Juve-Samp, Allegri: “We deserve second place”

“We deserve second place, it’s not easy to play since the penalty arrived. Now we’d be at 53”, commented Juve coach Max Allegri at the end of the match against Sampdoria. “We need to improve match management. But it’s normal with so many players in the middle who haven’t yet played many games with the first team. Rabiot? He has a different engine than the others.”

About Vlahovic

—

“Vlahovic played a good game, he will score goals later. Tonight he did better, he came close, he must remain serene. Tonight he played better technically. I always tell him, he must remain calm, he sometimes goes out of revs in energy management. It’s normal for a 23-year-old boy, let’s not forget that he’s been at Juventus for a year or so.”

Achilles heel

—

“What’s less good about this match? We need to improve the management of the match. At 2-0 we can’t play on an open field, we don’t need to concede, but we need to go on the counterattack and close the spaces, it’s normal that young players pay a bit of inexperience. Those behind, who are more experienced, have to take them by the orecchiette and put them in positions. But they did well, Fagioli did an excellent second half, while the action had to be stopped on Sampdoria’s first goal. the second is the son of the first, but these are situations that happen when you have few games at Juventus.”

Penalties and surroundings

—

“The -15 affair? We won’t say anything, the club will take care of this. We had a good reaction to the sentence with Atalanta and we thought we had solved everything. It wasn’t easy to get up after Monza, and instead the boys are there successful and what they’re doing is important. I don’t know how we’ll get there but at the moment we’re second (adding the 15 penalty points to the current 38 points, Juve would have 53 points). When we started, the goal was the Scudetto or the first 4 places and to go on in Europe. Tonight Soulé scored, 5-6 youngsters have already played in the first team this year, it’s a great result from the second team. There’s too much difference between the Primavera and the second team, it’s difficult to find ready players.”

Injured chapter

—

“Pogba felt discomfort in his adductors while taking free-kicks. We’ll look into the injury further, but I’m excluding whether it’s Thursday or Sunday. We’ll see him again after the break. Bremer is living with a patellar tendon discomfort, but it’s not in doubt.”
