14:18 – Allegri takes his place in the press room: the Juventus coach’s conference now begins.

What reaction do you want to see after defeat?
“The players were sorry and angry. We’ll talk about the championship on Monday, and tomorrow is another competition, but we need to focus on this tough match against a team that is doing excellent things. It’s a one-time game and you have to play by these canons.”

How is the team?
“We just started again, had a few races after a couple of months off. It’s true that there was a World Cup, but except for Rabiot and the Argentinians, they all came out earlier. I haven’t decided anything for tomorrow yet, and I have to make some assessments on training.” “Aside from Bonucci who is still out, only Pogba will be unavailable due to flexor soreness. Unfortunately, when you’ve been out for months and you’ve turned up the intensity, the pain comes out and so time is needed.”

Should we expect something more from players like Paredes?
“The whole team had a bad first half on Sunday, and the team had a good second half after changes, including setup, and finished with a lot of shots on goal. But what matters is winning games, we didn’t win above all because we played the first half where he gave Monza three goals on three occasions, one of which was narrowly disallowed. Paredes alternated between good matches and less good ones, and played a lot at the beginning because Locatelli was out. Maybe he needed training, these months are important and he has to help us like everyone in the team.” .

How is Vlahović?
“He has to play from the beginning.”

Is Chiesa ready to play as a rookie?
“Apart from Vlahović who will probably play as a starter, I have to decide on behalf of the others. Tomorrow’s match can last 120 minutes, so the substitutions will be more important. Tomorrow morning and after finishing I will decide the line-up.”

Will the offensive trident lead to the return of the quadruple back?
“Chiesa-Di Maria-Vlahovic’s solution is the one I had in mind from the beginning, we set out to play like this. Then the ups and downs of football, Pogba’s exit, Di Maria after a month and a half of the game, Chiesa not coming back, led to finding a different line-up. The Players When they came back several months due to injury Keiza was 10 months and Pogba 6 months since July but he hasn’t played since April it’s tough you need a little patience Pogba played a good game in training last week after a week he had some soreness and needs to get back on track Right, it takes a while.Just as it was for Chiesa who stopped and started again, maybe in two to three months he will be at his best.However, the team must maintain the balance that we haven’t achieved in the last few games in a number targets received.

Comment on the numbers of the Italian market compared to the English market?
“It’s objective stuff. Juventus created a good transfer market, achieved their goals with McKinney who wanted to leave and found a good solution. Ake went to play, Zueli to Pisa, Pellegrini to Lazio and maybe we’ll meet tomorrow. There’s no point in making comparisons with English football. The 20 Italian teams are 2 billion, and the Premier League teams have a turnover of 8. The ratio is 1:4.”

Could the fact that tomorrow’s competition is different, without penalties, help?
“An important game with a goal different from the championship. After the good reaction with Atalanta, because we came from the moment they got 15 points from us two days ago, there could have been a rebound and so it was. Those 15 points are not excuses, the club will be interested to see where We can stand up for ourselves and try to get those points back.But that should not be an excuse or justification, we have to go on the pitch and do what needs to be done in the best possible way.I think it’s the first time that 15 points are knocked out of the standings, and you go to bed In second or third place and you wake up at the bottom.The Italian Cup match must be done in the best possible way, and we will do our best.”

Di Maria said it’s hard to stay focused. How does the boss train this part? How is Cuadrado?
“Cuadrado is in good shape, he’s fine. After the shock, it takes a while to recover and you have to be good at doing it quickly. We have to keep in mind that we have small goals, we are 13th and we have to get to 12th.” We have to get to who is going step by step.”

Could Pogba return on Tuesday and how do you expect him to do so this season?
“I’d expect a contribution from a player who’s done 15 days of preparation since April, 45 minutes and then stopped. Those are the times, his body needs to re-adapt and it’s going to take a while. He’s probably doing the half” Now, maybe a game, you have to navigate these situations on goal. sight. Knowing that from here to the end, you will need to make the most of it in the best way possible depending on when it feels good.”

How is Bremer doing after the last few races he seemed to be in trouble?
“Not with Monza, in general everyone in the first half, the second half was good. It’s fine, like all the others. You just have to work, do and react. Do something more to get the result”.
