Gattuso: ‪“Allegri has deleted Instagram? No no, I won’t ever think about having that thing. I already receive too many insults. For me on phones green is to make a call and red is to hang up.”‬

Ronaldo dropped as Juventus' first choice free kick taker after 43 failed attempts.

Not sure why he was first choice to begin with considering Bernardeschi, Costa, Dybala and Pjanic are all superior on dead ball situations.

Juve have been all sorts of weird this season.

It's unbelievable that they're still unbeaten as their overall gameplay is sub par. Allegri is also finding it difficult to play both Dybala and Ronaldo together.

There are whispers that Juve might cash in on Dybala in the summer to raise funds for a world class CM and/or CF. They'd be all over Icardi but the problem is Wanda Nara, obvs.

Let's bid €150m for Dybala.

In all likelihood, if Juve do sell Dybala, it's between Man United and Real Madrid. Easy pickings. But never rule out PSG or City.

By the way, if Juve exit from the Ro16 of the UCL, that might be it for Allegri come the end of the season. Zidane or Mourinho? Although, paper-talk has him (Jose) closely linked to Real Madrid. Zidane would be who they'd want because Juve already have the players needed to challenge for the UCL.

With the talent and work rate Ronaldo has he could have been top notch at free kicks if his ego didn't get in the way and he didn't have to make taking free kicks some circus act.

Can't see Juventus go for Mourinho but Zidane looks like an obvious and sensible target, especially given his record in the CL they so desperately want to win.

Wouldn't rule out Sampdoria's Giampaolo either. He has has successfully resurrected the 4-3-1-2 formation (flat 3) which was last used to great success by Ancelotti during his time at Juventus, Chelsea and Milan in the the late 90s and 00s.

So much that other teams in Italy and the Bundesliga have recently started using it as well.

Even though he has experience managing elite clubs, he is very highly regarded in Italy where he is known for his efficiency and hyper-structured approach.
