Juventus, against "his" Bologna Thiago Motta announces three returns
On the eve of the home match against his former team, Bologna, Juventus coach Thiago Motta in a press conference announced three important returns, in particular that of Dusan Vlahovic, a key pedima for the Bianconeri attack. Here are his words.
"Vlahovic will be with the group, he è trained during the week with the team, as well as Adzic and Savona. Bremer, Cabal, Douglas Luiz, Nico Gonzalez, McKennie and Milik remain out. I don’t believe in luck or bad luck, I have my idea about injuries, I try to pay attention to what we canò improve, both for the game and for injuries. We come from games in which we didn't win, as for performance well in some moments and others to improve. The'need è to improve, but not relying on one phase of the game. Everything has to work, today our offensive phase è a responsibility of everyone, starting with our goalkeeper".
“Stadium exhausted? The important è what we will do on the field, what we will convey, but I am convinced that together with them we can give a great performance. Bologna is well, è a great team, they play a lot vertically and press a lot: we have to concentrate to avoid suffering their great intensity. In Bologna I spent two wonderful years, both on a human and sporting level. For everything else I have nothing to add".
"Now the maximum concentration è on Bologna. All the words of Gigi (Buffon, who called the Bianconeri coach a leader, ed.) I take them with great pleasure and esteem, not only for the player but also for the man because we have shared so many things together. I will always thank him for what he did and does, he always speaks for the good of Juventus. We are all leaders: certainly on the field there are many who take responsibility, others get along with them and tomorrow we have a chance to play our game and limit the opponent's strengths".
“Are we not being considered for the championship? We are focused on the game, preparing as best we can and being demanding of ourselves to improve and do the performance we want. We respect the opinions of the experts. The pressure will always be there, becauseé every team has a goal to achieve. And we face this every day. And I take this responsibility with great pleasure; I am privileged. What judgment do I give to Juventus? It è s not my job to give judgment to my work, we work to improve the good of Juventus. I leave the judgment to you, è rightly soì".
