Defends Szczesny: 'There is no discussion'. Bonucci: 'We rediscover humility' (ANSA)


The championship must be archived until tomorrow evening, now the head must go all on the Champions League: Juventus, in fact, cannot afford to make mistakes even in Sweden. "We come from a disastrous start to the championship, we must try to find a positive result to lay the foundations to face the group in the best possible way: we are not among the favorites to win the final, but we want to try" explains Massimiliano Allegri on the eve of the match against the Malmoe. "A physical team with some good individualities - he adds, speaking of tomorrow night's opponent - will need an excellent performance made up of technique and personality, being careful not to give them dead balls". Only one point in three games against Udinese, Empoli and Napoli, what is happening to the bianconeri? "We need a greater sense of responsibility, we must improve and grow in mischief and in managing moments - adds the coach on the cure to get out of the difficulties of this early season - because in Naples, for example, Rabiot should have continued after the short rejection of Szczesny and we would not have conceded a goal. Furthermore, we have not even won a free kick from the edge of the area. "

And on doubts about Szczesny, Allegri takes sides in defense of his goalkeeper: "He is reliable and of European level, if they had told me he would have made three mistakes so I would have thought 'you are crazy': he will play tomorrow". Bonucci also pampers the Pole: "Tek has always said that he thinks about criticism: he just has to rest assured, it's a moment that will pass and it's up to us to overcome it as soon as possible". In Sweden, Chiesa and Bernardeschi will be missing, who have remained in Turin to heal their respective ailments, but all the South Americans will return: Dybala will take back a place in attack, Cuadrado and Alex Sandro can act on the flanks, while Locatelli starts in front of Bentancur in the median. And Kulusevski? "I don't know if it will start from the beginning, I'll decide tomorrow morning" the words ofcoach on the Swedish. "There will be De Ligt in the middle of the defense," he adds. Bonucci hopes that Juve will soon throw away the ugly mask they wore: "What we have seen up to now is not the real Juve, it cannot be this: - says the defender - there is a desire to improve and to look beyond, whoever wears this shirt must know that it is not like the others and there are no excuses ". "There is a problem of continuity on a mental level and we have to work on it as a team and as individuals - explains Bonucci, encouraging his teammates - and we don't need a lot of chatter: we have to find humility by teaming up because it is only with the group that we resume the path that it is up to Juve "."What we have seen so far is not the real Juve, it cannot be this: - says the defender - there is a desire to improve and to look beyond, whoever wears this shirt must know that he is not like the others and not there are alibis ".
