Juventus coach Thiago Motta also spoke to ‘Sky’ on the eve of the match against Aston Villa, a match valid for the fifth day of the ‘Championship Phase’ of the Champions League: “A situation with so many injuries can only be dealt with in one way, that is by giving everyone something extra. We will face a great team and we want to provide a good performance.”
Will it be a San Siro-style Juventus?
“We will play as we should play, we will also see how our opponent will behave. Aston Villa is a great team with a great coach, we will give our best.”
Aston Villa are conceding a lot of goals and the results aren’t coming. Do you expect an angrier or more pressured team?
“Neither of them. In the Champions League they have nine points, one more than us. They also won against Bayern: all respect will be needed for a team that is doing well. Tomorrow we will give our best.”
What changes with Weah rather than with injured McKennie?
“He can play like anyone else, the important thing is to play as a team and face situations together.”
And sooner or later you’ll find someone…
“I have total faith in whoever is there. Tomorrow we will give our best.”
