Massimiliano AllegriJuventus coach, analyzes on the microphones of DAZN the goalless draw in the direct match against Milan: “Normal substitution, otherwise we would start and end with the same eleven. Dusan had done well and then we have many games. It’s not a failure, I needed fresher people up front and to I put Milik and Chiesa on this. Pioli was very good at switching the flanks when I put Federico on. When you win you go home with a different taste, but in the return we lost a lot of games, creating a lot of opportunities. It’s normal that we have to improve our passing, making mistakes less but we are working on it.”
Team growing physically?
“More than physical growth, those who come in during the match can lend a hand. In Rome, despite losing the match, they got us through and today we could have won the match.”
Chiesa more incisive from the bench
“At that moment, Chiesa gives you chances in a one-on-one against a tired defender. In my opinion, he needs to improve in the first control because that would create even more dangerous opportunities.”
How do you imagine your Juve next year?
“I am a lover of technical players, I grew up with a coach who never talked about formations but about technique. You have to ask the club this question, I only have to think about the end of the season trying to field the best team. The second half is played with confidence, I’m happy with the performance. Football can be played in certain ways, there is a squad that will have to be evaluated to understand if it should be strengthened or if it’s okay to face the new season”:
Italian Cup and Champions League within reach?
“There’s certainly nothing, we have two objectives that are quite close. We lost a final in extra time against Inter, we hope this year to be good and lucky to win it but I can’t blame these guys for anything. It’s not easy to play At this moment in Juventus, such important matches are part of their growth process
Yildiz’s test?
“Federico is a player with different characteristics, who attacks depth more. He knows how to stop the ball very well, with these players who are a mix of technique and speed we have created important opportunities.”
