THINGS ARE NOT going according to plan for Juventus currently.
Last night, they were beaten 2-1 by Napoli – the Old Lady’s third defeat from their first six league games.
Max Allegri’s side, who have been crowned Italian champions for the past four years and who made it to the Champions League final in May, had seemed to get back on track by following up a victory over Manchester City in mid-September with another win away to Genoa.
But, last week there was a disappointing draw against top-flight new boys Frosinone and this latest setback in Naples means they’re already 10 points behind Serie A leaders Inter.
