The Juventus coach on the Frenchman: “We’re sorry because we thought we had Paul available to give us playing time but that’s not the case”
“Tonight we have to play an important match against a team that is playing well and is very strong. We have to try to live up to it”, said the Juve coach to Mediaset in the immediate pre-match of the Italian cup quarter-final match against Lazio. “Should we have a different approach than in the match against Monza? But the approach with Monza was good, for the first ten minutes. Then we conceded goals too easily – continued Allegri -. Right now it’s normal that we see things in a negative way, both for the results on the pitch and for external vicissitudes. Football, however, gives you the chance to make up for it and tonight is a possibility, then starting tomorrow we have to go back to thinking about the championship”.
new experience
—
“The most difficult moment of my career as a coach? It’s a new experience for everyone: we have to live it in the best possible way, trying to do the best we can because it’s a duty we have towards the club, towards the fans and above all towards ourselves . Are you resigned to Pogba? No, there shouldn’t be resignation. We’re sorry because we thought we had Paul available to give us playing time and instead that’s not the case. Unfortunately, these are things that happen when a player has been coming for six months, almost nine, of inactivity. It takes a little patience, he is working well to try to return as soon as possible, but this is not possible at the moment. Let’s see in the next few days but as I said we have to navigate on sight”.
