Tension is brewing at Juventus as João Mário continues to look out of sync with Igor Tudor’s system, raising questions about whether the club mis-scouted the fit — or if Tudor is failing to adapt to the talent he has. Meanwhile, Juve could move for Bayern’s Kim Min-Jae as defensive reinforcement, and the latest rumblings suggest real unease over the Yildiz situation… is this the beginning of another Juventus homegrown star being pushed out?

  1. When has Joao played where he messed up defensively? I get it on paper he's not as defensive as Kalulu. But the way we play vs Madrid shows that Kalulu got forward so much, exploiting the space left by Vini. That means the mindset is not all about defense. Kalulu wasted his crossing/cut back chances. Joao, on paper, would have done better.

    And agree with you, with 3 back formation, we should have enough cover on the width, plus having Weston, he could have been asked to cover RB like he's done before.

  2. Nobody had JM on their summer radar and most Porto fans were relieved to get him off their books. Critical we get a CL spot as Yildiz cannot refuse the temptation of RM. What is even more of a bombshell are credible reports coming here in England from 5 reputable outlets stating that Big Ange, 39 days of banter is on a 5 man shortlist to replace Tudor. What was a prophecy I joked about last week is picking up. The Michael Myers of Football, Comolli gave me a Halloween special nearly making me swerve my pickup into a lamppost when I heard it on the radio. We cannot rule this out as its 1 Spuds alumni to another. If you can drop £35M on Andy Carroll which by today's currency is £60M, I will have to be getting my wife to church earlier lighting candles for what I hope is not the sequel to a classic Apocalypse Now banter version.

  3. Ey man,Let's sell Huijsin and De winter,play 3 CBs then Bremer gets injured now we scramble and KIM is the solution..let's enjoy the last days of yildez …sadly seen this before.

  4. CB is absolutely the priority. We need a center back and a midfielder primarily. And not just any CB/not some CB fit for a mid table team. We need a CB that is elite and can partner Bremer when he’s back. And then start sorting out the situation up top. This thing about Tudor supposedly prioritizing a winger, if true, would be just another bad decision among many. As someone else mentioned, “the clown show continues”.

  5. This was why I criticize Tudor's stubbornness, It's not like cambiasso played well defensively. Mario would have bigger impact offensively on the right. Using kostic or big mac on the left to cover. We would have more dynamism in options rather than just pass to yildiz and hope for the best. It's too predictable.

  6. Tudor doesn't trust the midfielders and the other three defenders That's why he prefer Lukuk at the right while at the same time Cambiaso is playing horrible at the left !

  7. Tbh by the way things are going with club I can’t blame Yildiz for leaving. It’s a mess that’s getting bigger by the day. Club needs to sort this out before he actually does decide to leave

  8. I can understand Tudors frustration. Our front office signings have been 95% blunders. Alberto Costa was a better bargain and hes been balling on both ends for Porto. No diss to Joao Mario, but who had JM on their radar? Porto fans were relieved to let him go. Hes a solid RM but isnt a defensive sound to play the backline. We constantly sell young talent for cheap and buy one season wonders or guys on the decline for an expensive transfer. A cycle of losing.

  9. If we don’t perform Yildiz may leave???? Yildiz has done 💩 the last few games. You don’t bail cause things get tough. How could you compare him to ADP if he leaves?!

  10. Kalulu has been a mess as a wingback or right back so Tudor not even trusting Mario is a Fiasco. Management doesn't give any confidence. Juve needs a miracle
