To the microphones of TMW Radio during Maracanà, the former Juventus midfielder Alessio Tacchinardi spoke about the delicate moment for the Bianconeri:
The first thought of the day for whom?
“SOS, Koopmeiners desperately wanted at Juventus”.
How can this problem be solved?
“I’ve always said that Motta and Giuntoli have to find something better. If you want to stay at Juve you have to prove that you are a great coach and a great sporting director. They both have to find better solutions. Having said that, Koopmeiners is a problem. You win championships with the midfielders who make the difference from the attacking midfield up, he seems like a foreign body and is feeling the pressure. He has to get out of this situation, he has to give more but perhaps Motta also has to find a different outfit for him. He struggles a lot in that position. Physical talk? It’s up to a month and a half, due to the various problems. If you’re not well, you get at least 20 minutes at your level, but he’s really lacking in terms of personality It’s hard for me now, you have to make moves up front but it’s always in a reduced gear. If that’s the pace, he needs to find a better position up front and Motta, to be a great coach, has to prove himself by trying of solutions. I hope he makes it to that step.”
What is your opinion on the Vlahovic case?
“The fan legitimately makes his criticisms, the player must not react, take his responsibilities. The criticisms must be accepted and we start again. The player’s response seemed positive to me, Vlahovic can be the one who takes the team on his shoulders, because Juve is looking for a charismatic leader who doesn’t exist.”
