Why no mention of napoli?
Nima, you have to stop hitting your table or laptop when you speak.. the mic picks it up and it does effect the experience when wearing headphones
Hello, i only blame di gregorio for one or those goals, I blame the Juventus defence for sitting too deep, he wouldn't have had a clear view of the ball and been totally unsighted for all but one of those shots.
Juventus were woeful against Verona, a defensive shambles, they played as a team of individuals, there was a totally disconnected between the defence, midfield and forwards, I felt sorry for Vlahovic. AC Milan on the other hand looked superb and a proper functional team, Modric and Rabiot were fantastic. Udinese were terrible.
50:45 bookmark for myself
Brexit penalties for the win lmao 🤣🤣🤣
P.S. I love you guys but I promise you will one day rate Daniel Maldini and I’m going to die on this hill!
