The old saying 'strikers win u games defences win u championships' has always been Juve in a nutshell. Hence why they are the most successful club in Italy. they will also go close to winning the Champions league IMO this year.

From the Juve games I've seen this year, it's evident that every single mid-lower table team that we are going to come up against will stick every player behind the ball and try to hit us on the counter.

Won't make for good viewing most of the time but if we keep getting the results then no reason to complain.

We all saw the two games against a better team in Lazio, who tried to play their normal game against us, got torn apart.

Cant really blame the weaker teams can you when they play against the teams with firepower.

If Juve win again this year it will be because of their back line which just quietly has 4 current NT players plus Ogbonna when needed and Caceres when needed.

Quality squad - will make the CL semi's (I hope) and that might see them take their eye off the ball in the domestic comp a bit.

Of course not. Would be silly to do it otherwise and leave yourself exposed. They are there to get points to reach their objectives too. As I said previously, it's something Juve have to deal with and find ways around.

Can see it happening that Serie A doesn't get shown at all this season.

Why make the announcement before the final details were settled?

Idiots Fox Sports and also Rai if they're the ones holding up negotiations.

Adam Peacock was on 5RTI on Saturday and confirmed it was an issue with MP & Silva, the Australian rights holders. Hoping it is sorted out after the international break.

Yes, heard Peacock.

Greed. Hope it's sorted.

Peacock has been saying that since the first week of games got canned.

Can always have hope, but wouldn't put any money on it.
