Max Allegri surprised many by dropping Paulo Dybala for the third Serie A game in a row.
“The Juventus squad has so much talent, if Dybala isn’t in the starting line-up, then Massimiliano Allegri will have his reasons. He chose the best XI for this game.
“I thank Allegri for saying Roma are among the Scudetto contenders, but the favourites are Napoli, then Juve and Inter. Allegri’s words do motivate us, though.
“This game is an important test to understand the mental and sporting growth of the team against a very strong opponent. We want to know if the message is getting through every day.”
