According to Gazzetta, maintaining the initial frantic pace is proving challenging. It`s almost as if there are two different Juventuses. This current iteration is distinct from Thiago Motta`s approach. While it`s worth noting they faced a disorganized and hesitant Lecce, Tudor has effectively banished the word “horizontal” from the Bianconeri`s footballing dictionary.
The team now prioritizes attacking the opponent`s goal with quick, vertical passing, amassing 831 touches in a fast-paced manner, incorporating previously unseen runs and intricate plays. Juventus displays renewed belief, engaging in high pressing and aggressive ball recovery.
Yildiz has transitioned into a number 10 role, taking initiative on the flanks instead of passively waiting for passes in static defensive setups. He now functions as a dynamic, all-encompassing playmaker, proving difficult to contain. Nico on the right flank blends selfless play with tactical effectiveness, excelling on the wing by combining speed and strategic positioning. This tactical shift allows Koopmeiners to occupy the second attacking midfielder slot, rediscovering his preferred spacing and the tactical atmosphere reminiscent of Atalanta. His return to form and goal-scoring raises the question: does Tudor possess miraculous healing abilities?
