Ivan Juric’s words on the eve of Inter-Torino

Ivan Juric, coach of Torino, spoke in a press conference on the eve of the challenge with Inter: "We expect good matches against the strongest teams in Italy. Inter won deservedly and I congratulate them, we will have to be at our best to score as many points as possible. They play in front of their public in a full stadium, they will want to prove their worth. We in the end should not care, we have to do our performance. They are strong, we want a great match".

The granata coach è returned to the disappointing home draw with Frosinone: "I was very disappointed, è the first game after the Inter first leg that I didn't really like. I don’t want to see that stuff there anymore: in the next five games I want my team back, the one that didn’t do anything wrong until Frosinone".

"Things have been clear for a long time. For me, the team è been at a high level, even when we lost – he added – In the last match there's been a wake-up call: it can happen, but I hope it doesn&#39t happen again. I don&#39t think it&#39s the rumors, we always behaved great. I don&#39t follow anything, I only coach and think about the team. I don’t follow the other things".

The Europa dream has not è yet vanished: "We are all sad and disappointed about Frosinone, but after the derby we were enthralled as wellì as after the very high performances in the previous games. We have to get back to that. We will find Inter who è champions, Bologna who play fantastically, but we have to get back to those levels. I hope to compete with the next opponents".

"Pellegri returns, Sazonov does not. Then the others are out: the stops of Schuurs and Djidji penalized us, also becauseé we put Tameze behind and took him off the front. It's something that penalized us. Now we are few, after January we are fewer and we have few solutions even during the competition. We were unlucky with injuries like Gineitis, Schuurs and Djidji, all traumatic. We have practically avoided muscle injuries, we è gone wrong with shoulders and knees and they are injuries for which you cannot do anything" concluded Juric on the injury situation.
