Juventus deliver tale of humiliation and redemption inside three days | Nicky Bandini

Jonathan David's calamitous penalty miss against Lecce has been all but forgiven by Juventus fans after a resounding 3-0 win over Sassuolo. The Canadian striker, signed on a free transfer last summer, had been struggling to make an impact at the Turin club, failing to score in his first six games and being left out of several matches due to off-pitch issues.

However, against Sassuolo, David rediscovered his form, scoring two goals and providing one assist as Juventus dominated their opponents. His performance was a testament to his growing confidence under new manager Luciano Spalletti, who has been praised for his ability to get the best out of his players.

Spalletti's tactics have clearly had an impact on David, who took his time to find space on the pitch and show off his skill. He also showed a newfound willingness to press forward, making him a thorn in the side of the Sassuolo defense. His partnership with Pierre Kalulu down the right flank was particularly effective, as they worked together to create chances for their teammates.

David's redemption has been swift and complete, with many of his teammates and coaches calling for him to be given more playing time. Spalletti has responded by giving David a start against Sassuolo, and it appears that he is now fully committed to helping the striker develop as a player.

The win over Sassuolo marked a significant turning point in Juventus' season so far, with the team now sitting 4th in the table. David's emergence from his slump has been a welcome boost for the club, and fans are now eagerly anticipating his next game against Inter Milan.

However, it remains to be seen whether David can sustain this form over an extended period of time. One swallow does not make a summer, as they say, but David's performance against Sassuolo suggests that he is on the right track. With Spalletti's guidance and support from his teammates, David may yet become a key player for Juventus.
 
๐Ÿค” I'm so down with Jonathan David making a comeback! That penalty miss was a low point, but it looks like he's finally getting back on track ๐Ÿ™Œ His form against Sassuolo was insane! ๐Ÿ˜ฒ It just goes to show that sometimes you need a little break and some fresh air (in this case, new management) to get things going again. ๐ŸŒž Spalletti's been a genius in getting the best out of his players, and I'm loving David's newfound confidence ๐Ÿ’ช Let's see if he can keep it up over the next few games... ๐Ÿ’ฅ
 
Yaaas, finally! ๐Ÿ˜Œ Jonathan David's back to form and it's all thanks to Luciano Spalletti's genius management skills ๐Ÿคฉ. The guy's been through hell but now he's like a new man on the pitch ๐Ÿ”ฅ. It's amazing how a change in tactics can make all the difference ๐Ÿ”„. And let's be real, Pierre Kalulu is his partner in crime on the right flank ๐Ÿ˜‚. I'm loving this partnership and I think David's got a solid shot at becoming a key player for Juventus ๐Ÿ’ช. Fingers crossed he keeps it up and doesn't disappear again ๐Ÿ”ฎ. The fans are hyped and so am I ๐Ÿค—!
 
๐Ÿค” The recent resurgence of Jonathan David has been a fascinating case study in the art of redemption. His 3-0 thrashing of Sassuolo can be attributed to the wise guidance of Luciano Spalletti, who has undoubtedly helped David tap into his full potential.

David's transformation from a struggling rookie to a formidable force on the pitch is a testament to Spalletti's coaching acumen. The new manager's tactics have clearly resonated with David, allowing him to rediscover his confidence and flair. It will be intriguing to see how he maintains this momentum over an extended period, as even the most impressive performances can fizzle out if not sustained.

David's partnership with Pierre Kalulu down the right flank has been particularly noteworthy, showcasing a fluid understanding between two players that has led to several chances for their teammates. With Spalletti at the helm and the team's overall performance on the rise, it's hard not to get excited about David's prospects moving forward ๐Ÿš€
 
omg, what a difference a win can make! ๐Ÿคฉ Jonathan David has been struggling so much but now he's like a new man! ๐Ÿ˜… I was thinking maybe the guy is just not cut out for this league, but it looks like Luciano Spalletti knows how to bring the best out of him. The way he took his time on the pitch and showed off those skills? ๐Ÿ”ฅ genius move by Spalletti, if you ask me! ๐Ÿ‘ Also, that partnership with Pierre Kalulu is straight fire ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ’ฅ now we're talking about a formidable attacking duo!

anyway, one win doesn't mean they'll stay at 4th in the table forever ๐Ÿค”, but it's definitely a positive step for David and Juventus as a whole! ๐ŸŒŸ now let's see if he can keep this form up ๐Ÿ”
 
๐Ÿค” idk why ppl r so hard on jonathan david after that penalty miss vs lecce...he's had some off days 4 sure but he's still got skillz ๐ŸŽฏ & now he's shown us what he's capable of under spalletti's management ๐Ÿ‘. the guy's been given a second chance & he's taken it like a pro ๐Ÿ’ช. his partnership w/ kalulu is fire ๐Ÿ”ฅ & it's cool to see him finally find his form after being left out of some matches ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ. let's not count him out just yet...he might just turn out 2 be a top player for juventus ๐Ÿ˜
 
so its about timing, you know? like, david was struggling to find his footing at juventus, but spalletti came in and changed the game, pun intended ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ‘. he gave him space, let him show off his skills, and now hes on fire ๐Ÿ”ฅ! i think its all about confidence, too - when you feel like youre good enough to take risks, thats when you really start to shine ๐Ÿ’ช. anyway, cant wait to see what david does next - 4th place is looking good for juventus ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ‘Œ
 
omg this guy jonathan david was literally worthless last season ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ but now he's scoring goals left and right like what even ?? his partnership with kalulu is fire ๐Ÿ”ฅ i mean i still dont trust him to score in big games but whatever he's a welcome problem for spalletti lol 4th place in the table too so maybe juventus wont get relegated this season ๐Ÿ™ lets see how long david stays hot tho
 
omg I'm loving this comeback story for Jonathan David! ๐Ÿ™Œ it's like, you can feel the weight of his struggles lifting off his shoulders now that he's found some form under Spalletti. the fact that he was able to silence his doubters in such a big game against Sassuolo is just amazing... and that partnership with Pierre Kalulu is pure magic ๐Ÿ”ฎ๐Ÿ’ซ. but, I gotta say, let's not get ahead of ourselves here. one good game doesn't mean he'll be unstoppable all season ๐Ÿ˜…. still, it's been refreshing to see David shine like this after such a rough patch. fingers crossed he keeps it up! ๐Ÿ‘
 
omg u gotta feel 4 jons david lol hes been thru hell n back but luciano spalletti's done him a solid! he's finally found his groove & is lookin like a whole diff player now ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘Š david's partnership w/ kalulu down the flank is so effective, dey r create chances 4 eva! & it's awesome 2 c david taking his time on the pitch, showin off his skills & bein a thorn in the side of opposing defenses ๐Ÿคฏ๐Ÿ’ช he's def gonna get more playin time now & i think hes got a shot at becomin a key player 4 juventus ๐Ÿ‘
 
omg did you see jondavid's penalty miss lol ๐Ÿ˜‚ but seriously who else was expecting him to comeback like this after getting thrashed 6-0 by milan last month? anyway i think spalletti is the real hero here he's like a genius with tactics and i love how he's given david more time to shine ๐Ÿ’ก now juventus is looking like a serious contender for the title ๐Ÿ‘Š
 
I'm like totally stoked for Jonathan David... wait, no I'm not ๐Ÿค”. I mean, who needs goals when you're getting torched by defense every game? ๐Ÿ˜‚ But seriously, he's been pretty decent lately and the team's win against Sassuolo was a big deal. Spalletti must be doing something right with that guy ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ... or maybe it's just because David finally figured out how to beat his own anxiety ๐Ÿ’ก. I'm not saying it's a guarantee, but two goals in one game? That's some serious momentum ๐Ÿ”ฅ... unless he has a meltdown against Inter Milan ๐Ÿ˜ณ.
 
idk how long it took for david to get back into form lol 6 games without a single goal was pretty brutal for him ... but hey at least he redeemed himself now ๐Ÿ˜’ he still needs to prove that it wasn't just one fluke game against sassuolo tho, we dont wanna see him tank again ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ
 
Idk what to expect from David now... one good game doesn't change much ๐Ÿ˜’. He's still got some work to do if he wants to make it in this league. And let's be real, Spalletti is known for rotating his squad, so don't think David's gonna be a regular starter just yet ๐Ÿค”. Still, it's nice to see him back on the scoresheet and helping the team out. Maybe we'll see some consistency from him soon? โšฝ๏ธ
 
OMG, THIS IS AMAZING!!! ๐Ÿคฉ JONATHAN DAVID'S TURNAROUND STORY IS INSPIRING! I MEAN, WHO WOULD HAVE THOUGHT HE'D BE SCORING 2 GOALS AGAINST Sassuolo AFTER BEEN SO BADLY MISSED BY THE PEN ALREADY?! ๐Ÿ˜‚ BUT SERIOUSLY, LUCIANO SPALLETTI'S TACTICS REALLY SEEMED TO SUIT DAVID AND NOW HE LOOKS LIKE A COMPLETE DIFFERENT PLAYER! HIS PARTNERSHIP WITH KALULU WAS ON POINT!!! I'M SO EXCITED TO SEE HIM PLAY AGAINST INTER MILAN NOW! ๐ŸŽ‰ LET'S HOPE HE CAN KEEP THIS UP FOR THE REST OF THE SEASON! ๐Ÿคž
 
๐Ÿคฉ I'm loving this turnaround by Juve fans - 6 months ago it was like they were about to cut him loose, now he's scoring goals left & right! ๐Ÿ˜‚ Spalletti's got some magic dust, that's for sure. The kid's finally finding his feet, and his partnership with Kalulu is pure gold ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ‘Š It's gonna be interesting to see how this plays out over the next few games... can't wait to see him go up against Inter! ๐Ÿ’ช
