day of disillusionment. After having scored just one point in the last three games, losing on the way not only to league leaders Inter (who they wanted to chase) but also at home against Empoli and Udinese in the midst of a battle for survival, waking up at -7 against the Nerazzurri is particularly bitter : “Beautiful those who publish the Juve bench to demonstrate that we are poor and it’s not Allegri’s fault: Empoli and Udinese had Brazil 1970 on the bench instead”, writes a fan.
“The argument is very simple, Juve this year has often failed in matches thanks to their determination, enthusiasm and brilliance by not having to play in Europe – writes another -. As soon as all this dropped a little, the results also disappeared, who would have thought. Then oh well we were told that this year everything has changed but in reality you have just three points more than last year and the “game” is still the same. Storytelling”.
CHEERFUL

Massimiliano Allegri is therefore back at the center of the criticism: “A minute of silence for Juve who “have improved in their game” (in January, it is not even clear what they had improved in). We’re just wasting time. But on the other hand, this is the most anti-Juventus Juventus ever, it lives on proclamations, slogans.” Or: “If next year we have to play for 4th place as extras in the Champions League, I prefer to do it with a coach and a new project that can build something, bring enthusiasm and fresh air. With all due respect, after 3 years of Allegri I don’t see any improvement compared to Pirlo’s Juve. We haven’t built anything.” Another: “The goal this year is to return to the Champions League. Allegri must hit it, take his severance pay and say goodbye to everyone. A very good foundation has been laid, there are many interesting players who could grow a lot in the hands of a different coach.”
ALEX SANDRO

Thinking about Allegri’s choices also opens a window on the individuals, some in particular who have been under the fire of criticism for some time: “There could be a 1-1 draw with 10 men against Empoli. We’re losing out in Milan. Not tonight – says another post -. The slow maneuver is incomprehensible, redeploying Alex Sandro as the starter after Empoli, conceding a goal from a set piece like that, the substitutions! What has been done should not make anyone relax. Not at Juventus!”. More specifically: “Is it possible that when Alex Sandro plays we aren’t always with one man less? It’s easy to blame him, the real culprit is those who put him in the team, see him every day, is it possible that he didn’t realize that this Brazilian is disliked by his teammates?”. Or with irony: “Alex Sandro solves it”, and below the image of Tafazzi, a character known… for self-harm.
