Gigi Del Neri refused to be downbeat after a third consecutive loss. “Juventus have improved and did all they could against Milan.”
The Bianconeri are plummeting down the standings and have now lost three on the trot, as Gennaro Gattuso’s only goal decided this evening’s match in Turin.
“Juve played a different game to the ones lost against Lecce and Bologna,” insisted the Coach.
“In terms of character, the lads did all they could, but it’s not easy to create chances against Milan, just as they didn’t find it easy to get scoring opportunities against us.
“After the goal we did lose track. It’s a difficult time for us, so we’ve got to roll up our sleeves and carry on with our ideas, albeit respecting the disappointment of the fans.”
Juventus did not have a single shot on goal this evening and appeared to lack creativity.
“We can get out of this crisis by welcoming back injured players like Alberto Aquilani and Simone Pepe. If we compare our quality to that of Milan, then obviously we are very inferior at this moment, but we knew that.
“If we had faced them in a different way, as we did at San Siro with our victory, then it can bring a different result.
“I maintain we did well tonight and we have improved, especially in defence. We’ve got to work on our tactics and gave the ball away too cheaply, but mustn’t get bogged down in our bad luck.”
The other primary problem is that the Old Lady of Italian football seem to lose heart when conceding a goal.
“There is this issue of going a goal down and not having the strength to react,” conceded Del Neri.
“It is a period in which Juve have put together zero points from three games, so that affects morale.
“It is difficult, but we believe that with certain players back to full fitness and taking it one game at a time, we can qualify for the Champions League.
