Max Allegri revealed how Juventus neutralised Fiorentina, but will “take it one step at a time” for the Scudetto.
The Bianconeri registered a sixth consecutive Serie A victory, fighting back to beat the Viola 3-1 despite an early spot-kick.
“I can only say Juventus are going through a good period of form, we have another two games before Christmas in the Coppa Italia and Serie A,” the Coach told Sky Sport Italia.
Max Allegri revealed how Juventus neutralised Fiorentina, but will “take it one step at a time” for the Scudetto.
The Bianconeri registered a sixth consecutive Serie A victory, fighting back to beat the Viola 3-1 despite an early spot-kick.
“I can only say Juventus are going through a good period of form, we have another two games before Christmas in the Coppa Italia and Serie A,” the Coach told Sky Sport Italia.
“As we were so far behind, it’d be important to close up even more before the break.”
Incredibly, Juve were 11 points behind Roma in Week 10, but six rounds later are one point in front in fourth place.
“At this moment the team is playing relatively well, though we have to improve technically and make fewer mistakes.
“It has to be said that it was not easy to close up so much considering where we were six rounds ago and six consecutive victories are not easy in Serie A.
“I considered Inter one of the favourites pre-season because they invested heavily and have an experienced Coach. They are four points clear at the top now, so remain the favourites.
“Juve have to follow our own progress and not anyone else’s. There are many points still up for grabs and we have to take it one step at a time. We initially had to catch Milan and we did, then Roma, now we’ll see if we can overtake Napoli and Fiorentina.
“It will take something extraordinary to overtake Inter, though.”
Fiorentina had been unbeaten in six games, but capitulated in Turin.
“Nikola Kalinic had about 60 sprints in the first half, but we did well to block them off and Fiorentina didn’t have a shot on goal other than the penalty.
“On the other hand, Juve had several chances other than the three goals and forced a series of saves. We prepared for the game planning to block off Fiorentina’s strengths, which are the creativity of Borja Valero and Josip Ilicic.
“As time wore on, Fiorentina got more fatigued and we improved, so we took advantage of the extra space.
“Paulo Dybala is an important player and he will become extraordinary. He has improved a great deal in tactical and psychological terms, because playing at Palermo and Juve are two very different things.
“The trouble with Paul Pogba is that when things seem too easy, he relaxes and gets it wrong. Heels? No, only a cobbler should deal with heels.”
