“I am pleased that President Andrea Agnelli reiterated what I often say, which is that we cannot rest on our laurels. We can take nothing for granted.

“We’ll try to get back to winning ways tomorrow, as this is an important game and the lads are ready. In the last two matches we reaped a lot less than we deserved to.

“Over the last two years Juventus have won almost everything there was to win and rediscovered international appeal. But the past no longer counts. We have to look forward if we are to repeat our success.”

“Considering the games we have played and those ahead of us, we will rotate the squad. Fortunately we have two tactical systems that also allow us to change during the games.”

“The injuries have reduced our attacking options, but I have great faith in the medical staff.”

"This is part of the same rumours that want to destabilise us so that we can't win again."
