Pepe: “What a nuisance over the draw”
He’s always plain. Pepe didn’t hide his disappointment due to the draw against Catania. A disappointment which was already shown at the end of the game, when he exited the pitch with a very upset expression on his face: “I just can’t let it go - explained Simone - when I don’t win, I take it amiss, and I got angry because a draw after a great performance in the second half with four or five important goal chances isn’t fair.”
When he got on the pitch, Juventus changed their pace and this wasn’t the first time in this season that Pepe found himself among the best players. This is due to his excellent shape, but also to the new system: “This is a different way of playing as compared to the last season, because I’m not the fifth added defender, and I’m fresher when restarting to run on the side.”
