Around 5 minutes leading up to the goal was our best spell. Borini decent effort from the left, Kessié's run. Hakan's corner was actually pretty bad (took too long and in fact deflected) but luckily it fell well for Romagnoli. Glad the referee didn't call a foul on that, as happens too often in football.

Finally Kessie shows some of the runs beating defenders that we saw in preseason. Need to have more midfielders creating chances than Suso. Unfortunately Hakan is no where near consistent enough in his passing game and holding on to the ball. Hope it's just his confidence, but seen many games and he is just too streaky.

He still isn't doing enough IMO. If Montella has some balls he will sub off Hakan for Cutrone or Silva. Sassuolo are leaving a lot of space to exploit. Let Kalinic drop deeper in to Hakan's position and have another striker up front.

As I type the above, Locatelli on for Hakan.

Sassuolo are having a bad season so nothing to get too excited about. Still, the players got the job done.

Suso once again decisive but several others played their part. Kessié played in the way we expect him to, driving forward in midfield with purpose. Montolivo put in a mature performance doing all the simple things right. If Montella has any sense he will start Monto ahead of Hakan, who is struggling with doing the simple things. Borini and Bonucci did well too.

mOTM ? Bonucci? Monto ;) ? Suso? Roma?

Anyway, these profi sports personalities that are supposed to be tough and all are so ... fragile and easy ... against juve we play a solid, actually a very good first half until they score and we more or less collapse; now we play a terrible first half but one goal and we them dominate and win easily ...
