Fabio Capello, former Juventus coach, strongly criticized the management of Thiago Motta. For the legendary technician, the dismissal of Italian-Brazilian was a “Evidence”. “No one wanted to continue with him, neither fans nor the team”he told the Gazzetta Dello Sport. “Don Fabio”, however, salutes the courage of Igor Tudor, the new coach, who “Knows the environment of Juve perfectly”.
According to the 1994 European Champion Coach, the Motta initial project – planned over three years – was precipitated in one season, leading to failure. “The results dictate everything, but management must also assume its choices”he underlines. The club, fifth in Serie A and eliminated all cuts, has not supported the recent scathing defeats against Atalanta (4-0) and Fiorentina (3-0).
Thiago Motta did not make old bones at Juventus.
Thiago Motta, for his part, reacted soberly. “I experienced intense moments, with the desire to progress every day”he said. He thanks the club and the players, but remains marked by a catastrophic season: early eliminations, summer investments not profitable, and a cloakroom lacking in cohesion.
Management deemed “amateur” and hopes for Tudor
On the other hand, Daniele Adani, former inter-manager of the Inter, castigated the “amateur” management of Juve. “Localing Motta during an international truce, without preparation, is unacceptable. The problems come from management, not just from the coach. »»
Conversely, Nicola Amoruso, former Bianconero striker, supports Tudor: “He is the ideal man to straighten the bar. He knows the club and has the necessary courage. »»
Tudor inherits a team to rebuild, with immediate expectations: relaunch Vlahović and Yildiz, and aim for 4ᵉ place. His first challenge? The match against Genoa this Saturday. For Juve, in search of identity, the countdown is launched.
