Did you see the game statistics? Cheesy I thought for a moment that I am looking at the wrong game. How is it possible that Juventus has 25% ball possession in their home stadium against Fiorentina? At second look I thought I missed an early red card or something, but no, it was a usual game and Fiorentina dominated the entire game, but wasn't good enough to score. Juventus is on a serious downtrend.
Juventus is very economical in movement, even to the point of thinking "ah, never mind, Juventus will catch up, ah never mind, Juventus will lose". However, after waiting eagerly for Fiorentina to score a goal, it turned out it didn't come. even until the match is over. This time, fortunately the opponent was Fiorentina, who were really annoying because they dominated the match but were unable to score a single goal.

Should I say:
"Just let Juventus play like it is, the important thing is that the result is a win."
or
"Could it be that Juventus' performance has improved a little, why is its performance going this way and that, its performance is even far from good for a club in the top 3 of Serie A."

Even Juventus was offside 5x, while Fiorentina only 1x.

Thanks for sharing this here and I quoted the post in whole as it makes sense to point out why I was bringing the statistics up and added a smiley.

I can't remember to be honest, but it must be a very long time ago that I saw a game where Juventus Turin played at home and had only 218 passes for the whole game.

Keep in mind that Juventus didn't play against Manchester City. This is ridiculous and it's quite telling. I would be very concerned as a fan and as someone who is in charge of the club. Whether that be the coach or the bosses or the owners or whoever, but this is not Juventus Turin as we know them.

So, finally a win for Juventus. This is a win for them after four matches not being able to get three points from. And I think they have played really well in this match. I believe Juventus actually should have scored more in this match. They were unlucky do not score more than once in this match. Actually, that did, Vlahovic scored but it was rolled offside. And the goalkeeper of Juventus was really good in this match. If he did not perform the way he did, it was certain that there was a big chance for Juventus to actually not win or even lose the match. I did expect Juventus to win but I did not expect the match to actually be so close. And it seems like Juventus has become so well at scoring from corners, credit goes to Federico Gatti, he scored 4 goals this season. So, I think it's actually the real experienced starting lineups deployed by Max Allegri.
