If Juve sre so shit, why were Spuds 2-0 down against them in the first leg?

They aren't. Spurs are really good. Juve are struggling for pace and struggling with the press. People tend to fall easily into narratives, though, so Juve are shit, Serie A is shit and Spurs are shit but only because everyone hates them  ;D

People saying this Juve team are poor need to wind it in abit. Spurs have nullified them. They started from the 1st minute in top gear with crisp fast passing and were first to all second balls. They have outpressed and outclassed Spurs but take nothing away from Juve. They too are a great side and this is far from over.

Juve are absolutely awful. It's not even down to Spurs playing well, they are a bad team. I watched them for a bit at the weekend against Lazio or something like that and they were equally awful. I understand why they'd want Can in the team, he'd be one of their best players without breaking a sweat. And I don't think Can is all that great.

I’m still dumbstruck over the penalty appeal.

It’s possibly the Maoist baltent penalty you will see, but because he stumbles when he goes down, he doesn’t get it.  If he’d have dived he’d have got it.... and that’s why people dive...

Outrageous decision.

I saw no evidence of any communist doctrines being demonstrated by that decision?

Spurs are playing well and pressing the life out of their midfield, but nobody is forcing Juve into passing the ball out for a throw ;D

Juve need a better gameplan for the second half, because they didn't create a shot on target in that one.

22 - Son Heung-Min has been involved in 22 goals (14 goals, 8 assists) in 23 appearances at Wembley Stadium this season for Tottenham, more than any other player. Crucial. #TOTJUV

Allegri's hands are tied. Mandzukic, Bernardeschi and Cuadrado are out. This XI is all he has really.

Spurs made us look awful in the 2nd half our match. Spurs are just a good side and Juve can't live with the pace and intensity of their game.

Right?

They’re not making Juventus look awful. Juventus are playing awfully. If you’re watching this pondering how well Spurs are playing, and how unlucky Juve are to come up against such an ace side stopping them playing then fair enough. Nonsense, but fair enough.
If he's being asked to head the ball too frequently - which isn't exactly his specialty - it could affect his ear and cause an infection. Especially if the ball hits him on the ear directly.

Juve should've had a penalty but they should also be down to 10 men after that nasty bit of work from Barzagli.  They were all over the place at the back for Son's goal, not impressing here at all.

People getting way too worked up in here. Juventus are massively struggling with the pace of the game, yes they never got a decision but they have been awful. Pjanic looks half the player when he's pressured like this.
