Allegri: 'Title fight to the end'
By Football Italia staff
Max Allegri “believed in the comeback” from Juventus, but expects Napoli and Inter “to fight to the end for the Scudetto.”
The Coach was raging on the touchline at his players during the 2-1 win over Sampdoria.
“We should’ve controlled the ball better after the second goal and created too many risky situations. Serie A is extremely difficult, it’s not that I have a demon inside me, but we could’ve gone 3-0 up and instead conceded the 2-1,” Allegri told Sky Sport Italia and Mediaset Premium.
“We keep doing this and it’s not as if in Serie A you can expect to never concede a shot on target, but we mustn’t force the situation when there’s no need to.
“I compliment Antonio Cassano, as he had an extraordinary performance tonight, proving he’s immensely talented and still one of the most technically gifted players in Italy.”
In the last nine rounds, Juve have climbed nine places in the Serie A table with nine consecutive victories.
“I believed in the comeback because the team simply had to improve. We now have completely different players to when we started the season, as many had just arrived and were settling in. It’s only normal that when the individuals improve, so does the team.”
Claudio Marchisio and Mario Mandzukic were unavailable today, so Allegri picked Hernanes and Alvaro Morata.
“The midfielders and Paulo Dybala like to rotate, so one goes deeper and the other pushes up so Paul Pogba acts as a striker sometimes. Giving reference points to your opponents is the last thing you want to do.
“I made choices, I told if Hernanes settles into this role in front of the defence then he can really make an impact there throughout the rest of his career.”
The title race remains extremely tight, as Napoli are Winter Champions with Juve and Inter two points behind in second place.
“Inter had one of their best performances today and still lost. That’s football. It is a very balanced League, considering the statistics the Scudetto will be decided on 82 points and I am sure Inter and Napoli will fight to the end for the Scudetto.”
Juventus managed only one point from the opening three rounds, so which game would they like to do all over again?
“The first one with Udinese, because we were too frenetic and played well for 77 minutes, then conceded the decisive goal on their only attempt.”
But why he boasts his dick is 2 as thick as Zach's?
