    Episode 258: The Pogba 2.0 era is officially over at Juventus

    The expected has finally happened, as Juventus announced that they have agreed to part ways with Paul Pogba by mutual consent in the aftermath of his doping suspension being reduced from four years to 18 months. On Episode 258 of The Old Lady Speaks Podcast, we discuss: The Friday news dump we all expected at some point: Juventus and Paul Pogba have agree to mutually terminate his contract after his doping suspension was reduced from four years to 18 months. Before the Pogba news dropped, Juventus got more bad news on the injury front, with fullback Juan Cabal suffering a torn ACL on international duty with Colombia. Juventus’ first game out of the international break is the second trip to San Siro in a little over a month, as Thiago Motta’s squad will look to take the momentum of two straight wins into the final stretch of the 2024 calendar year. Questions for the crew — including what our fondest memories of Pogba at Juventus, what the long-term vision for young midfielders like Nicolo Fagioli and Fabio Miretti might be, what’s stopping Dusan Vlahovic from having a bigger impact at Juventus and what would be the preferred January transfers be.

    Episode 257: Juventus head into the break with some wind in their sails

    A win over Torino in the first Derby della Mole of the 2024-25 season and a second straight win in Serie A gave Juventus some much-needed momentum heading into the November international break. On Episode 257 of The Old Lady Speaks Podcast, we discuss: Takeaways from the Juventus week that was. Thoughts on Juventus’ win over Torino in the Derby della Mole. As Dusan Vlahovic continues to be an enigma at the top of Juve’s attack, the other forwards on Thiago Motta’s roster have started to hit a rich vein of form and carried the goal scoring load of late. Manuel Locatelli is back to being good again. Andrea Cambiaso continues to be one of Juventus’ best players this season. The new-look Champions League has the “league phase” at its midway point. So how are Juventus looking knowing that there still a good number of big fixtures remaining? Twitter questions — including Moise Kean’s red-hot start to life at Fiorentina, if it’s better to have one or two big-time goal scorers or if it’s better to have a much more balanced outlay of goals, and what are the least and most concerning things about the state of Juventus as we head into the November international break.

    Episode 256: Juventus get back on track in Udine

    Coming off a sub-par showing against one of Serie A’s new clubs, Juventus were able to right the ship with a much-needed win over Udinese that saw some positives take place after some worrying signs earlier in the week. On Episode 256 of The Old Lady Speaks Podcast, we discuss: Takeaways from the week that was. Thoughts on Juventus’ win over Udinese, which was a much more enjoyable watch tnan Juve’s 2-2 draw with Parma earlier in the week. The improving form of midfielders like Manuel Locatelli and Khephren Thuram. The not-so-improving form of Juve captain Danilo. Are we starting to worry about Dusan Vlahovic’s lack of consistent goal scoring form again? Twitter questions — including what things might look like when things fully click on with Teun Koopmeiners and the rest of the midfield, why hasn’t Thiago Motta entrusted a young player to potentially back up Dusan Vlahovic like he’s done with other players on the roster, and just how much of a priority is a signing in centrel defense come the January transfer window.

    Episode 255: The Derby d’Italia was a complete roller coaster ride

    It was a wild and crazy Sunday night at the San Siro both for good and the bad, with Juventus and Inter playing out one of the highest-scoring outings in a 4-4 Derby d’Italia draw that saw Kenan Yildiz score a pair of second-half goals off the bench to earn his team a point. On Episode 255 of The Old Lady Speaks Podcast, we discuss: Takeaways from Juventus’ draw with Inter (mostly because we don’t need to talk a whole lot about what happened against Stuttgart earlier in the week). What went wrong for Juventus in the Derby d’Italia. What went right for Juventus in the Derby d’Italia. You know, like Kenan Yildiz being great. Juventus’ defense was a mess against Inter. We know they miss Bremer after his season-ending knee injury, but is this the kind of game that just magnifies that notion? More defense talk: Is there reason to be seriously concerned about Danilo’s form? A shoutout from the loss to Stuttgart for Mattia Perin, who deserved none of that. Twitter questions — including just how possible it would be for Juventus to upgrade the defense in January, what can be done to keep the defense from struggling between now and January, and if it’s time for Danilo to start thinking about a post-Juventus world.

    Episode 254: Juve begin big October stretch with slim win

    Juventus returned from the international break over the weekend, and while it wasn’t the best performance they were able to get three points in a game against Lazio in which they were far from being full strength. On Episode 254 of The Old Lady Speaks Podcast, we discuss: Takeaways from Juventus’ 1-0 win over Lazio on Satudday. A larger discussion on the performance against Lazio — what went right, what went wrong, and how much did the injury situation truly impact what Juve could or couldn’t do. What’s up with Douglas Luiz to start his Juventus career? Cristiano Giuntoli has made it clear: there’s no room for Paul Pogba at Juventus — and that’s even after the French midfielder went on a media blitz following his doping suspension being reduced. Twitter questions — including Douglas Luiz being a bad transfer, what is preventing Timothy Weah from being an effective player at Juventus, and who could be a good backup for Dusan Vlahovic if said back was going to be a young Italian striker.

    Episode 253: Juve’s injuries pile up as big October stretch arrives

    As we sit here in the middle of another international break, we wait for Juventus to get going again. But the worry is that when they return to action, the squad Thiago Motta will have at his disposal is going to be far from full strength. On Episode 253 of The Old Lady Speaks Podcast, we discuss: The injuries are starting to pile up for Thiago Motta and Juventus, with Teun Koopmeiners’ cracked rib now the most recent worry ahead of the return from the international break. The most notable of all the recent injuries involves the likely season-ending torn ACL for Gleison Bremer. Could an old foe who used to wear an Inter jersey suddenly become an option for Juventus in January? Juventus’ first three games out of the international break — against Lazio, Stuttgart and Inter at the San Siro — are all pretty big ones. We take a look at what’s to come. Twitter questions — including what is going on with Juventus and the lack of a (paid) shirt sponsor after the relationship with Jeep was ended at the end of last season.

    Episode 252: Juventus deliver again in the Champions League

    In one of the more thrilling comeback wins in recent memory, Juventus had quite the night in Germany as they picked up their second straight win to open play in the new league phase of the Champions League. On Episode 252 of The Old Lady Speaks Podcast, we discuss: (Please note that due to scheduling conflicts, we recorded this before Juventus’ game against Cagliari on Sunday.) Takeaways from Juventus’ wild Champions League win over RB Leipzig and the week that was. The win over Leipzig showed just how much Thiago Motta has been able to improve this side for the better despite the 2024-25 season being just two months old. The one true downer about the Leipzig game was the injury to Bremer, who looks set to miss the remainder of the season after tearing the ACL in his left knee. Paul Pogba will reportedly have his doping suspension reduced from four years to 18 months, meaning he’s eligible to return to Juventus in March. If that does actually happens still remains to be seen. You can follow us — or send us questions — on Twitter @JuventusNation or on Facebook as well as the Fans First Sports Network @FansFirstSN.

    Episode 251: Juventus’ scoreless streak is a thing of the past

    Juventus’ goal drought in Serie A is officially over, with Saturday night’s win over Genoa bringing a second-half performance that saw some nice goals and a much-needed brace for Dusan Vlahovic. On Episode 251 of The Old Lady Speaks Podcast, we discuss: Takeaways from Juventus’ win over Genoa ... other than the simple fact that goals were scored once again when facing Italian opposition. Juventus got their first win in four league games after three straight scoreless draws. So what changed against Genoa — especially in the second half? How much did Thiago Motta starting to find a tactical alternative to his original plan help quell a little of any potential concerns about the attack? How much did Dusan Vlahovic need a game like this? By the way, Juventus’ defense has been pretty good so far this season. Twitter questions — including what you think made Juventus’ second half so good against Genoa, what the preferred backline and midfield right now, and what the best starting lineup for a true Big Match should be.
