The Old Lady Speaks, Episode 116: Things get VAR-y interesting vs. Salernitana

Listen Later

58 minutes

In a week in which Juventus dropped its Champions League opener, it’s what happened over the weekend against Salernitana that still has people talking and leaving us wondering how things failed so badly.

On this week’s episode of The Old Lady Speaks Podcast, we discuss:

Takeaways from the week that was — including just how bad Serie A refereeing has become, how the heck VAR didn’t have access to the same cameras that broadcasters like Sky Italia and DAZN had, and why VAR hasn’t solved all of the problems we might have thought it would when it first came about.

Seriously, though ... how the heck did all that get missed against Salernitana?

But let’s not forget about Juventus’ performance against Salernitana after they fell behind 1-0. It was not good. Then it got worse when it was 2-0 — the kind of deficit Juve hasn’t faced at home against Serie A opposition since 2004. TWO-THOUSAND AND FOUR!

A question for the crew: What were you doing in 2004?

How the performance against Salernitana is just another example of how up and down and filled with inconsistencies Juventus’ season to date has been.

We turn our attention toward the Champions League — both what happened against Paris Saint-Germain and what is to come Wednesday night against Benfica.

We wrap thins up with a question: Is there any sort of confidence entering Benfica’s visit to Turin that Juve can actually get things done and get their first Champions League win?
