Our game in hand finally drew upon us, with a visit to struggling, surely condemned to relegation Crotone. Allegri stuck with the system yet made numerous changes to the starting XI. In came Alves, Rugani, Rincon, Pjaca and Asamoah for Lichsteiner, Chiellini, Pjanic,…
Player Ratings Buffon – Was kept fairly busy, especially in the first half and late on in the second. Yet had no major saves to make, for he was in the right place at the right time to comfortably thwart the best…
Finally the curtains have been closed on a typically lively Winter mercato for the youth sector of Juventus. As is all too often the case, there were a flurry of deals late in the day, with one or two failing to materialise due…

Player Ratings Buffon – Was outfoxed for the opener but should have done much better for the second. Which was basically a long pass which didn’t exactly fly in, though it was moving; it bounced in. However, he did more than most…
Player Ratings Neto – A spectator until the final half hour horror show. And could do very little about either goal conceded. 6 Rugani – Was tested constantly by a very lively Atalanta offence and generally stood firm other than the odd misplaced…
