Gianluigi Buffon on exclusive š£ to the Juventibus ā¬ļø
āCalciopoli? I told the club it you want I’ll stay in Serie B, I have no problems. And since I know you also have financial problems, you can also take away 15% of my salary. I’m doing it because I believe in the club, for the people, and for those who made me who I amā.
āBeing apart of Juventus means being apart of one of the most important realities of the Italian people. This comes with a lot of liability and this means accountability not just with the owners but to the fans and ordinary people. Youāre not just representing a team but a community of people. Juventus presents a family that has not just influenced football but the Italian society and industry. You have to be an example thereā.
āThe new Juventus needs to focus on the game and the coach. The players are at a high level, which is required at Juventus but they must not only do what theyāre asked to by the coach but to also have the personality to make their own decisionsā.
āLooking at current profiles Perin has personality, so does Danilo and maybe even Koopmeiners can become a technical leader. Lacking personality is normal in a renewed team. When this occurs the coach needs to become the leaderā.
āCardiff? Nothing happened except what normally occurs in those situations. The coach tells us what to do and urges us to go on. No one raised their voice in that occasion. It was a useless profiteering piece that we didnāt deserve as a group of great depth. We couldnāt counter that narrativeā.
āTevez excited me like few others, it had nothing to do with being a good player or champion. It has to do solely with how he affected the team and the behavior he did so with. Things that most donāt countā.
ā2016/2017 scudetto? After the Sassuolo match I had the perception that we had found the right way in order to perform at our best. We could have made a run at it but not necessarily win it was my thought. Credit goes fo #Allegri who in his second year was still a little unpopular with the fans and that start couldāve derailed him but instead he showed that the more pressure there was the more coolness he keptā.
