Juventus' attack line this season is a bit dull and not as sharp as last season. The reason is that until week 7, Juventus was only able to score 10 goals, and this record is certainly smaller than other top Serie A teams. So it is clear that with this, Juventus must find a way to sharpen its attack line again. Maybe in order to improve Juventus' attack line, it's not just the attackers who need to be improved, but Juventus also needs to improve the wingers and midfielders. Because if Juventus does not improve this position more optimally, I am sure Juventus' attack line will definitely remain the same as now. Apart from that, from the news I read, Pogba reportedly won the appeal of the doping case against him. As a result of winning the appeal, Pogba's sentence was shortened to just 18 months.

Finally, Pogba's appeal was accepted and the threat of a 4 year ban from playing was canceled and was only 18 months.

This is certainly very good news for Juventus. Because before Pogba was hit by this case, he contributed a lot to Juventus' midfield. So with the news that Pogba's sentence has been shortened, surely in the next few months Pogba will be able to return to playing with Juventus. So this will definitely make Juventus' midfield even better. And reportedly Pogba could return to playing again early next year.

Motta as the head coach must have realized the shortcomings in the team and of course will fix the problems in his attack line to be sharper in every match because for now Dusan as a machine is not very effective, he has only scored 6 goals, half of which came from penalties in all competitions played by Juventus. but on the positive side the old lady has a solid defense in Serie A from 7 matches only conceding 1 goal.
I am sure that with time Motta will be able to fix a few of those shortcomings with his magic hands.
And regarding Paul Pogba I think the news is old because from what I have read recently Juventus plans to terminate the player's contract there are rumors that Pogba will move to the French league but with his current condition and age I am not sure he can display the game like before.

Yes, if you look at the quality of the current Juventus coach (Thiago Motta), you could say he is quite a great coach. So he certainly knows more about Juventus' current shortcomings, but maybe Motta needs time and a good strategy to be able to fix all the problems that exist at Juventus. Therefore, sooner or later Juventus' performance will definitely return to normal and good again. Apart from that, I personally would be quite regretful if for example Pogba really moved from Juventus, because in essence Juventus definitely needs Pogba's abilities. But what can you do, if for example Pogba is no longer a priority at Juventus. The reason is that from the news circulating, it seems that Motta will not include Pogba in the Juventus squad. Because if you look deeper, Juventus currently has quite good midfielders too. One of these players is Douglas Luiz and also Thuram. Maybe because of that, Pogba's position will most likely be marginalized at Juventus. However, we need to remember again, the news currently circulating is just rumors. So it is very likely that Pogba can still be retained by Juventus, perhaps with several policies such as reducing his salary. The reason is that it cannot be denied that Pogba's salary at Juventus is quite large. So if Juventus keeps him, maybe Pogba's salary will be reduced.
