The Old Lady Speaks, Episode 213: Juventus let one slip away against Napoli

The first game of March brought a better team performance for Max Allegri and Juventus, but the Bianconeri’s finishing let them down mightily in a loss to Napoli that has extended a six-game run with very few points earned.

On Episode 213 of The Old Lady Speaks Podcast, we discuss:

• Takeaways from the loss to Napoli — how it was a little odd to see Joseph Nonge subbed immediately out after he gave up the penalty late in the second half, how Fabio Miretti was a quite pleasant surprise against Napoli, and how Juve’s defense certainly fell asleep
• Juventus’ finishing against Napoli ... NOT VERY GOOD!
• So as much as people will blame Joseph Nonge, it’s the finishing in front of goal why Juventus didn’t win on Sunday night, right?
• Juventus executed their plan against Napoli quite well. It was the execution of shots in front of goal that let the team down.
• Twitter questions — including how we are feeling and what adult beverage(s) we might turn to after a game like that one, if Allegri was right to sub off Joseph Nonge right after he committed the game-changing foul in the penalty area, and how will the starting lineup that was used against Napoli will be looked upon.
