Lele Adani, a former defender and now a commentator for [**La Domenica Sportiva**](https://www.calciomercato.com/news/adani-la-juventus-piu-brutta-della-stagione-in-attacco-fa-solo-u-94168), recently shared his thoughts on the current state of Juventus, describing their performance as the worst of the season. He pointed out a significant decline in their defensive capabilities compared to earlier in the season, stating that their play has become “monothematic,” which is evident in their attacking strategies.
Adani highlighted critical errors in recent matches, particularly focusing on Kalulu’s mistake leading to the first goal conceded and a similar lapse during the second goal, reminiscent of their earlier match against Lecce. He stated, “There is a big mistake by Kalulu on the first goal, and on the second goal, there is a reading error that we also saw against Lecce when they conceded the equalizer.”
He noted that Juventus’s offensive play has become overly reliant on Francisco Conceição, who often finds himself in one-on-one situations. “In attack, Juventus is doing only one thing: passing the ball to Conceição and letting him go one-on-one,” Adani explained. He added that while the team tends to play predominantly down the wings, they have started to concede more opportunities than they did at the beginning of the season.
Adani remarked, “At this moment, Juventus is at a crossroads. They have a right and shared idea that is being trained and guiding all players toward a unified direction—the coach’s vision. However, they are currently conceding more and making mistakes in key moments.”
He also acknowledged that Juventus has transformed significantly since facing Parma, becoming the youngest team in the league. “After facing Parma, Juventus is now the youngest team in the league,” he noted. Adani pointed out that injuries have severely affected their squad depth, mentioning players like Cambiaso and Bremer being unavailable, along with Douglas Luiz and Nico. He expressed concern about their striker situation: “If Vlahovic hadn’t returned, they would have been without a center forward again.”
In conclusion, Adani stated that Juventus is on a long-term path toward achieving results but emphasized that they are still far from reaching their goals. “Juventus is on a journey that needs to bring results in the long term, but we are still far away,” he said. Adani’s insights reflect both concern and hope for the team’s future as they navigate through this challenging period.
