The Brazilian defender, in his debut season at Juve, then commented on his personal learning: “I’m always ready to play for the coach and for the team. Whether it’s a three or four back, it makes no difference. Last season at Torino we used individual marking, now I’m learning zone marking. For now, my performance overall is positive, except for a few matches like those against Napoli and Monza. I want to keep growing and improving until the end of the season.”
