Pulled a johan cruyff with that.

"attacking doesnt allways mean taking off defenders. If you have 10 forwards, who'll bring the ball into the box ? Adding a defender but pushing up the play and increasing the pressure on the opponent can be a better strategy if the situation is right"


Wich it was.

Yes he made a defensive sub but our mentality did not change. We still attacked.

I have to say that this was very surprising for me. Allegri has balls. Our goal started from a turnover we created by pressing. And it was Bonucci who won a tackle deep in Torino's half. It's remarkable that he was up the field that far pressing.
:agree:
We didn't stop pressing. It was both surprising and immensely satisfying to see that.

anybody blaming him for the sub is missing something tbh. i want every single guy to see this counter which bonucci was walking for fuck sake and i mean walking and didn't block the cross. this guys was going to score if we continued like this. he did the right thing otherwise we were fucked.

He always leaves the pitch just before the game ends. He says that he doesn't want to take the spotlight from players.
I can't think of any coach in Juventus history whose celebrations were so maniacal that they would take the spotlight from the players. :D

Allegri: Torino deserved draw

Max Allegri feels “a draw would’ve been a fairer result” in the Turin Derby, but Juventus “believed to the end.”

The Bianconeri saw Stephan Lichtsteiner sent off, but Andrea Pirlo snatched a 2-1 victory in the final seconds.

“We played a good first half and conceded a daft goal, as it’s rare you see someone run 70 metres without being challenged,” Allegri told Sky Sport Italia of the Bruno Peres box-to-box strike.

“We weren’t as sharp as usual after the break and it became difficult after the equaliser. Football is wonderful because it’s dramatic and the lads kept fighting to the end, making up for the points we lost at Genoa.

“Perhaps a draw would’ve been a fairer result, but then we deserved a point against Genoa and conceded at the last second there.

“After Torino equalised we were a little disoriented for seven or eight minutes. These things can happen and Torino’s style can force you to run more as they like to spread the play.

“I give credit to the lads for believing to the end. I introduced Ogbonna because we were suffering on counter-attacks down to 10 men and needed more balance at the back.

“Between Juve and Argentina, Tevez played non-stop with an intensity that is just madness. Pogba was also tired, but at times he was a little bit too far forward and detached from the other midfielders.

“I’d like to rotate the squad more, but at the moment we have many players out of action. The only abundance I have are in attack and some midfield roles.”

Allegri became famous after writing 'fiuuu’ – the Italian for phew – on Twitter after a last-gasp win, so what would he write now?

“Fiuuu part two!”
