Massimiliano Allegri’s statements ahead of Juventus-Genoa
After the draw with Atalanta in the previous round, Juventus è awaited the challenge against Alberto Gilardino’s Genoa. On the eve of the match, Bianconeri coach Massimiliano Allegri, among other topics, provided an update on the condition of his players. In addition, the coach from Livorno tried to identify the reasons related to the negative moment his team is experiencing, since in the last seven outings the "Old Lady" has collected only 6 of the 21 points available.
Massimiliano Allegri: "Milik è out, while we recover Rabiot, De Sciglio and Perin"
"We had a good week of work. We are aware of the moment we are going through. Yesterday we stayed at Continassa because we knew the importance of the match. We will not have Milik available who had a little problem and we will evaluate him before the break, while we recover Perin, De Sciglio and Rabiot. Kostic is fine, in the last two games he did not play by technical choice, because Iling was doing very well in training. In attack, even without Arek, we are quite covered with Kean, Chiesa, Vlahovic and Yildiz" began the coach of the bianconeri.
Allegri: "The Club World Cup will be a'beautiful adventure"
"The qualification for the Club World Cup è the fruit of the work done by the club over all these years. We are happy to be able to participate in this competition, it will be a beautiful adventure that we will live together with other great clubs- continued the Livorno coach. We, however, have to stay focused on this year's goals, which is playing the Champions League next year. To do that we will need to finish inside the top four by May 25".
Allegri: "It's been a shared decision to go into retirement"
"I talked with the group and together we decided to stay in retreat at Continassa. We have to resume the path that in this month è we missed. We know we have goals to achieve like the Champions League and the Italian Cup semifinal. It was something I had already decided for several days and when I talked to the boys about it they were on the same line of thinking as me" added the former Milan coach.
On Juventus’ negative moment
"We will have to try to get a win tomorrow. We have only had one success in the last few outings and given the moment we are going through, I think the point collected with Atalanta is positive especially after a good performance. In the last few games we have conceded few chances, but taken many goals. We have to continue to improve and work, but above all have more attention at the team level. We must remain more orderly and have more compactness in the non-possession phase" concluded Massimiliano Allegri.
