“If you just defend in Turin, then you will concede sooner or later. Instead we want to prove that we can cause them problems,” said the Coach in his Press conference.
“I haven’t decided on my line-up yet, as I still have a couple of doubts on players who haven’t been at their best over the last few days. I’ll make my decisions after tomorrow morning’s training session.
“What is most important is that my players believe in themselves. We must be aggressive, determined and intense, putting our qualities on show.
“If we just sit back and defend, we will concede, so I see attack as the best form of defence. Juventus have such quality that you cannot get away with anything, so the performance is paramount.
“I expect my men to have a positive attitude, not worrying about conceding so much as trying to create problems for Juve.”
