Former Juventus star says even Guardiola would struggle with this squad
Franco Causio, a former Juventus legend, has expressed disappointment with the team’s performances this season. Despite high expectations, the Bianconeri continue to struggle for consistency in Serie A.
Juventus started the season as one of the favorites to win the title. Although the team remains unbeaten, they have not secured enough wins to reach the top of the league table.
Many regard Juventus’ current squad as one of the strongest in Serie A. However, Causio believes the team lacks the decisive quality needed to convert potential into trophies.

Fans remain hopeful, but the Bianconeri must overcome inconsistency and turn chances into victories if they want to compete seriously for silverware this season.
Causio also raised questions about manager Igor Tudor’s capabilities he said: “Is Tudor up to the task? If he has good players, he can become good. Even Guardiola would have struggled without talent. The coach can give tactical orders, but everything cannot depend on him alone.”
This highlights the dual challenges Juventus face: tactical execution and player quality. While Tudor has the strategy, the absence of game-changing talent at key moments has limited the team’s ability to achieve consistent results.
