Don't expect Conte to give a shit about friendlies
Before the Euro, he led Italy to some batterings against Belgium (3-0 iirc) and Germany (4-1).
I remember the season he took over as Juventus' manager and I actually got the privilege of seeing a game in Toronto as Juventus took on Sporting Lisbon (a team preparing for CL qualifiers) and Juventus lost 2-1, in that team Buffon played, Chiellini, Bonucci, Marchisio, Pirlo (Vidal had just recently signed so he was not present), Juventus ended up going undefeated that season and winning the scudetto after finishing seventh the year before :blush:
The point is, Conte is a type of manager that really needs the moment in order to shine. The bigger the stage, the better he is.
It's going to be an interesting season
Cuadrado seems to be coming back to Chelsea, What do you think of him? He never really got a shot at Chelsea, but he had a pretty good half season at juve.
On another note the squad is so fking huge atm, it's insane XD We really are only missing defenders (seems like almost every team is) and if we sell matic then another midfielder is needed.
