    2024/11/04
    Coming off a sub-par showing against one of Serie A’s new clubs, Juventus were able to right the ship with a much-needed win over Udinese that saw some positives take place after some worrying signs earlier in the week.

Are we starting to worry about Dusan Vlahovic’s lack of consistent goal scoring form again? Twitter questions — including what things might look like when things fully click on with Teun Koopmeiners and the rest of the midfield, why hasn’t Thiago Motta entrusted a young player to potentially back up Dusan Vlahovic like he’s done with other players on the roster, and just how much of a priority is a signing in centrel defense come the January transfer window.

  • The Old Lady Speaks, Episode 255: The Derby d’Italia was a complete roller coaster ride
    2024/10/28
    It was a wild and crazy Sunday night at the San Siro both for good and the bad, with Juventus and Inter playing out one of the highest-scoring outings in a 4-4 Derby d’Italia draw that saw Kenan Yildiz score a pair of second-half goals off the bench to earn his team a point. On Episode 255 of The Old Lady Speaks Podcast, we discuss: Takeaways from Juventus’ draw with Inter (mostly because we don’t need to talk a whole lot about what happened against Stuttgart earlier in the week). What went wrong for Juventus in the Derby d’Italia. What went right for Juventus in the Derby d’Italia. You know, like Kenan Yildiz being great. Juventus’ defense was a mess against Inter. We know they miss Bremer after his season-ending knee injury, but is this the kind of game that just magnifies that notion? More defense talk: Is there reason to be seriously concerned about Danilo’s form? A shoutout from the loss to Stuttgart for Mattia Perin, who deserved none of that. Twitter questions — including just how possible it would be for Juventus to upgrade the defense in January, what can be done to keep the defense from struggling between now and January, and if it’s time for Danilo to start thinking about a post-Juventus world.

    2024/10/21
    Juventus returned from the international break over the weekend, and while it wasn’t the best performance they were able to get three points in a game against Lazio in which they were far from being full strength. On Episode 254 of The Old Lady Speaks Podcast, we discuss: Takeaways from Juventus’ 1-0 win over Lazio on Satudday. A larger discussion on the performance against Lazio — what went right, what went wrong, and how much did the injury situation truly impact what Juve could or couldn’t do. What’s up with Douglas Luiz to start his Juventus career? Cristiano Giuntoli has made it clear: there’s no room for Paul Pogba at Juventus — and that’s even after the French midfielder went on a media blitz following his doping suspension being reduced. Twitter questions — including Douglas Luiz being a bad transfer, what is preventing Timothy Weah from being an effective player at Juventus, and who could be a good backup for Dusan Vlahovic if said back was going to be a young Italian striker.

    2024/10/14
    As we sit here in the middle of another international break, we wait for Juventus to get going again. But the worry is that when they return to action, the squad Thiago Motta will have at his disposal is going to be far from full strength. On Episode 253 of The Old Lady Speaks Podcast, we discuss: The injuries are starting to pile up for Thiago Motta and Juventus, with Teun Koopmeiners’ cracked rib now the most recent worry ahead of the return from the international break. The most notable of all the recent injuries involves the likely season-ending torn ACL for Gleison Bremer. Could an old foe who used to wear an Inter jersey suddenly become an option for Juventus in January? Juventus’ first three games out of the international break — against Lazio, Stuttgart and Inter at the San Siro — are all pretty big ones. We take a look at what’s to come. Twitter questions — including what is going on with Juventus and the lack of a (paid) shirt sponsor after the relationship with Jeep was ended at the end of last season.

  • The Old Lady Speaks, Episode 252: Juventus deliver again in the Champions League
    2024/10/07
    In one of the more thrilling comeback wins in recent memory, Juventus had quite the night in Germany as they picked up their second straight win to open play in the new league phase of the Champions League. On Episode 252 of The Old Lady Speaks Podcast, we discuss: (Please note that due to scheduling conflicts, we recorded this before Juventus’ game against Cagliari on Sunday.) Takeaways from Juventus’ wild Champions League win over RB Leipzig and the week that was. The win over Leipzig showed just how much Thiago Motta has been able to improve this side for the better despite the 2024-25 season being just two months old. The one true downer about the Leipzig game was the injury to Bremer, who looks set to miss the remainder of the season after tearing the ACL in his left knee. Paul Pogba will reportedly have his doping suspension reduced from four years to 18 months, meaning he’s eligible to return to Juventus in March. If that does actually happens still remains to be seen. You can follow us — or send us questions — on Twitter @JuventusNation or on Facebook as well as the Fans First Sports Network @FansFirstSN.
