“Defence? Within a season, there are times when you concede more goals or a little less, the same goes for scoring, the Coach said at a Press conference.

“Pjanic, for example, supposedly stopped scoring free kicks. The season is so long that it’s made of moments, and the best solution is to manage these moments.

“There are no failures or promotions, you just manage the players according to their condition.

“When there are big games, we always talk about balanced contests, it was like that with Napoli and Inter, and it’ll be like that with Roma…

“Numbers in the long run are never random, they say everything about the value of Juventus.

“Bernardeschi? He’s grown a lot, he ‘s always been decisive whenever he’s played. He dropped off in his last big game, but it’s normal to lose your rhythm when you play less.

“He has important physical and technical qualities, plus he’s growing, especially in terms of mentality. He’s improved a lot but still needs to improve further.

“Matuidi? He’s a bit of a tramp, but it’s all good, I’m just joking! It means that he’s running here from morning to night.

“PSG? They’re built to win the Champions League, but the Champions League is tough to win.

“Alisson? It’s still difficult to talk about him, I see him twice a year. I can certainly say that so far, he’s made a few important saves because Roma give away little.

“Schick? I don’t have any regrets because the club had an important transfer campaign last time out, signing important young players.

“I don’t have anything to envy Roma for because I already have a top team and they’re certainly a rival for the Scudetto.

“I can’t say whether their loss of form after facing them is a coincidence. They’re doing important things, but they can also go through a spell when things are a bit more difficult.

“Cuadrado? He could play as a full-back tomorrow.”
