LW: Cristiano Ronaldo 8/10

Cristiano Ronaldo wasn’t able to be the difference maker against Atletico Madrid, but he was against Hellas Verona on Saturday. He assisted Aaron Ramsey’s goal (even if Ramsey did most of the work) and buried his penalty for the Juve winner. He also made an incredible pass to Blaise Matuidi in the box, but Matuidi wasn’t able to give it the finish it deserved.

ST: Paulo Dybala 6/10

This match didn’t do anything to change my opinion that Paulo Dybala doesn’t have a place in the Juve squad anymore. As was the case all of last season, the attack looked disjointed with Dybala in it and that showed in Juve’s complete inability to get good looks on goal for the majority of the match. Some of this was caused by the midfield, but Dybala wasn’t really able to do much even when the midfield advanced the ball. He had one beautiful sequence with Ronaldo that ended in him missing a long shot, but that one moment just isn’t enough to justify a spot for him. I’m sure Dybala will be better as he plays more, but Gonzalo Higuain should continue to be the starter.

RW: Juan Cuadrado 7/10

I still think that Federico Bernardeschi should be starting in this position, but Juan Cuadrado was fine in this match. He put in a solid defensive effort in the match and more importantly, he drew the penalty that ended up winning the match. Outside of those two positives, it was easy to overlook Cuadrado in this match. I really hope that Juve starts Bernardeschi on Tuesday because at some point starting Cuadrado is going to come back to bite juve.
