Juventus have had a disastrous 2022 as far as Big Clubs go.
There are no good times to bury bad news if the bad news is bad enough. Juventus capped off a miserable 2022 with the resignation of the club’s entire board of directors at the end of November, the latest in a steady fine rain of of bad news which has quietly soaked the club since the middle of March.
But while there were reasons to believe that Juventus had weaknesses, they’d been unbeaten in Serie A since the end of November going into their return leg against the eventual semi-finalists. They’d sailed through their group stage with five wins out of six. It wasn’t the levels that the club had been reaching a few years ago, but it was a definite improvement on their start.
On the pitch, this has been a strange season for the club. A slow start in Serie A saw them win just three of their first nine league games, dropping to eighth place in the table as a result, but this was nothing in comparison with their escapades in the Champions League, in which they won just won of their six group matches and ended up 11 points adrift of group qualifiers Benfica and PSG.
