Juventus have made a decision: for the time being they will continue with coach Luciano Spalletti. The leaders have chosen to trust the coach, even though this trust is linked to future results, while the November break also brings with it the shadow of the former great Antonio Conte. In this way, most of the responsibility for the upcoming matches has practically been transferred to the players. This was also the meaning of the speech that Carnevali gave yesterday in Continassa, before the decision to put the team in the group until the match against Napoli: we expect a reaction from you.
But how have the players received this situation? According to what "La Stampa" writes, some dissatisfaction with Spalletti's way of working has emerged from the group, which can be summarized in the idea: "A lot of words and little real training". In short, a lot of theory on the part of the coach and little intensity during training sessions. The physical aspect, in fact, is one of the main points where criticism has focused after the losses against Lazio and Genoa.
"Tuttosport" further delves into this issue: inside the locker room there are players who think they haven't trained enough. The newspaper notes that the massage room is always full, while there are many free spaces in the gym. Perhaps it is no coincidence that yesterday, during the daily checks carried out by the medical staff, special attention was also paid to the weighing process of the footballers. A way of showing that at this moment nothing will be left to chance. For the record: everyone resulted within the established parameters and successfully passed the check.
