UCL Last 16: Celtic v Juventus Chat

Don't know much about this Juventus team but after watching their performance against chelsea and some recent highlights i would be lying if i said it's not made me worried about these games.

 

Have the Gary Hooper to Juve rumors been spread in Italy?


Im sure he would be available for somewhere around 25mil :icon_mrgreen:

 

Yes

 

Lets Fcking have it!!!!

I cannot wait for this, wish I could sleep til February, and get to this game.

Juve are a good side but this should be an interesting tie I fancy is to run them real close.

 

my big worry is their movement up front ,a lot of their attacks are played in low between goalie and defense and we dont deal very well with this ,the midfield support attacks very well ,i think we should sit in and counter them like we did against barca ,its more important not to concede a goal at home in the first game,1 nil i think would suit us perfect with a 2 1 defeat acceptable to go through.

 

We are Glasgow Celtic whilst other teams "dont do walking away" we simply do not just make up the numbers. Bring on Juve I relish the underdog label.

 

Of course we can, anything can happen.

 

2000

 

No reason to fear anybody. If we go into this injury free, it is very doable. Would * love to be the only British team in the last 8! :icon_mrgreen:....think Utd will beat Real right enough.

 

Why not?

I think we can

 

Essential we get a good result at home, believe we can beat this mob.

 

Watching the highlights of them against shaktar in Italy. Shaktar gave them an absolute hammering and were unlucky to only get a point. The quality of serie a has really fallen in recent in years and juventus' dominance of the league is not as fair a reflection of their quality as it would have been in the past. Yes they beat Chelsea,(a team that were on the verge of sacking their manager) but we beat barca, they beat shaktar away but we beat spartak away. Nothing to fear against them, I think we might just edge it.

 

I'm considering going to this but the things being told about the dangers are seriously making me think twice. Especially with the stories I've heard about Celtic fans being hit with frozen bottles of water last time.

 

Disappointed I have to say, really fancied a trip to Spain, France or Germany, travel wise, after Manchester, it's probably the pishest draw we could have got.

I know 2 guys that went over to Turin for the game in 2000 and they said the cops were complete and utter *, followed them everywhere and stopped places serving them alcohol.

I'm gonna go anyway.

 

No doubt we'll go out in some sort of heart breaking fashion...usual thing to happen

 

I'd love to be ahead after the home game. 1-0 please. Can't see it though maybe a 2-1.. * maybe another 4-3 lol

 

Juventus and Bayern were the only teams that I wanted to avoid,but we will play like lions I`m sure!

 

Been reading that real Juventus forum through Google Chrome which translates automatically. They generally say nice things and are respectful.

One guy stuck up for Rangers a bit and said we only wanted them down so we could win all the titles without them there.....but then one said that it didn't matter because "they got what they deserved" :icon_mrgreen:

Kayal was saying he has great respect for them and was looking forward to the games and a few pointed out he's a good player.

"Always loved the green and white"...."not to be underestimated"....."great team"...."one of the best coaches in European emerging markets"......"I really like Celtic. There will be two good games".

Wish it was next week.....we've got * ages to wait.

 

Juventus this year has shown many performances that were brilliant, but also some were there game was frozen

 

if the italian newspaper stories are true then juve will have llorente and drogba by the time we face them
