In the second half of this match they looked like they wanted to be open and this is where their problem lies.
Precisely with their open game being one of the boomerangs in this match, they let their defense line not be too tightly guarded like in the first half which made 3 goals they had to accept in the second half.
This is something that is unexpected but still something that is understandable considering this is Serie A.
It's like that, I was surprised by the result shown by Roma, they lost very badly, well, but it's like they say, they have to recover and get ahead, the truth is I think Mou tried to put a team much more focused on the attack and wanted to have this formation but I think it's not the right one, the defense line looked very fragile and didn't have the right consistency, at this point they shouldn't lose anymore, I see Milan AC very strong and I don't know but they should react because another loss like This and it could mean very bad things for Mou and his team, I think what happened was a very bad decision in the change of strategy, and for more, it is an Italian team, its strong point has always been the defense.
Well, and at the press conference, one of Mou's words was:
"We had a good chance at the start with Dybala who was our best player tonight. But Udinese... every time they countered either they created a chance or they scored."
Mourinho added: "The referee? When you lose 4-0 you don't talk about the referee. I prefer to lose a game 4-0 rather than four games 1-0. This was ugly, both for us and the fans. But it's life, and we move on."
Also one of the words that I liked about this bitter pill was that he preferred to lose under such a wide score than to lose 4 games, because they have started the season with a very good run, but like everything in football things sometimes It doesn't go well and that gives them a clear message, that they have to raise the level more to be at the level of the best.

I like what Mou said in this press conference because indeed in this case he also realizes what he has to improve to make Roma bounce back, but is it true that with this he will return to using the same formation as 3-4-2-1 because if they wanted to attack maybe it would be better to put more pressure with 4-3-3 or maybe by putting pressure on 3-5-2 because in my opinion when you want to attack with a 3-4-2-1 formation, this is definitely enough. burden the defenders when receiving a quick counterattack.
If obviously a guy like Mou wanted to try his luck with the formation he put in, perhaps to be much more focused on attack, the 4-3-3 is a good and very conservative formation, it has a lot to offer, but we know that the League Italiana is more focused on defense, it is their main characteristic, their style of football and since they know very well what their vulnerabilities could be, they go there, and clearly if you put a line of 3 in defense it means that they will be looking to advance lines to make the team more offensive and a counterattack could be deadly, it's something they couldn't stand if at least one defender makes a mistake, there would be a gap.
Juventus have long had problems not only within the team but also in the coaching staff. Juventus now reminds me Manchester United, who have exactly the same problems. It's just that times are changing and idols are also failing. No one would have guessed that Napoli would now be at the top of the standings and generally play better than all the other Serie A clubs. It certainly used to be Juventus, but their time has passed.
It's all about momentum. that reminds me with leicester city from EPL. Juventus's performance seems to be the worst among all of big clubs in serie A. Allegri must become the reason why juventus has a very bad performance like that. So, if juventus keep loosing in the upcoming matches and still earn zero points and no choice for juventus rather than staying away to compete with another club to be the number 1 at the end of season.
It must be a shame for the club like juventus to give a very bad performance like that. I can't even believe if we are seeing another MU in seria A lol
Well, there is something here that is very logical, the analogy is very accurate with respect to Manchester, if we take into account that Juve is in similar problems as MU, we can put in context that when there is at least 1 player who has problems with all kinds (more than all personal problems) affect a team a lot, and that makes the environment disturb all the harmony that can develop, every team goes through bad times (CR7 is already beginning to recover from his losing streak) and it is more difficult to get a player forward when he has a very low morale, that is something that must be taken into account, therefore if it affects a whole team.

It looks like Manchester United's problems have been going on for a long time while Juventus' problems have only happened in the last few seasons, but this season it seems to be getting worse. Competition in Serie A is not as competitive as in the English Premier League, so Juventus should be able to overcome this problem quickly. They just need to change to a better coach, if this is Chelsea I'm sure it won't take long to sack the coach who has failed. I just didn't think that Juventus officials would still be able to give time to Allegri who has clearly failed to build a team, no problem with Allegri who has a good record in the past and also has a long contract at this moment. But if Allegri is no longer able to shape the team for the better then it will be useless to maintain it, it would be better to lose money to get back the lost achievements.
Currently Juventus position seems to be the same as Manchester United's position a few seasons ago because Serie A has started to be competitive with many teams that are developing and have equal quality, making Juventus even more difficult at this time. .
and it's true that I think the fault is with coach Allegri, maybe not because he doesn't fit in with the Juventus players anymore, unlike a few seasons ago when he was very successful at Juventus.
it is now rumored that Allegri will be replaced soon and there are several quality coaches who are starting to be linked with Juventus.
The problem with Juventus is that the bond between the players in the squad is weak. Last season we saw that their attack was not strong enough. This season Allegri has brought in DI Maria and Pogba to bolster his attack. But none of them are regular scorers or playmakers. They picked the wrong player. It is the fault of coach Allegri. He did not understand the weakness of his team. And could not select the right players to strengthen the weak points. This is why Juventus' performances are now completely erratic and weak. Juventus is now in eighth place in the points table.
Yes, what happens is that Di Maria is an attacker who can last at least 10-15 minutes giving everything, and after that his physique does not allow him to have much resistance and strength, this is something that can be taken into account to that Allegri has considered it, I know Di Maria a lot how he plays because I have always seen him play with the Argentine team, I have even seen him play live and direct and his technique is exquisite, of course in the Argentine team he has a lot of help, Messi, Dybala, among other things, for that reason is that I think it was a mistake, but not because of the player but because he knew how to take advantage of his intervals of time where he explodes with everything.
