Ferrara seeks redemption
Juventus boss Ciro Ferrara says his players have the desire to redeem themselves against Israeli side Maccabi Haifa tomorrow evening.
The Bianconeri are without a win in five games and the Italian Press are beginning to talk of a crisis in Turin.
Tuttosport ran a headline on Monday reading: “Ferrara change!”
It appears as if he has taken their advice, as Juventus are apparently reverting from a 4-3-3 to a 4-2-3-1 ahead of Haifa’s arrival in Italy.
“There is great desire for redemption after a negative moment even if it hasn’t been disastrous,” Ferrara explained.
“It’s true that it isn’t usual for Juventus to not win for a month, but the draws have been different and everyone is analysed individually.”
Turning his attention to tomorrow night’s game, Ferrara kept his cards close to his chest regarding a reported change of formation.
“Maccabi are a well organised team and we will face them with the utmost respect,” he concluded.
Juventus have yet to win in the Champions League so far this season.
They were held by French champions Bordeaux and came away from Bayern Munich with a point.
