Thiago MottaJuventus coach, analyzes this to the microphones of DAZN the Bianconeri's return to victory in the match against Monza: “Nico and McKennie are also very willing to play in different roles, they do it perfectly because they are high-level players with the right attitude. For a coach it's a pleasure to work with players like that.”
Did Koopmeiners' release make you lower your spirits a bit?
“That too, but not only that. We have almost always suffered with teams that close down and then start again. It was important to close the game, it's part of our growth path. In the second half they came to attack, we closed down but we didn't have we made the transitions well. We could have started again with quality, but we didn't do it well.”
Will we see Nico Gonzalez behind Vlahovic again?
“It depends on the moment and the opponent we are going to face. Nico Gonzalez can do it perfectly, he also knows how to link up with midfielders, it is a position he has already played in. He knows how to play in different roles, and it is something special, in training he knows how to play with one or two touches and turn. I see him well in that position, he is convinced he can do well there.”
It will be an intense month, could the first calculations be made already?
“For me the calculations will be made at the end of the season, we have to go on the pitch to always play our game at our best.”
