Ranieri : "Same Concentration, Will And Humility"
In the press conference on the eve of the match against Chievo Verona, Claudio Ranieri spoke of the positive moment of Juventus and Del Piero and of how important it is to remain with their feet on the ground.
"We have to keep the same concentration, will and humility. This must be our mission. Praise should be our fuel, vitamin but Chievo is not a bad team. They played well but were unlucky on a number of occasions. They just changed coach and will want to prove themselves. They will give a 110%".
Asked whether he intends applying a turn-over in the starting line-up, the Juventus coach said that there is the possibility that he will do so.
Speaking in answer to how far the team could go this season, Ranieri said : "We are a team built to make life difficult for all. Before we did so in Italy and now even in Europe. Winning at the Bernabeu isn’t easy. Emerging with a clean sheet at the Bernabeu isn’t easy. We have to continue in this direction".
When asked where his input in the string of consecutive wins can be seen the coach in black and white said that in 15 days no idiot can become Einstein and therefore his input could be seen in the 3rd place obtained last year.
"Tiago managed to emerge because he managed to get rid of the immense pressure wearing this shirt brings with it. There was also a problem of adapting to different schemes. During training he always showed his worth and now he is managing to do so also on the field. My doors are never closed to anyone".
A question with regards to Del Piero was inevitable and so was the answer a rather predictable one.
"It’s 3 years since Alex is performing well. He did well in the Serie B, he did well last year and he is doing well this year. Alex is going through a very happy time in his life in general. He works hard for the team, and even though his goals are very important its his dedication that’s even more important".
