Fabio Capello says Max Allegri’s Juventus ‘can’t play like this’ and questions the coach’s decision to leave Dusan Vlahovic on the bench against Fiorentina.


The Bianconeri are just two points short of Serie A leaders Napoli and Milan but fans and pundits have heavily criticised Allegri’s playing style.


The Bianconeri failed to register a single shot on target in the second half of Saturday’s 1-1 draw against Fiorentina and two decisive saves of Mattia Perin helped the Old Lady get away with a point.


“Juventus can’t play this way,” Capello told Sky Sport Italia.


“Allegri must do more, he should stop telling jokes and work to bring something more out of his team to return to win. Juventus have ups and downs and it’s hard to understand what they want to do.”


Juventus visit PSG tomorrow, but Allegri said on Saturday that their direct rivals for the qualification for the Round of 16 are Benfica and not the Ligue 1 giants.


“If that’s the case, why didn’t Vlahovic play against Fiorentina?” asked Capello. “I don’t understand.”


However, the former Juventus boss admitted that Allegri is still missing some crucial players [such as Paul Pogba and Federico Chiesa] who are currently out of action with injuries.


“Juventus remain two points behind the table leaders, imagine where they would be if they played well. They are still building the team and are missing important players who make the difference.”
You know it’s bad when Capello is the one saying this

All of them had higher net spend than us this summer, Inter and Milan without losing anyone important and upgrading on already strong teams.

Last summer we had a neutral net spend, spent more in January. Overall it's all 50m more or less difference. Inter sold Lukaku for over 100m, got him back on loan now.
Bullshit post.

City had a negative net spend this season yet it's common knowledge they are among the clubs with the biggest budget in the PL and can spend when they need to.

The highest paid player at Milan is fucking Origi at 4M net.

Inter only have Lukaku and Brozovic who are paid higher than 6M net.

Meanwhile, more than half our starting eleven earn above the 6M wage bracket and this includes players purchased in Allegri's tenure - Pogba, Paredes, Di Maria and Vlahovic.

Neither Milan, Inter or Napoli can afford to spend on player salaries like we do.

Our operating income is way higher than any Serie A club and that's the reason we were able to recruit so many players on huge salaries in the first place. The players that Allegri himself requested.

No matter who we sign, it has been the same old problem. No gameplan, no intensity, no cohesion, confused players running like headless chickens. This is all on Allegri and we've seen the same old stuff for the last 14 months.

No wonder we look so physically weak and lethargic when facing high intensity teams.

If like you say, Allegri's grand plan of 'building a winning culture' is by setting up the team not to lose, then I think he needs to take a permanent vacation from football.

Look dude, you said we spent too much money on him already and we aged the team because of him. Neither of those are factually true, you can call bullshit as much as you want, doesn't change the facts.

You call bullshit on facts but then proceed to judge quality of players based on how much they're paid. Cute

I never said that, I never got into the what is Allegri doing any how he's doing it with you. I just explained what you said initially and why it's not true. You can say he doesn't deserve time based on our play so far and results, that's fine, but money spent and age of the squad are factually not true.

Noone is too bothered about the result. It's how we played and the decisions Max is making.
Kinks that will get worked out IMO. Growing pains with a lot of new players. Impossible to plan around getting your key players back once every 2 games or in a few months .

agree subs are shocking but I still think the seas will calm a bit soon enough. Not saying we will play PSG level but results will be grinding out again
