Conte's Press conference, a poor translation tough.


This week is a bit strange: you have not played, you are first and Milan lost. Are you surprised?

"Above all, I repeat the speech and the concept I had planned before the game against Parma, before the first frost, before the arrival of atmospheric situations very very heavy. And what I hoped was to play in the best conditions, to deliver the show that we are obliged to ensure, both for people watching on television, as for the fan who comes to the stage . And therefore, the controversies that have emerged in Parma are very frivolous and unnecessary controversy, because you saw how things happened. This should make it clear to everyone that the cold has always existed, we do not live in Dubai, where the temperature reaches 25 ° when it is cold. We live in Europe, we live in Italy, where we know there is a period of cold and frost, this is the worst time. What is certain is that in Italy we do not have adequate facilities. All leagues play on our side and we face these enormous difficulties. So I think we will move to that level, because improving our facilities we can offer better performance, to those watching on TV and our fans who come to us at the stadium. This week, some played, others not. There were results, we take note. The postponement of the match Parma compels us to have to play three games in six days and this is a problem. Yet, some continue to say that Juventus play a match a week. Thank you for this ... ".

What can be done immediately to solve this problem? The only team that has a suitable structure is Juventus, all others are behind. As a former player and a coach, what do you suggest?

"As a former player and a coach, I have ideas, but I think we are entering a more political debate. I can not make decisions for qualified persons. By cons I can make suggestions, but it seems appropriate to make suggestions at the right time and in more appropriate locations. But there are undoubtedly some suggestions to make. I hope that in future we will have the opportunity to confront and try to find solutions. "

Juventus now has a busy schedule ahead of her. The next two games are particularly delicate, the one against Siena in the league and the first leg of Italian Cup against Milan. Do you rotate the workforce or are you living in the day?

"No, I can not live by the day, we will play Sunday against Siena on Wednesday against Milan, in Bologna Sunday, Wednesday and Saturday against Parma against Catania, we will have five games in 13 days. So I can not live by the day, I have to plan or schedule the use of my players, as an account of their fitness, games, the opponent, how we face it. This is not the time to live for the day. "

Back to previous topic: you said the problem could be solved Parma playing 15 hours. But you know for TVs, games 15 hours have a lower commercial value. Would you be willing to waive a portion of your salary because it is partially paid by television to play in better conditions?

"Yes, but the speech to waive a portion of wages is always a speech very very relative, because the salary ultimately depends on the importance of the coach, it depends on the size of the player. It is inevitable that the money collected is used to try to make structures more appropriate. Needless to as the grasshopper and the ant, you know the story. "


Today, you will practice -10, -11, and tomorrow you will play more or less at the same temperature. From a technical standpoint, how does one prepare a game like this? As a player have you ever had to deal with situations like that? The -14 Uefa said that we should stop the game because it's risky for the players. Is it really risky?

"I happened to play at -18 °, Romania, against Steaua Bucharest. It was a special match, on a snowy field. It must surely be in the best conditions to play football and climatic conditions are sometimes verging. In our case, we do have the luck and the ability to have a stadium that belongs to us, a heated field, which allows us to offer a show on which the cold has no influence. We also know that our stadium is one of the few in Italy to allow this. We are so proud. "

Returning to the game tomorrow: Vucnic Will it be better? Is it able to play? One can speak of plenty in attack. Is it possible that a "major" go in the stands?

"All strikers are available, they are all well. This is a very good thing for me, it allows me to make choices. I need to have all players available, there will be room for all. I repeat, we have five games in thirteen days, so we need everybody. Nobody should be surprised if, after a brace, he sits on the bench, because I have to make choices, a technical standpoint, tactical, physical, mental. So we will try to play everybody. So far, everyone responded in the best way. I am serene and, as I told the boys, we still need everyone, even during this period. "

You have defined the Milan as super favorite. The do you always? Not so much following the defeat against Lazio, but for the umpteenth defeat against a team from the top of table. Then apply technical transfer Caceres was it validated?

"Regarding Caceres, documents must still happen, but they should arrive. Martin should be available, but it is not that they arrive in the coming hours. Otherwise, I would like to thank the media because I see they are starting to write songs for us, they begin to give us favorites. So I thank you because it means that Juventus is again taken into consideration. See that in six months, we started from the six-seventh to finally be given as favorites for the scudetto ... I say a miracle happened. I love seeing how things evolve and I am very happy to see they evolve in a manner so extraordinary, super special. We must and can be really satisfied. That said, I consider and confirm that Milan is the favoriteto win this championship. We must never forget where we came from and I believe no one should forget. However, it is beautiful to see how quickly people can change their minds in 5-6 months, particularly about our transfer window, which had been criticized. "

Ok.....i can say with a clear conscious that it is Conte's fault for the bad result today. All this time he has been saying that he will only play the most well-prepared players in the squad......why start Vucinic? Why bench Giacc who is clearly in a great form? Why start with one attacker when you knew that the oposite team is gonna defend the shit out of us? I am angry....i wouldnt have been....but Inter lost, Milan drew and Lazio and Udine both lost......

Questionable line-up to begin with, and the subs weren't much better. Esti, Giach or Elia should have started instead of Pepe. If DP was fit and picked to start against Parma away, then why not play him at home later in the week against Siena.

no serious complaints other than the Borriello sub, Siena were very well-organised.
I complained right from the start that we should have played with 2 attackers. I knew that Matri alone will not cut it. We just can t play with one attacker Ahmed when we play against teams that defend with 11 men....

He seems to be reluctant to go with anything other than 3 CMs. We need a player behind the forwards against these small teams. And we need to give Elia a fucking chance. The only player that can dribble people consistently. All it takes is one slalom and we can win the game.

unfair to blame him for that, 4-3-3 is our preferred system, as MVP is our team's main strength.
