In an interview with La Stampaformer Juventus goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon was asked to analyze Thiago Motta’s debut on the Juventus bench. After an interesting transfer window, the Bianconeri are still unbeaten but are in 6th place in the Italian championship due to several draws. After all, the Nazionale legend is confident and doesn’t want to see his former club get lost in pointless comparisons with Massimiliano Allegri:
“I have great respect for Thiago Motta and I am very confident in what he is building. When you work so deeply, it takes time. Motta is a careful coach, well prepared, used to certain levels: I know him as a teammate, they must give him a helping hand. Let’s stop joking about this: enough with comparisons between Motta and Allegri. We have won a lot, Thiago has only started, those who compare them are motivated by the desire to irritate the environment“.
