Cagliari will find a representative and say
"Cagliari has found their game and is battling hard for survival. We are currently on form. Juventus are a great team despite losing to Udinese and are fighting hard for the scedutto. But we are coming to Turin to play and we don't fear Juve."
Allegri: Juve should fear Cagliari Saturday 31 January, 2009
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cagliari come into tonight’s clash with Juventus brimming with enthusiasm. “
Juve should fear us,” grinned Coach Massimiliano Allegri.
The Sardinians are fresh from holding Inter to a draw at San Siro and defeating Lazio 4-1 at the Olimpico, picking up 10 points from an available 12 in 2009.
“
We are facing a Juventus side that is fired up after the defeat in Udine and wants to make up for that,” said the tactician.
“
But we are full of enthusiasm and want to put in a good performance, without forgetting that after this we have two relegation battles with Atalanta and Lecce.
“These results will give an important verdict on our future. We don’t want to stop here and need another nine points to ensure safety.”
Cagliari climbed into the top half of the table after three consecutive victories and have made a habit of shocking the big clubs.
“As strange as it may seem, it is easier to take on the major sides because they let you play, opening up the space for you to counter-attack.
“Juventus are a very physical side and it’s going to be difficult, but we will try to stop them the same way we did Inter –
by playing our game.
“With the giants that Juve have in defence we certainly cannot try to beat them on that level, so we must focus on quality and pace.”
Paolo Bianco fills in for the injured Diego Lopez, while Allegri hinted he could rotate the squad a little.
On Friday evening Cagliari completed the signing of BATE Borisov midfielder Mikhail Sivakov on a four-year contract, but he won’t be available for tonight’s game.
