The Old Lady Speaks, Episode 125: Juventus might actually be back

Following Sunday’s win over Lazio, Juventus has not lost a Serie A game in over a month and head into the World Cup break on a six-game winning streak that has put them into third place in the league table. On this week’s episode of The Old Lady Speaks Podcast, we discuss: Takeaways from the week that was — including Juventus is playing like a good team again, Arek Milik is becoming a Mario Mandzukic 2.0 kind of striker who does the dirty work and Moise Kean has been on a tear just when a lot of people were ready to throw him to the side. We take a brief look at Juventus’ win over Hellas Verona. Juventus beat Hellas Verona and that’s all we’re going to say about that. (We said it was brief, people!) A much more in-depth kind of look at Juventus’ win over Lazio that saw Max Allegri’s squad jump up into third place with their sixth straight victory. Juventus’ counterattacking style has had a little more bite to it in recent weeks — except against Hellas — and that’s starting to pay off well. We look at what’s changed for Juventus from the early months of the season when things weren’t going well to now when they’re going much better. Twitter questions — including what happens to Weston McKennie during the January transfer window, is the World Cup break a good or a bad thing for Juventus, if we trust Juve to keep this form going come the new year, what will be key for Juve to keep this run going when games resume in January and how happy are we that Juve’s suddenly in third place.
