Wasn't the case when their dominance started. Really is a simple case of the others sorting themselves out.
They had so much money, they could afford having their own Ground (ie owned by the club).
The rest of the stadia in Italy are owned by local authorities and clubs pay rent. Only Juventus could afford their own Ground.
They are backed by one of Italy s richest families - Agnelli s.
Napoli owner, Delaurentis, admitted that no one is near them financially

Did I miss something? Why were Insigne and Ghoulam subbed off? It'll be interesting to see Lozano though.

My point is their dominance wasnt started by money. It was great opportunism in the market and coaching that got them where they are. Nowadays the gap is obviously huge but others should try to do what they did to get to where they are.

They were always the richest over there, except during Berlusconi s AC Milan period. Success follows money in Italy (not only over there).
70 s and early 80 s Juventus were dominant - Agnelli s FIAT pumping the cash. Then mid 80 s Milan took over (Berlusconi media empire financing the club) till late 2000.
Now Juventus are back

Not only one of the richest but also probably the most powerful in Italy, that means even a lot (that made a lot of difference for example for taking advantage to take for peanuts the ground to build ther stadium).

Anyway Suning is not far as financial power.

Juve's dominance in Serie A is something else. They've won the league every time since 2011 haven't they? 8 years in a row?

Woeful from De Ligt, what's he doing?

Good comeback to 3 2 from Napoli.

Will be a big bottlejob if Juve mess up this 3-0 lead.
