Zinedine Zidane has been a part-time player this year, alternating flashes of brilliance with long spells of utter darkness. Inzaghi, once dubbed SuperPippo, seems to have lost most of his magical powers, except the ability to fall over and win penalties. Ancelotti isn't the answer either. He is a bright, young manager, but he is hardly a tactical savant. And yet, they continue to win.
Few teams are more cohesive as a unit.
Fewer still defend better and none can beat you in so many different ways. I don't know if it's true, after all, refereeing bias is always a convenient refuge for coming up short. And I refuse to believe that there is some kind of malevolent pro-Juve conspiracy. But it's difficult to deny that Juventus hasn't exactly been hurt by referees over the past few years either. Still, the club's ability to overcome adversity and the lackluster play of its star performers is probably second to none.
