Yes, this is inseparable from the sanctions they received last season, overall they actually performed quite well. These sanctions still continue to this day, because they are not allowed to appear in various competitions in Europe. But as you said, let's forget that, let last season be a lesson for them.
This season they performed well with 2 wins and one draw. I think their game is improving and that is a good thing for them in the future. Even though they still have a lot to improve, as time goes by, if they become more confident in themselves, I think they will find their true self again like before.
Under Allegri direction, Juventus is attempting to get past the nightmare of the previous season. Even more so now that the points deduction has been eliminated their recent results appear promising. The team should be vying for the Scudetto and belongs among the Champions League contenders. Although their performance was affected by internal problems the previous season this new season started off optimistic. However, the absence of notable transfers raises questions about their dedication to development. But it is still early, and in football unexpected things frequently happen.
