Dino Zoff impressed by Juventus and promotes Di Gregorio

Dino Zoff granted an interview to Tuttosport in which he spoke about Juventus, which has immediately convinced him in this start of the season: "The feeling, although still partial, è sincerely very positive. Of course, in the last outing against Roma è we lacked a bit of brilliance to bring home the result. But I was especially impressed by the simplicity expressed by the Bianconeri". 

"This is not a question of results or the simplicity with which the first two victories came,” added the former Bianconeri goalkeeper, “also because Juventus was not completely dominant even at home with Como. It let the opponent vent, waited for the right moment and then attacked the spaces. Però it è always proved to be master of the situation, risking nothing in the defensive phase and then striking at the right moment. È a concept, more than anything else, related to the naturalness, almost nonchalance, with which those two round statements"

came.

Then he had his say on the game expressed by new coach Thiago Motta: "Thiago Motta’s hand è already quite evident from the point of view of the development of maneuver. But Juventus has è not yet seemed to me to be 100 percent, from that point of view: I expect growth, at the level of play, in the coming weeks".

For the scudetto Zoff però still puts Inter in front: "I put Inter in pole position, without a doubt: the Nerazzurriè squad is the best equipped in Italy and they have picked up where they left off. I think forò that the fight can be open to several teams, including Milan and Napoli: their season è started with some mishaps, but they are new projects and they have plenty of time to place themselves firmly at the top. Lè where I also expect Juventus, of course. The Bianconeri should be counted every year among the candidates for the Scudetto almost, by definition, and all the more so after the latest market hits".

Finally, he praised the new goalkeeper of the bianconeri, Michele Di Gregorio: "He made a’great impression on me in Monza, in the last two years, so for me è a great sì. The technical base is there’è the gavetta behind him also. European experience? Not è a worrying aspect, the goalkeeper in this sense è a sé role: difficult conclusions you get in Serie B as in Serie A. If you è good between the posts, you è in all categories".
