Juventus - 'The Old Lady'

Up to this point in the most prestigious tournament of Italian football, Juventus is the only team to have won all 6 points after the first 2 matches. Notably, Michele Di Gregorio is the only goalkeeper who has not had to pick the ball out of the net. A very impressive achievement.

Not only did they get the maximum score, the team nicknamed "The Old Lady" also performed a fairly coherent and extremely effective style of play, at least compared to recent seasons. Obviously, to achieve such an achievement, it is impossible not to mention the contribution of coach Thiago Motta.

Immediately after taking the hot seat, the strategist born in 1982 gradually carried out a "personnel revolution". Players who were not in coach Thiago Motta's plans were given the "green light" to leave, typically Wojciech Szczesny, Adrien Rabiot or Federico Chiesa.

Thanks to the support of the board of directors, the Brazilian strategist has had the services of a series of satisfactory new recruits. According to statistics, Juventus spent more than 200 million euros to bring in Douglas Luiz, Khephren Thuram, Juan Cabal, Pierre Kalulu, Nico Gonzalez, Michele Di Gregorio, Francisco Conceicao and Teun Koopmeiners.

Under the guidance of coach Thiago Motta, Juventus has been transformed. In the last two matches, the starting lineup of the "Old Lady" consisted of only players in their twenties. The two most experienced players, goalkeeper Michele Di Gregorio and center-back Gleison Bremer, are both under 27.

In short, the "young blood" both on the bench and on the field is helping Juventus revive strongly. Certainly, the immediate goal of coach Thiago Motta and his team is to compete for the Serie A championship with Inter Milan, AC Milan and Napoli. Don't forget, they have been empty-handed for 4 consecutive seasons (2020/2021 - 2023/2024)./.
