Socrates

Calafiori fortissimo 3-0

Non sono rientrati dagli spogliatoi Cambiaso e Miretti. Montero che gli hai fatto?

Ho usato la parola "svegliare" invece della parola "picchiare"

Pigna fai entrare Yildiz e giochiamo con tre punte. E soprattutto sveglia i ragazzi come sai fare tu.

I nostri hanno esagerato con lo champagne/spumante

Montero nello spogliatoio li azzanna

Una somiglianza sorprendente con il brasiliano stanco

Montero li ha trasformati

Una tigre dormiente

Miretti segue l'esempio del mister ad interim e picchia di brutto.

Giuntoli to reunite the band – Three collaborators join him at Juventus Stefanelli e Pompilio Juventus Football Director Cristiano Giuntoli will reunite with three of his former collaborators this summer. ............ Juventus sporting director Giovanni Manna was the one who set the plans last summer. However, the latter will soon depart to take over at Napoli. Interestingly, this would set the stage for a swap. with Giuseppe Pompilio leaving the Maradona Stadium to reunite with Giuntoli. Pompilio is the collaborator that Giuntoli missed the most this season. The two men worked together at Carpi and Napoli for several years ............ The Bianconeri Football Director is also looking to bring Stefano Stefanelli on board. The latter worked alongside Giuntoli in the past as well and seemed to be one step away from landing in Turin last summer, but eventually ended up signing for Cesena as sporting director. Nevertheless, his current employers won’t stand in his way, as he could finally make the move to Continassa and take over the scouting department. Finally, the experienced Michele Sbravati is currently in charge of Genoa’s youth sector, but could soon occupy a similar role at Juventus and oversee the club’s various age groups.

The probable Juventus lineup vs Bologna: Montero maintains status quo Juventus caretaker coach Paolo Montero won’t be ringing the changes in his debut lineup against Bologna at the Renato Dall’Ara today. The 52-year-old replaced Max Allegri who was unceremoniously sacked on Friday following his behavior during the Coppa Italia final against Atalanta. Montero will thus be in charge of the club’s last two matches, beginning with this evening’s encounter against Bologna. ............ Juventus Probable XI (3-5-2): Szczesny; Gatti, Bremer, Danilo; Cambiaso, Miretti (McKennie), Locatelli, Rabiot, Kostic (Iling-Junior); Vlahovic, Chiesa (Yildiz).

Bologna vs. Juventus match preview Juventus’ interim manager will be coaching his first-ever game at the senior level against the guy who everybody is expecting to become the Bianconeri’s next manager. For a club that has already wrapped up Champions League qualification and is still just a few days out from winning their first and only trophy of the 2023-24 season, things have very much not been smooth sailing for Juventus ever since the final whistle sounded at the Coppa Italia final. The minutes following the Juve winning their first trophy in three years weren’t pretty outside of the players and coaches celebrating together. And certainly the couple of days after lifting the Coppa Italia in Rome was far from anything you would call routine and low key. Because of all that, Juventus now head into their final two games of the season without much to play for, a caretaker manager who will only be around for the next two weekends before going back to his regular job and still some lingering unease as a result of how Max Allegri was dismissed. Oh, and just for an added measure when Juventus face Bologna on Monday night, the Bianconeri will be lining up against a manager who is the overwhelming favorite — and virtually only candidate as things look — to take over for Allegri in relatively short order. Then again, because of recent events, Juventus has a new manager for the next couple of games to close out the season. And that guy is the same guy who used to do this in bianconero during a time when some of us were growing up: One of the most hard-nosed, no-nonsense players Juventus have seen in the last couple of generations of players is now the guy who will be seeing this team across the finish line as their caretaker manager. And it’s pretty amusing that Juve had to wait to announce Paolo Montero as their interim head coach because he first had to serve a one-game suspension due to a red card in the primavera’s season finale over the weekend. That just seems very on brand for Montero and what we know about how he played. But now Montero is on the sidelines for Juventus for the next nine days to see out the final two games of the season — first the trip to Bologna before hosting Monza in the season finale. Once those two games come to a close and Juve put an end to this season that has gone from very good to very bad over the span of 3 1⁄2 months, the attention will turn over to just how quickly Juventus can finalize their deal to bring Thiago Motta from Bologna to Turin. ............ Plus, there’s simply the unknown of what Montero is going to do from a tactical sense of things. Will he keep things just as Allegri has with the 3-5-2? Will he maybe throw us a surprise or two even though he’s used a 3-4-2-1 in the past? Even though there’s not a whole lot at stake, will this Juventus team play like the pressure is off them following Champions League qualification and the Coppa italia win? Considering there’s just two games to see things out, who really knows if Montero will do anything other than keep things consistent with the formation and all that. It sure would be nice if he could win a game or two to wrap up the season because, no matter if Max Allegri is gone or not, Juve are still very much in the midst of one of the worst second halves of a season in quite some time. TEAM NEWS Paolo Montero held his first training session with the senior team on Sunday, but he did not hold a pre-match press conference. That means we aren’t totally sure what he’s thinking regarding his starting lineup against Bologna. As far as we know, Mattia De Sciglio is the only player who will miss out due to injury. While Juventus have not released their matchday squad as of this being written, it is expected that Nicolo Fagioli will be back with the team in full on Monday, the first official day after his gambling suspension is over with. Andrea Cambiaso is the only Juventus player who is one card away from suspension. JUVENTUS PLAYER TO WATCH ............ Nicolo Fagioli last appeared in a game for Juventus on Oct. 1, 2023, a draw with Atalanta. Less than three weeks later, Fagioli was agreeing to a plea deal in which he received a seven-month suspension for illegal gambling. The time in between the first day and the final day of his suspension on Sunday involved training with the team but also plenty of meetings and speaking engagements to meet the mandatory requirements of his plea deal. Now, it’s back to the football. With no Montero press conference before the boys made the trip over to Emilia Romagna, it’s hard to say where Fagioli could fit into things now that he is eligible to play again. But when it comes to him playing, considering the stakes are low and this is the first of two relatively pressure-free games to finish up the season, there’s more than just a little bit of hope that Fagioli can at least get a little bit of playing time before his summer holiday. Simply stepping out on that field again will feel like a giant step in Fagioli’s rehab process. And if he gets some minutes, too? That would just be the icing on the cake. MATCH INFO When: Monday, May 20, 2024. Where: Stadio Renato Dall’Ara, Bologna, Italy.

Bologna vs Juventus: Preview and Prediction Third place in Serie A will be on the line when Juventus travel to Bologna on Monday night. High-flying Bologna will aim to end their 26-year-old hoodoo against Juventus at home when they face the Coppa Italia holders on Monday night. The Bianconeri should be celebrating following their cup win but are currently in a state of turmoil after parting ways with legendary boss Massimiliano Allegri. The veteran tactician’s departure could pave the way for Bologna to stun their rivals, inflicting their first loss in this match-up since 2011. Both sides are currently tied at 67 points, separated by only goal difference. The game should more or less help decide who finishes higher up. For Bologna, it will be a good test of where they stand give that tougher challenges will await them in next season’s UEFA Champions League. Curiously, Thiago Motta, who has been a key architect of Bologna’s rise has been touted as a potential successor for Allegri at Juventus. This clash on Monday could be seen as an audition of sorts for the 41-year-old to seal the deal. He currently has a new three-year deal on the table at Bologna, and the coming weeks should prove to be interesting reading. Juventus have struggled to score goals this season and now come up against a Rossoblu side that has conceded just twice in the last eight Serie A games. Defensive solidity has been a key aspect in their success, and it remains to be seen if Juventus can pick their battles wisely on the night. With Allegri gone, youth team coach Paolo Montero will be in the dugout for Juventus on the night. With a UEFA Champions League spot already assured, he will be able to get the job done without being overwhelmed by the potential consequences. The Bianconeri have won just two of their last 15 Serie A games, effectively throwing away an opportunity to challenge for the title. They now face a fresh start and will hope to rediscover that winning touch after a run of five draws in the league. How the game pans out could prove to be decisive for both teams’ futures going forward. The Hard Tackle delves into the potential elevens and tactics for this highly-anticipated clash. Team News & Tactics Bologna Bologna will be without a trio of key players for Monday’s match at the Dall’Ara. Striker Joshua Zirkzee, who has attracted interest from Manchester United and Arsenal, is sidelined with a hamstring injury after playing 73 minutes against Napoli. ............ Probable Lineup (4-2-3-1): Skorupski; Posch, Lucumi, Calafiori, Kristiansen; Freuler, Aebischer; Orsolini, Urbanski, Ndoye; Odgaard Juventus Juventus will be without Mattia De Sciglio, who is recovering from a muscle issue. Paul Pogba is still suspended but Nicolo Fagioli is set to return. Juventus have an otherwise fully fit roster to choose from for the game. Paolo Montero is likely to set his side up in a 3-5-2 formation, with Wojciech Szczesny in goal. The veteran should be protected by the defensive trio of Danilo, Federico Gatti, and Gleison Bremer. The trio of Adrien Raiot, Fabio Miretti and Weston McKennie should form the central midfield, with Andrea Cambiaso and Filip Kostic leading the forward foray on the flanks. Dusan Vlahovic was the hero in the Coppa Italia final and will hope to mark his 100th game for Juventus in style, with Federico Chiesa partnering him in attack. Probable Lineup (3-5-2): Szczesny; Danilo, Gatti, Bremer; Cambiaso, Rabiot, McKennie, Miretti, Kostic; Vlahovic, Chiesa Key Stats A draw on the night will see both sides draw two of their games in a league campaign for the first time since 2011/12. Juventus have lost just once in their last 42 Serie A games to Bologna. I Rossoblu last defeated the Bianconeri in Serie A in 2011. Bologna last defeated Juventus at home in the league in 1998, 26 years ago. They have since drawn six games and lost 14 to Juventus. ............ Player to Watch Dusan Vlahovic The Serb is set for his 100th appearance for Juventus and will hope to mark it off with another match-winning performance. He found the back of the net in the Coppa Italia final against Atalanta and will aim to continue that purple patch of form. ............ Prediction Bologna 2-1 Juventus Bologna have the edge going into the game and have an immaculate record at home this season. While Juventus will be riding high thanks to their cup win, the managerial merry-go-round could leave them open to be exploited. Thiago Motta will be keen to make an impact towards his potential future employers and should have Bologna geared up for war. The Hard Tackle predicts a win for Bologna, their first at home against Juventus since 1998. Read more -> https://thehardtackle.com/round-up/2024/05/19/bologna-vs-juventus-preview-and-prediction/

Should Juventus opt for De Zerbi if Motta does not join them? Juventus’ managerial spot remains an open debate as they look to replace Max Allegri in the coming weeks. The Bianconeri have pencilled in Thiago Motta as their choice of manager to replace their sacked former coach. Motta has done well at Bologna, and Juventus is confident he can make them a good team again if he becomes the manager. ............ However, Bologna also wants him to stay and lead their team in the Champions League next term. Motta is under pressure to decide on his future and has said he will give an answer in the coming days. Although Juve is confident they will secure him as their manager, there is a chance he might decide to stay at Bologna. If that happens, the Bianconeri will turn to Roberto De Zerbi, who is now their plan B. He just announced his departure from Brighton at the end of this season and might favour a return to Serie A as Juve’s manager. ............

Thuram is not the only Nice player that Juventus wants to sign Juventus’ interest in Khephren Thuram has been well-documented, as they have tracked the Nice midfielder for several months. As of last summer, it seemed they were ready to act on their interest, and reports in January also linked them with a move for the midfielder. However, Thuram has remained at Nice, where he is a key player and has continued to develop his skills. ............ Nice has several talented young players who have helped them impress in Ligue 1. The report claims that the other player from the French club that Juventus could sign is the defender Jean-Clair Todibo. The centre-back has made a name for himself since moving to the French club, and Juve believes he can help their defence. ............

Allegri esonerato: Juventus, il comunicato e l'addio a Max L'allenatore bianconero è stato sollevato dall'incarico dopo l'incontro con la dirigenza alla Continassa FONTE

Preview: Bologna vs Juventus – Team News, Lineups & Prediction The final game of the penultimate Serie A round pits Bologna and Juventus against each other in Monday’s top-four six-pointer. There’s nothing but goal difference to separate the sides ahead of the kick-off. A third-place finish is, therefore, up for grabs. Bologna scored twice inside the opening 15 minutes on the road for only the second time across the last 65 Serie A seasons to dispatch dethroned champions Napoli in the previous round. That result sealed Rossoblu’s remarkable Champions League qualification with two games to spare, taking their seasonal points record to 67. Only in 1963/64, when they won the title, Bologna bettered this tally in the three-point-per-win era. With their confidence skyrocketing, Bologna will be out to pour more misery on Juventus, a side determined to hire their coach Thiago Motta this summer. Bianconeri sacked long-serving boss Massimiliano Allegri on Friday, only two days after hoisting their first title since 2021. Dusan Vlahovic’s early opener inspired Juventus to a narrow 1-0 win against Atalanta in Wednesday’s Coppa Italia final. But that wasn’t enough to save Allegri’s job amid fans’ unrest. The Turin giants have appointed Paolo Montero as a caretaker boss until the end of the season. Match Preview Bologna It’s been a memorable season for Bologna, whose head coach is the leading candidate to fill the managerial vacancy at the Allianz Stadium. Motta has transformed perennial mid-table tenants into a team to beat in Serie A, especially at Stadio Renato Dall’Ara. Only uncontested champions Inter have amassed more home points than Bologna’s 40 this season (W12, D4, L2). Only Inter and Milan have beaten Motta’s side at this venue, highlighting the hosts’ confidence ahead of this fixture that’s historically not been kind to them. You’d need to go back to 2011 for the last time Bologna celebrated victory against Juventus in Serie A. ............ Juventus Fresh off their Coppa Italia success, Juventus return to Serie A, searching for their first league win since early April. Adrien Rabiot’s last-gasp equalizer salvaged a 1-1 draw against basement boys Salernitana last weekend, extending Binaconeri’s underwhelming league run to five straight stalemates. Winning on the road has proved particularly challenging for the Turin outfit. Since a 3-0 demolition of Lecce in January, they have won none of their last seven away league games (D4, L3), netting under 1.5 goals on five occasions. However, Dall’Ara has been a happy hunting ground for Juventus. They have claimed seven victories on their last eight Serie A visits to Bologna (D1). Extending that run with another triumph would likely produce a tight scoreline, not least because five of Juventus’ eight away league wins this season have yielded a one-goal margin. Juventus would be well-advised to fly out of the traps as their hosts have only conceded one second-half goal in 18 Serie A home fixtures this season. The problem is the visitors have only scored 11 first-half goals on their top-flight travels thus far. Team News In addition to long-term absentee Adama Soumaoro and captain Lewis Ferguson, Bologna will be without sought-after forward Joshua Zirkzee. ............ For Juventus: Nicolo Fagioli is back from a lengthy ban, while Mattia De Sciglio could make the bench after returning to training. It’s uncertain whether Montero would alter Allegri’s famous 3-5-2, but Vlahovic and Federico Chiesa should start anyway. Bologna vs Juventus Potential Lineups Bologna (4-2-3-1): Lukasz Skorupski; Stefan Posch, Jhon Lucumi, Riccardo Calafiori, Victor Kristiansen; Remo Freuler, Michel Aebischer; Riccardo Orsolini, Kacper Urbanski, Dan Ndoye; Jens Odgaard. Juventus (3-5-2): Wojciech Szczesny; Danilo, Federico Gatti, Gleison Bremer; Andrea Cambiaso, Adrien Rabiot, Weston McKennie, Fabio Miretti, Filip Kostic; Dusan Vlahovic, Federico Chiesa. Bologna vs Juventus Prediction No one would dare to bet against Bologna at Dall’Ara this season. Despite the managerial shift, there’s a feeling a draw would be their maximum as we back the hosts for success.

Moggi blames Giuntoli for Allegri fiasco: “I took a different approach with Ancelotti” Former Juventus sporting director Luciano Moggi criticizes Cristiano Giuntoli for the way he handled the Max Allegri situation. ............ The coach also refused to embrace Giuntoli during the cup celebration ceremony. Eventually, the club viewed this incident as the perfect alibi to rid themselves of the under-fire manager for behavioral reasons, though the decision to part ways had reportedly been taken a while ago. For his part, Moggi blamed Giuntoli for the whole incident, believing the latter should have clarified his intention to change the manager a while ago rather than keeping him in the dark. The 86-year-old feels he had taken the right approach when he informed Ancelotti of his plans to sack him during the 2000/01 campaign. “I think there was a lack of communication between the parties,” said Moggi in his interview with TgR Piemonte. “Had Giuntoli said halfway through the season, as I did with Ancelotti at the time, ‘Look, at the end of the campaign our paths will divide’, there wouldn’t have been any reason to make this mess.” ............

Di Marzio: Thiago Motta gave his word to Juventus, Allegri was hoping for farewell Italian football journalist Gianluca Di Marzio claims Thiago Motta has already pledged his word to Juventus. It has been an eventful few days at Continassa, to say the least. The Bianconeri sacked Allegri for his fiery outburst in Coppa Italia final, a clash he ironically won. ............ “Motta hasn’t signed anything yet but he has a commitment to Juventus for a three-year deal,” said Di Marzio during his appearance on Sky Sport Italia. “He has already made the decision to join the Bianconeri.” ............ “I don’t know what Allegri’s plans are at the moment. These were delicate hours. “He was expecting to remain on the bench to greet the fans on the final day of the season. Now there are also legal conflicts, so I don’t think he’s thinking about another job.” Read more -> https://www.juvefc.com/di-marzio-thiago-motta-gave-his-word-to-juventus-allegri-was-hoping-for-farewell/

Thiago Motta reveals his future will be decided in coming days amidst Juventus links Bologna coach Thiago Motta admits the next few days will be crucial to determine his future amidst growing links to the Juventus hot seat. The 41-year-old enjoyed a majestic campaign at the Renato Dall’Ara, leading the club towards the Champions League for the first time in their history. However, the Italo-Brazilian’s contract will expire at the end of the season, leaving his future up in the air. In recent months, Motta emerged as Juve’s primary target to inherit Max Allegri’s place in the dugout. ............ “In the next few days I will meet with the president,” said Motta in his pre-match press conference ahead of Monday’s clash against Juventus. “We will make a decision together and communicate it jointly. The time has come to do so, but it must be done internally and with great respect for everyone.” If Saputo fails to convince Motta to stay put, the latter will likely head to Turin in the coming weeks.
