Juventus Turin - Der Rekordmeister

Brisk but brilliant this currently six part series is a fantastic watch, featuring beautiful cinematography of the squads training regime and match action intercut between conferences, interviews etc. The series follows certain players individually away from the pitch over the course of the season as the club soars to success showing a more personal side of the stars. The general following of the course of the season creates a wonderfully tense narrative of hogs and lows allowing for a greatly effective style to shine through, highly recommend

First Team Juventus is a really thrilling and informative look at the inner workings and behind the scenes (the day to day lives) of one of European/World football's elite clubs: Juventus.

The story arc follows Juventus' 2017/2018 season and profiles a number of their players, both homegrown (Gigi Buffon,Georgio Chiellini) to their stellar imports (Paulo Dybala, Gonzalo Higuain, Juan Cuadrado, etc.).

Given the results of their 2017/2018 Champions League run thus far, it could prove to have a climactic second half of the (docuseries') season.

It's showing us life of a football player, their dedication and anything you should know if you're a big Juventus fan. Why i gave 7 stars and not 10? Because it has just 1 season with 3 episodes.

Sadly the passion and interest level found in Sunderland till I die is missing from this show. It's very well put together but doesn't quite hit the high levels needed. The narrators voice is strangely out of place in a sea of italian language. It might have been better to source a narrator with an italian accent speaking english to maintain that authenticity. watch a few episodes but you will soon get bored.

I love this title and am waiting for the next episodes to come out. I've always craved for a series, similar to the one on Liverpool, which shows the human side behind these stars, they're great commitment to the sport and of course their attachment to a huge club like Juventus...

I'm also happy they chose this team, because unlike other elite teams, Juventus is literally impregnated with history and tradition. Let us not forget that Juventu has been in the hands of the Agnelli family since 1923 when FIAT owner Edoardo Agnelli bought the club. It makes the family the longest lasting ownership in any sports franchise globally. It has an outstanding competent management and let's face it... it's a cool name.

I might have liked to see something about their scandal in 2006 behind the scenes. From what I read there was a second trial a couple of years later, in which the team was actually declared NOT guilty for most of the convictions. A little sad, that the media did not report these turn in the facts as it should... On the other hand, I understand maybe Juventus just wants to move on... Well, they're doing it greatly.

All in all, 10/10 for the series, can't wait for more episodes.
