Andrea Pirlo faced the media for the first time since being appointed as the new Coach of Juventus on August 8, 2020 replacing Coach Maurizio Sarri. On Tuesday 25 August, Pirlo answered questions from invited journalists at Allianz Stadium and discussed several topics including his football vision, the Bianconeri players and the mentality his Juve needs to have to continue winning.
Here are the questions and answers as presented via Juventus official website.
STYLE OF PLAY & MENTALITY
“I want to bring back the enthusiasm, with proactive football and domination of the play. I said two things to the lads: ‘you must always have the ball’ and ‘when you lose it, you must get it back quickly’.
“I’m convinced that I’m in the right place at the right time. Tactically, we could play with either three or four at the back. I have no fixed models. We must always be willing to make sacrifices, when there is a goal we all have to reach it together.”
THE BIANCONERI PLAYERS
“Arthur is a quality player who can cover many roles and will be very useful throughout the season. Paulo Dybala is an important player and he will be part of the project.
“Quality players can play together on any team. The important thing is that everyone makes the necessary sacrifices and thinks about the team.”
