Gonzalo Higuain believes there are "too many critics" of a Juventus side that remain first in the standings.

Roma are now only a point behind the Bianconeri in the standings, but Max Allegri's side have a game in hand against Crotone.

"It does not matter," the Argentinian continued in an interview with Gazzetta dello Sport. "I am very pleased with the team’s start to the season.

"We are first, we are in the second round of the Champions League and the semi-finals of the Coppa Italia.

"And on a personal level I'm happy: I have scored a sufficient number of goals. Now I’m concentrating on improving even more in the next six months.

"To play in a new team takes patience. We are first in the standings and this means that we did things well."

The striker has already affirmed that his side 'must not make any more mistakes', but are there too many critics of the club?

"Yes, I would say yes. But this is normal at a top club. I’ve known how it works for the last 10 years.

"I was at Real Madrid for seven seasons and I learned my lesson.

"We must not listen to the criticism, we mustn’t even listen to praise when we win.

"Everyone knows when they have made mistakes and when we have done well: we should behave accordingly.

"Getting to 36 goals like last year will be difficult, but for the important thing is to score enough to win titles.

"The number does not matter to me, and thankfully at Juve there are others who can score and create many goals."
