“I know that this is not in his character” Deschamps reacts to Pogba’s ban France manager Didier Deschamps has responded to the four-year ban handed to Paul Pogba for failing a drug test. ............ He said: “I never believed for a second that Paul did it voluntarily, that he had the intention of doping. Knowing him well, I know that this It’s not in his character at all. Now the facts are in and what the two samples taken reveal. The presence of the illicit hormone is indisputable. Given everything he has achieved on the team and the relationships we have built, his situation saddens me and I hope that everything can be sorted out. In any case, I want to believe his version.” ............ Read more -> https://www.juvefc.com/i-know-that-this-is-not-in-his-character-deschamps-reacts-to-pogbas-ban/

“Nothing dirties the memory” Journalist reacts to Pogba’s four-year ban Journalist Paolo Rossi believes that Paul Pogba’s four-year ban from football is an excessively severe punishment, likening it to a life sentence. The midfielder has been awaiting a verdict since he failed a drug test, resulting in his suspension from playing. Pogba provided a defence, explaining how the banned supplement entered his system. Despite expecting a reasonable punishment, he has been handed a four-year ban, effectively terminating his playing career at the Allianz Stadium. ............ He said: “They could have even given him a life sentence (as this is in fact, football-wise). Personally, nothing dirties the memory of the phenomenon that Pogba was and the pleasure of having seen him live.” ............

“I believe the verdict is wrong” Pogba reacts to his four-year ban Juventus midfielder Paul Pogba has responded to the four-year ban just imposed on him for a doping-related offence. The midfielder has been under suspension since August following a positive test for a banned substance. His ban dealt a significant blow to Juve, as they had been counting on a healthier Pogba to contribute in various competitions this season. ............ Nevertheless, Pogba contends that the punishment is excessively severe and pledges to fight to clear his name. The Frenchman wrote: “I have today been informed of the Tribunale Nazionale Antidoping’s decision and believe that the verdict is incorrect. “I am sad, shocked and heartbroken that everything I have built in my professional playing career has been taken away from me. “When I am free of legal restrictions the full story will become clear, but I have never knowingly or deliberately taken any supplements that violate anti-doping regulations.” Adding: “As a consequence of the decision announced today I will appeal this before the Court of Arbitration for Sport.” ............

Paul Pogba banned for four years from football for positive doping test The Frenchman failed an initial test last August for the compound DHEA. Unfortunately, his B sample also came back positive and he has now received an official verdict. Italy’s national anti-doping tribunal (NADO) handed Paul Pogba a four-year ban from competitive football for failing a doping test in August 2023. He tested positive for the compound DHEA — or Dehydroepiandrosterone — which is “a hormone that your body produces in the adrenal gland and helps produce other hormones, such as testosterone and estrogen.” The ban officially starts from the date of the failed test, which means that Pogba won’t be able to return to competitive football until August 2027. He’ll be 34 years old then. Pogba has confirmed that he will appeal the verdict at the Court of Arbitration for Sport, as is his legal right to do so. In the meantime, it’s uncertain what his status as a Juventus player will be as he appeals this decision. ............

Juventus is prepared to use a young midfielder as a sweetener to sign Lewis Ferguson Lewis Ferguson has emerged as one of the most improved players in Serie A this season, catching the attention of Juventus who are keen on the Bologna star. ............ Ferguson, a key player under Thiago Motta, has played a pivotal role in Bologna’s pursuit of a top-four finish in Serie A this season. Despite interest from Premier League clubs, Juventus is determined to secure his services and may strengthen their bid by offering Bologna a potential replacement. Juventus is now considering including Hans Nicolussi Caviglia as part of the deal to finalise the transfer. ............

Paganini: “Chiesa will leave Juventus if Allegri stays, Thiago Motta serious hypothesis” Italian journalist Massimo Paganini weighs in on the situation at Juventus involving Federico Chiesa and Max Allegri. The two men appear to be incompatible, at least based on the 26-year-old most recent performances. Chiesa is a natural winger, but has been forced to play as a second striker to fill in the manager’s 3-5-2 tactical system. ............ Therefore, Paganini tips Chiesa to leave Juventus at the end of the season if Allegri were to remain at the helm. “I had already mentioned it in recent weeks. I believe Chiesa will leave Juventus if Allegri stays,” said the journalist. “These are the ongoing rumors. From a financial standpoint, Chiesa’s exit will probably serve to fund the transfer campaign, probably with Allegri on the bench. “However, if another coach arrives, the situation changes.” ............ “There is indeed the idea of moving towards an extension with Allegri, but it is equally true that the Thiago Motta hypothesis remains very, very serious, because Juventus could open a cycle with a new coach. So let’s say this is the crossroads. “Entry into the Champions League will be decisive on an economic level. “At the moment, Allegri’s renewal is no longer as certain as it was before. Thiago Motta’s candidacy is gaining a lot of steam.” Read more -> https://www.juvefc.com/paganini-chiesa-will-leave-juventus-if-allegri-stays-thiago-motta-serious-hypothesis/

Allegri insists the most important thing was to get three points Max Allegri insists that the most crucial aspect is Juventus securing a victory against Frosinone and earning all three points in their quest to secure a Champions League spot. ............ Acknowledging the significance of the match, Allegri stressed the importance of not losing to Frosinone. Despite a bright start with an early lead, the game proved to be challenging, and the Bianconeri could have settled for a 2-2 draw if Daniele Rugani had not scored the late winner. Allegri is delighted his team won, and after the final whistle, he said: “There are also these moments, we just need to work on it and start doing what we did before. At the moment it’s like this and we will try to reverse the trend, just as today it was important to win and because they are three important points for the Champions League race. And above all we remove ourselves from these four games where we only had two points.” ............

Pundit insists Juventus struggled despite defeating Frosinone Pundit Alessandro Santarelli insists he would have called for Max Allegri’s sacking if Juventus had not beaten Frosinone, emphasising that their performance was subpar. ............ Despite taking the lead, the home side found themselves pegged back, and Frosinone even led the game 2-1 at some point. Santarelli argues that Juve’s overall performance in the fixture falls short of that expected from a team aiming to re-enter the Serie A title race. They eventually scored the winning goal through Daniel Rugani, but that did not satisfy Santarelli, who said: “Despite Rugani’s goal, it was a difficult performance to comment on: in the event of a non-victory I would have asked for the coach’s immediate dismissal. He continues to be seriously worried after this performance which you can’t do against Frosinone at home. “The second half disheartened me, only Vlahovic and Mckennie are saved who are on 8, after all, I don’t save anything. Alcaraz was also good and showed determination, but maybe there’s a reason if someone played in the Championship”. ............

Juventus Player Ratings vs Frosinone: Rugani the Unlikely Hero ............ Juventus (3-5-2) Wojciech Szczesny – 5 The former Arsenal man reacted slowly on the first Frosinone goal, but the power took it past him on the second. Frosinone never gave him the chance to atone afterwards. Federico Gatti – 6.5 The former Frosinone man kept driving forward to support his team’s attacks. Instigated the opening goal and almost scored another himself. Gleison Bremer – 6 The Brazilian seemed impeded by an early booking which forced him to remain on the safe side of the action. A decent outing overall, even if it wasn’t his most convincing. Daniele Rugani – 7 The Italian defender emerged as the unlikely hero with a last-minute winner that even the most prolific of strikers would have been proud of given the acute angle. Perhaps he could have done better on Frosinone’s second goal, but he certainly made amends by claiming the first Juventus winner in several weeks. Andrea Cambiaso – 6 ............ Weston McKennie – 6.5 An action-packed day for the USMNT star who delivered two assists to Vlahovic, but almost gifted the opponents a goal with a careless pass at the back. He rectified his mistake with a suicidal block, but it earned him a shoulder injury. Manuel Locatelli – 5.5 ............ Adrien Rabiot – 5.5 The stand-in Juventus captain sustained a knock in the first half that cut his outing short before he could even produce anything noteworthy. Filip Kostic – 5 ............ Federico Chiesa – 5 The Italian is enduring a torrid run and just doesn’t seem to be capable of pulling off the spectaculars at the moment. Dusan Vlahovic – 8 Kudos to Rugani for scoring the winner, but Vlahovic was easily the Man of the Match. Took his two goals exceptionally well, kept urging his teammates forward, and eventually flicked the header which proved to be the assist for the valuable winner. Substitutes Carlos Alcaraz – 5.5 The young Argentine lacked precision in his shooting and passing but always looked to advance the play. Timothy Weah – 5.5 ............ Kenan Yildiz – 5 A forgettable afternoon for the teenager who replaced Chiesa without providing any upgrade. Samuel Iling-Junior – 6.5 The Englishman turned out to be the winning card for Juventus. Helped the team win a corner kick and his delivery culminated in the last-minute winner.

Injury time Rugani strike ends Juventus winless run Juventus’ much-awaited game against Frosinone started with the Bianconeri taking the lead before some fans were even settled in their seats, as Dusan Vlahovic scored the opener after just three minutes. However, Frosinone was not going to make life easy for the Bianconeri and equalised eleven minutes later, stunning the Allianz Stadium. Frosinone was inspired by that equaliser and scored the next goal to take the lead against a Juve side that lacked confidence. To make matters worse for the Old Lady, Adrien Rabiot pulled up after the goal and had to be replaced by Carlos Alcaraz. The Argentine made an almost instant impact as he was involved in the next goal, with Vlahovic scoring again to pull Juve level at 2-2. ............ Juve kept asking questions, and the Bianconeri finally scored with the last kick of the game, thanks to a poacher’s goal from Daniele Rugani. The Bianconeri have returned to form, thanks to an unlikely hero, and Inter Milan can feel the pressure again.

Penso sia stato Bremer Purtroppo ci facciamo anche male da soli

Rabiot é uscito per una botta. Pare che abbia rimediato una frattura?

Allegri ama rischiare solo al casinó .....

Giocatore adattato = giocatore frustrato.

Allegri boccia Chiesa e tenterá la carta Yildiz.

Peccato che indossi (attualmente) la maglia sbagliata.

DUSAN VLAHOVIC 2-2

Questa partita é un disonore per la gloriosa maglia della Juventus. Ma i calciatori in campo sono limitati o lo fanno apposta per far cacciare Allegri?

Siamo al cose da pazzi

Secondo le statistiche, il Frosinone non ha mai vinto contro la Juve ...... finora.

Giuntoli moggeggia

1-1

Siamo nel momento topico della stagione. Giuntoli puó mai dire pubblicamente che Allegri sta per andare via?

DUSAN VLAHOVIC 1-0
