For Juventus, their big signings in past transfer windows have looked like they've paid off handsomely. They have won 2 consecutive games, 5 consecutive games in all competitions, and won 4 of them. From the current situation, whether from the operation of the team's tactical system or from the perspective of the players' mental morale, Allegri's team has completely bid farewell to the downturn at the beginning of the season and is fully on track. Especially given the team's excellent quality of reinforcements, this is likely to be a turning point for Juventus to return to the top.
In this season's league, under the leadership of Allegri, the team has won 13 of the 24 games, and the overall winning rate is not ideal, only 54.2%. However, this was largely dragged down by the downturn at the beginning of the season. In the league table, Juventus have promoted themselves to fourth place, with only eight points left from the top team in one more game. With more than a dozen rounds of the league remaining, such a gap is not an insurmountable chasm. Because of their excellent form during this time, Juventus has already put pressure on their competitors. Moreover, in the Coppa Italia, Juventus has also reached the final four, which is the least difficult for Juventus compared to the league and Champions League competitions.
From the technical and tactical level of the team, the arrival of Vlahović has an immediate effect on the team. When the tall centre-forward was on the pitch, he was the perfect choice for the team's frontcourt fulcrum. With players able to stand in the centre position, the team's offense is noticeably much smoother. In addition to the role of standing on the pile, Vlahović's individual combat ability is also quite outstanding. When the side is in a counterattack posture and the opponent is unstable, Vlahovic, who is in a state of ball at his feet, is full of power, and he can use the delicate foot technique to directly break through the opponent's defense line one-on-one, showing very good mobility. At the same time, Vlahović's presence directly activates Dybala and Morata. In the last 2 games, Vlahović has scored 1 goal, averaging 7.59 points per game, Dybala contributed 1 goal and 1 assist, and Morata also completed 1 assist. It is foreseeable that when The Younger Chiesa returns from injury next season, Juventus' new "trident" will have a higher standard.
In addition, the performance of the back line to concede only one goal in 2 games is also quite valuable. The two veterans, Chiellini and Bonucci, played as well and steadily as always. In these two games, the two players played one each, and the score of the game was above 7 points. However, overall, due to the influence of age factors, the two have indeed had a more obvious decline from their peak state. For Juventus, in the case of the third-tier battle in the second half of the season, how to ensure the physical fitness of the two veteran players is a key issue that Allegri needs to focus on. Perhaps in less important games, Allegri should have given Rougani more playing time. This season, the 27-year-old Italian centre-back has only made six appearances in the league, with a total of 465 minutes and an average of 77.5 minutes per game, making the defence solid.
Relatively speaking, the "needle of the sea god" on the Juventus back line is none other than De Ligt. This season, the 22-year-old Dutch centre-back has made 19 league appearances and contributed one goal, averaging 6.81 points per game, and five appearances in the Champions League, averaging 6.84 points per game. Whether it's partner Chiellini or Bonucci, De Ligt has perfectly interpreted his role. He averaged 2.7 successful headers per game, making him the most capable player in the team and 4.2 returns. In terms of defensive grabs, De Ligt has also done a very good job, averaging 3 clearances per game. However, as a player under the banner of Raiola, De Ligt seems to be moving in a direction that is less and less worrying for the team. His contract with the team is still more than 2 years away from expiring, but it looks like it has even entered the countdown to leaving the team.
According to slow motion, de Ligt, who is worth 65 million euros at the behest of Raiola, has decided to transfer and leave the team at the end of the season, according to slow motion. It is reported that De Ligt's next home is likely to be "two choices", produced among the two giants of Chelsea and Barca. Among them, Chelsea are in urgent need of introducing high-level players as replacements because the contract extension of the two main centre-backs is not going well, while Barca hopes to continue to strengthen the back line after completing the reinforcements in the front. It is reported that if De Ligt leaves the team, then Juventus will try to sign Rudiger. However, the German centre-back is hoping for a weekly salary of £200,000, even higher than De Ligt's salary in the team. This requires a good trade-off on the part of the team.
