Juventus in relegation zone? Lmfaoooo. I though it was Pirlo's fault?

This team is so fucking shit because they wasted all that money on Ronaldo. Now that Ronaldo leaves, they don't do anything with that money. What the fuck? They have worse clowns than us running things.

Great, Juve is too comfortable to feel like they have the game already. Milan would struggle with team like Sassuolo, their midfield is lost if there is no real target man.

Aaah, perfect result.

Juve crisis continues. They look so fucking average and they sit at 2 points after 4 rounds. It feels ecstatic given they have the biggest salary budget of the league and it's not even close.

Allegri has always been a slow starter but he is giving a big head start to the others. :D Milan on the other hand, was surprisingly good eventually after the first half, given all the key injuries they are having (Zlatan, Giroud, Kjaer in this match). But their lack of depth will eventually fail them.

Against my better judgment I decided to watch Rubentus-Bbilan. I'm happy with the result but seeing either of these teams makes me sick, let alone both. This has to be one of the worst games of football I've seen this year.

When i look at rube players, im so happy, most of thier players are fucking old and done, very long time passed since the last time i saw rube with such weak players..
We not strong as last season, but the other teams also not look impressive at all, if other team than us take the scudetto i will be very very surprised..

If it were anyone else I would think this post wasn't serious. Did you notice how late in the window Ronaldo left? What exactly were they supposed to do?

okay that is one of the nastiest winning goals I've ever seen

Been watching Mourinho's Roma play- they've had quite some entertaining matches so far. Great goals by Verona

Need to take one game at a time, but can't deny the very difficult stretch of games in sept&oct.

Here it is >

Fiorentina A , 21sept
Atalanta H , 25 sept
Shakhtar A, 28 sept
Sassuolo A, 02oct
INT break?
Lazio A, 16oct
Juve H, 24oct

Also must win games in CL vs Shakhtar and Sheriff between&after these.

Milan has Venezia, Spezia next. They've played really well in all of their games, even 2nd half yesterday as I read this morning.

The problem is injuries, not lack of depth.
There are several good options in almost every position. Some of the best players in the past, like Kessie and Bennacer, aren't even certain starters anymore.

But if 10 players are out at the same time then what can you do about squad depth?

Yesterday all these players were out, unfit or injured during the game:

Zlatan
Giroud
Kjaer
Calabria
Bakayoko
Krunic
Maignan - he ended up starting anyway
Florenzi - which lead to Tomori starting out of position
Messias
Pellegri

Tonali, Bennacer and Kessie are recent returnees from injuries as well.
