Massimiliano Allegri spoke at the press conference after Juventus’s 2-0 victory over Spezia.
What are the biggest improvements of this Juve in a year and a half?
“Several players have changed, quite a lot. We’re doing well in the league, we scored 47 points, then on the other side there’s a penalty. We have to bring whoever’s ahead closer even if we’re far away. We have to improve because the first half wasn’t Good.”
How did Spezia see him?
“Playing here is always complicated. Spezia always creates something, tonight, like with Naples and Rome, they create because they have quality. I think they have an excellent chance of saving themselves.”
What didn’t you like today? Paredes how do you judge it?
“Paredes had difficulties in the first half. In the first half we played badly technically, making a lot of mistakes, we risked little or nothing in the lead. In the second we did better but we risked conceding goals, Perin made an extraordinary save. We have to improve. Di Maria’s entry has raised the level.”
Putting Bonucci in 92nd place: why?
“I asked him to come on with a win, since he hadn’t played for two months. He was very happy, he’s the captain, he hasn’t played for three months and slowly he has to return. I asked him, I respect him for his career extraordinary, and was glad to enter.”
Is Perin limited to being second?
“I can only put one in goal. In the hierarchies of the team there is a starter and a reserve, but Perin usually plays about twenty games. In addition to being an important goalkeeper, who has grown a lot, he is now a Juventus goalkeeper I’m serene because we have two high-level goalkeepers.”
A comment on Di Maria?
“I’ve always been lucky because in the teams I’ve coached I’ve been stuffed with champions. Di Maria is one of them. The bad luck is that he’s 35, I would have liked him younger so he could play all the matches. He came in and did extraordinary things Football is strange: on Thursday we slip once and draw, today maybe you concede a goal on 1-0 and who knows. Football is this, there are games you deserve to win and you don’t win and you win others in which you deserve less. hard to explain.”
A judgment on Vlahovic?
“A center forward who is happy when he doesn’t score goals doesn’t exist. The important thing is to win. He fought a lot, he had a couple of important balls but I’m happy.”
