Juventus coach Andrea Pirlo presents the challenge againstUdinese scheduled for tomorrow at 8:45 p.m. at the Allianz Stadium on Juventus TV.
How did you find the team after the Christmas period?
“We feel good after a few days of vacation, I found a team very eager to restart after the last bad performance. We have also recovered almost all the players so we are going to make a good start to the championship again ”.
What game do you expect tactically against Udinese?
“It is a difficult game, Udinese are having a good time. It is a very physical and well-organized team, with very good players even on the counterattack. So we will have to be careful to make a canny run and make estimates about his two forwards and about the midfielders who are very technical and we know one, who also played here with us. It will be a very difficult game, especially physically ”.
What did you say to the team when training resumed?
“We talked especially about the game that was played against Fiorentina, which was completely wrong based on the attitude towards everything. We couldn’t finish the championship like this in 2020, there was a nice meeting where we talked and also discussed future goals. It was productive. “
What are you satisfied with these first months and what would you rather not see again?
“I would not like to see the game played with Fiorentina again. For the rest we have made a good path, growing and improving in many aspects. I am convinced that we can do even better because we have everything to do it ”.
Is January a decisive month for your team?
“Yes, it is an important month with many games, many competitions including the final of the Super Cup and therefore we will have to face them in the best possible way with many players available. There will be room for everyone because playing every three days is difficult and takes energy, so we will have to be prepared to play every game. “
What is the most important thing you have understood so far as a coach?
“I understood both as a coach and as a player that judgments should be made in a more generic way and also a little more thoughtful, whereas perhaps when you train one day you shoot yourself up and the next day you did nothing good. But he was used to this as a gamer by now, so it’s not new. Being the coach of Juventus you face a lot of difficulties, so you have to take on a lot of responsibilities, but I’m ready for this too. “
How is the squad physically?
“They are fine, they also caught the last wounded like Arthur, like Demiral. Giorgio (Chiellini ed) has been training with us continuously for a few days, so I hope to have them ready for the next matches as well ”.
What do you ask for in 2021? Both in football and off the sports field?
“Especially outside because we are going through a difficult time with this pandemic. The most important thing for everyone would be to return to normality and live with greater serenity. We hope to have great satisfaction regarding football ”.
