Allegri after the win: “Our goal is to be in the top 4. But now we can ‘dream’ of something bigger too”

The Bianconeri coach after the success in the Turin Derby: “We must return to a trait from the past: win, win and win.”

Max Allegri enjoyed the victory in the Turin Derby and also their position in the table that is starting to become interesting for his Juventus: “We are two points behind Inter? The goal is always to get into the top four, but that doesn’t mean we can’t dream of other things – were the words of the Bianconeri coach on Dazn.

For Allegri, it was his 13th ‘Torino derby’ victory in his career, equaling Giovanni Trapattoni‘s record: “I am lucky because I have coached strong teams that allowed me to achieve this. We expected a tight game today; they were very aggressive, and we couldn’t break through.”

“We started growing towards the end of the first half, the team played a mature game, and I’m pleased with that. Tonight there was much more confidence in the movement of the ball play, unlike in Bergamo where we had a bad game but still managed to get an important result.”

“We need to stay with our feet on the ground; and we need to return to what has been Juventus’ norm for years, which is winning games, and today we showed the right attitude to do that.”

He also had a few words for Yildiz, who came on in the last minutes: “He will become a wonderful player, the way he controls the ball… He does it with astonishing calmness. He is clever and sharp.”

An update on Chiesa‘s condition: “He will be with the national team; he was feeling a bit better today. I hope he recovers; our goal is always to send as many players as possible. This week, we remain with four.”

Finally, a thought for Paul Pogba: “Personally, I am very close to Paul; I met him when he was a young guy, and I can only be there for him. Football loses an extraordinary player, different from all the others. Now we will see what the verdicts say; I hope the best for him.”
