The coach absolves David and Openda: “By decreasing the quality, the possibility of the individual is lost.” Hypothesis Osimhen opponent in the playoffs: “We have potential for these duels”
“We went slowly, below level. The match didn’t give us anything to talk about: in the defensive phase we unraveled some dangerous situations, but going forward we needed to have more quality.” Spalletti is insatiable and does not hide his disappointment at Juve’s poor performance in Monte Carlo, even if the 0-0 draw with Monaco promotes the Bianconeri among the top seeds for the Champions League playoffs.

Spalletti explains the subdued performance with “a bit of accumulated fatigue, the substitutions aimed to give greater brilliance with those who had played less – he explained -. It must be said that up front we had a team that took you on these 100 meter runs, we weren’t able to make team blocks. Openda and David? They didn’t do badly, but with a drop in quality the individual’s chances are lost”. What has changed a few months after the Spalletti treatment? “There is more awareness now – admitted the coach -, in these matches we have to give continuity, tonight we didn’t succeed. It was a dirty match, they attacked us again immediately and we missed too many passes: this way we complicate things a bit”. For Juve there is the possibility of finding themselves against Osimhen in the Champions League playoffs, “but everyone must be faced anyway – Spalletti minimizes -, we have the potential for these duels. It’s not that tonight’s ones were any less, especially when they are difficult. It’s something that must be faced with the awareness of being able to determine what we have in front of us”.
