Luciano Spalletti was criticized after a frantic end to Sassuolo that saw Juventus score but also concede twice in stoppage time and fans calling for Antonio Conte’s return.
Chief Executive Giovanni Carnevali rushes to his boss’ defense Radio Anch’io Lo Sport (via Sky).
“It’s not in my job to change managers frequently. I don’t think about it at all. We have to plan and build. There will be some disappointments along the way, but in the end there will also be some satisfaction. Spalletti is an extraordinary coach and his performance on the pitch is definitely one of the best. The evaluation is constant, but you have to know where you are in the next three months.
according to Corriere dello SportThe coach and the new front office worked side by side on the team, agreeing on every signing and crafting a solid 4-2-3-1 formation with two solid options for each role. The Old Lady spent a lot of money as they made no money from anyone, but their plans were quickly scuppered due to serious injuries early on.
Our thoughts on Juventus and Spalletti
He’s looked pretty lackluster so far, but a coaching change so early would be ridiculous. Even though the last game ended badly, they weren’t in a full-blown crisis. They must quickly find reference points and technical leaders, as well as a new lineup that can perform despite their absence, but Serie A waits for no one. Conte wasn’t the man to take over mid-season, but his shadow will be felt throughout the year.
