“Trezeguet, Camoranesi and Del Piero will travel”
“I’m not going to reveal the starting line up as you never know what might happen between now and tomorrow evening, but Kovac is back to fitness and will travel to Cesena, along with Trezeguet, Camoranesi and Del Piero. The three internationals are not fully match fit but having put in a good ten to twelve days work they are in good condition and will play some part in tomorrow’s game”.
With the return of the World Cup finalists, Didier Deschamps has a strong squad available for Wednesday night’s second round Tim Cup tie with Cesena, although he is not expecting a walk-over: “Everyone wants to beat Juventus, and with a sell-out crowd behind the home side, it certainly won’t be easy”. Whatever happens on Wednesday, the Bianconeri coach is confident his team are well on their way to being ready for the start of the championship: “We still don’t know which division we will be playing in, but the championship is due to start on the 9th or 10th of September and we must be prepared. The uncertainty surrounding our future hasn’t affected the work we’ve done or the attitude of the players. The return of the internationals has a had a very positive impact; they’re working well, with smiles on their faces, and are very committed to the task at hand. The team spirit is also fantastic and it’s great to see that desire and togetherness from everyone. We still need to improve our movement, develop the relationships between the players on the field and make sure the set plays we work on in training become second nature, but so far we are working well and things are looking good for the start of the championship”.
Finally, Deschamps turned his attention to team tactics: “I will base my formation on the players I have available. I will try and ensure that everyone is playing in the position they are most comfortable with, to make the most of their individual qualities, but we have a certain degree of flexibility within the squad. For example, Marchionni can play on both the right and the left and Del Piero is dangerous and effective in a variety of positions. You could say the only two certainties are Trezeguet up front and Buffon in goal!”.
