In the second half of this season, Juventus' performance surprisingly dropped drastically and I don't think there was a problem with their players being injured or not because since the start of the season Juventus had been experiencing such problems but their performance was fine, only in the second half of the season their performance dropped. drastic.
I think this is due to a lack of motivation in the Juventus team after they were unable to compete fiercely with Inter Milan in the race for the Scudetto this season.
What Thiago Motta showed with Bologna was quite surprising, they have had a fairly consistent performance since the start of the season.
If you look at the current competition, Juventus is the least favorite to finish in the top 4 with competition from Bologna and also AS Roma.
Started well on the first half season and leaded the top position standings awhile for several week later but on second half season Juventus performance dropping drastically. Loss points on many crucial matches and right now current standings position dropped to 3rd place with three points remaining from Milan and Juventus's gap points from AS Roma as 5th position standings try to finish on Champion League spot. I think Juventus's motivation for winning Scudetto in this season have been over after dropping many points left from Inter Milan more 17 points and its not chance yet for catching up Inter Milan points.
Juventus will face Lazio next match and their motivation how to secure three points for defending their top 3rd standings position to qualify Champion League next season.
