Sacchi’s words

Arrigo Sacchi spoke about Thiago Motta's official debut as Juventus coach: "I was very curious, although I knew I could not expect the moon after only a few weeks on the job. I have to say that I liked the Bianconeri: it seems to me that they have taken with seriousness and commitment the path that the coach has laid out. Of course, it must be admitted that Como è seemed clearly inferior on the technical and physical level. Therefore, it is logical that after this victory Juve should not exalt themselves, that’s all we need: this is not the time for judgments, we are only at the beginning of the season and for the Bianconeri it is even the start of a cycle.

"I remain convinced that the Bianconeri club has made an excellent investment by taking Thiago Motta,” he added to the Gazzetta dello Sport. “I have a lot of confidence in him, because I saw him work in Bologna and, above all, I admired the game he gave the Rossoblù even leading them to Champions League qualification. Motta è a strategist, someone who studies soccer from morning to night, someone who lives for the sport and, as a result, I am sure the team will benefit from this total dedication".

"The’important è that the’environment, I mean the managers and also the fans, give the’coach time to work: improvements will be seen game after game, they will be the children of the experiments made during the week and the intuitions of the coach. If the players follow Thiago Motta’s indications, and if they prove to be reliable people, then there will be no problems: Juve will be back on top’

, Sacchi concluded.
