I am getting very anxious after yet another defeat to Uninese - it is like 2011 all over again!

and that's without mentioning the Blades!

ha a win at last, that's the double over Juve this season!

I would love it if we did 3 on the spin and beat Juve yet again!

I might even plan to see a Juve game this year, in all the games I have seen Juve live they have never won a game. Last season I went to see Juve play Roma when Totti got the great goal.

How I love to see Juve fail:D 

3!!! Why not make it 4?

Joking apart, that first game could be very important for the whole season. Our team is young but it only really needs a confidence boost and good things could happen this season. A win against Juve would be a perfect start.

Have been watching a bit of the warm up games this pre-season. Samp look pretty good. Still think they could do with a playmaker though. Juve haven't really got going, could be a good time to play them.

I also have a feeling we could see a Samp style last minute biggish name signing towards the end of the transfer window.

I hope you are right and a major signing happens before the first game with Juve, I am a bit concerned that we are light upfront with Icardi's transfer to Inter. I saw the highlights of the game with OM at the weekend and although delighted to score four, we know it was only a friendly. Sere A will be a very different kettle of fish for sure!

What score was it against Marseille?

We are light upfront your right. Gabbiadini is a future full International IMHO. I'm not much of a fan of Eder to be honest but he seems to be working well with Gabbiadini so we'll have to see where that goes. Pozzi is Pozzi, can score goals but is ultimately nothing spectacular and Sansone is a mediocre back up at best.

It doesn't take a genius to work out that if one of Gabb or Eder gets injured we could be in serious trouble for goals. A last minute signing looks on the cards. I think we like to wait till the last minute to pick up a bargain or two from desperate clubs trying to offload quickly.

If the game against Juve is anything to go by, our forward line is even worse than I thought! It could be a long season.
