13:32 – Allegri takes his place in the press room of the Allianz Stadium: the Juventus coach’s conference begins now.
How does the team arrive?
“We got Rabiot back and we have Bernardeschi and Kean out. Sassuolo plays very clean football, they have players with good technique. Dionisi is proving to be a good coach in his first experience in Serie A. For us tomorrow it is important because otherwise the point in Milan would not make sense. Tomorrow is a game to be won and not to be played, the boys know it ”.
Kaio Jorge owner? What impression did it make?
“Not from the start, even if he proved to be a good player with personality when he entered the field. He showed up, then got injured and worked well. I think he can have an excellent career, he is physically strong and he is so smart that he knows football well ”.
Where do you hope to be at the stop in the standings?
“Where I hope I don’t know, see you tomorrow. There are games that you have to play like the one with Inter and games that you have to win like tomorrow’s. Tomorrow begins the first of the triptych that takes us to the stop. And in the middle the Zenit that can lead us to have the passage of the shift in advance ”.
Do you feel safer right now?
“Unfortunately, the points left at the beginning do not allow us to have a great margin of error. The victory with Roma allowed us to go to Milan to play in better conditions in the standings. The draw is important if we win tomorrow, otherwise it is like to have lost. We are not in a position to be able to make mistakes, but to have to do well. We need to go on the pitch and play a fair game, technical and physical and be responsible. In these ten days we play a lot “.
Do you take the risk of having to bring Juve back into the match against Sassuolo?
“First of all tomorrow is Wednesday, we play at a strange time. We come from a match with Inter in front of 60 thousand people which gives different adrenaline. Tomorrow it is more difficult to prepare for the match than the one with Inter. We need to be compact, play better and score two goals that we haven’t scored for a long time. Maybe tomorrow winning with two goals is a goal to give us ”.
Rest for Locatelli? Arthur what replaces him?
“As characteristics Arthur, yes, but they can also play together with the most advanced Brazilian as a midfielder and at his side Locatelli and Ramsey. The midfield will decide tomorrow morning ”.
Is the attack the problem?
“No it’s not, Dybala is growing in condition. Morata scored 21 goals last year, Chiesa 14 or 16. Dybala wasn’t there and so this year his goals will be as important as we need the midfielders’ goals. We work on the offensive and defensive phases, this is part of the daily work ”.
Dybala owner tomorrow? Is the lack of production due to the fact that first he wanted to fix the defensive phase?
“Let’s say we do it better, not fixed. It is normal that Dybala has the goal in his blood, but I think it becomes the characteristic of the team by replacing the goals of those who scored 30 alone. Tomorrow Dybala will play and Chiesa will also play “.
So let’s complete, does Morata also play?
“It’s not like I can tell you all of them. Play Perin instead of Szczesny. Rugani? No, enough, I already told you Dybala, Chiesa and Perin. De Ligt comes in and there are four of them. If I tell you all, then I’ll leave someone out … “.
Where is Dybala?
“Dybala is a player with an important technique, like a fitting. Kulusevski last night in Milan had a good match for the first 60 minutes because he had to play that match. He also put a nice ball in the middle. there is a general growth on the part of everyone, both physical and mental. And this allows me to make changes because the team suffers them less, I would say that there are good prospects for the future. But tomorrow you have to win, you can’t run away from there ”.
Does he see himself again in Dionysus?
“He did very well in Empoli they win a championship, for him that is an added value because winning is not easy. In Sassuolo he is doing well, perhaps with different concepts but they play well “.
Is Chiesa a player who still needs to be defined?
“He is an international player, he has a certain level of energy expenditure. It came from many games played, on Sunday I had read the game for the first 60 minutes in a certain way. But I made a mistake and put Kulusevski on Brozovic. Chiesa did not go to the bench for demerit, I read the game in a certain way. Federico is a staple of the national team and Juventus. If they always play the same ones in January, I throw them away, they need 20 more players. They are boys, they are not mopeds. Every now and then they should be left to rest, it is not so much a physical issue but a mental one. Every now and then I have to leave them out. If I manage to manage the squad well, we get to the bottom. We had a good match with Inter, Inter are the favorites for the Scudetto even if Inzaghi can say no. We played better than Zenit in my opinion, then football is questionable. In my opinion we had a good match against Inter, it all depends on the opponent’s worth. There is nothing like it in life. Football is good because everything is questionable. Later, not before. After”.
Can Juve afford Chiesa, Dybala and Morata together with the presence of Cuadrado too?
“They can also play all together, everything is possible”.
13:49 – Massimiliano Allegri’s press conference ends now.
