Friday, August 27th

13.41 CEST - Press conference with Allegri: How did the group take it?

"He told his teammates this morning. I am not surprised at anything, in football there is the market and there are the needs of individuals. We just have to look forward, tomorrow there is an important match like the one with Empoli. We must be very angry for Udine, we left two points for an unexpected event like those of Monopoli, which we did not know how to manage. Otherwise this need for Ronaldo would have been handled in another way, because we had three points. ".

Are you afraid that McKennie might leave?

"He doesn't have to leave. He has goals in his legs, he has to improve: he's an attacking player, we're in very good shape on this level."

Is Locatelli ready to play from the start?

"The safe formation that I already know is the one with Napoli. I don't know tomorrow's one, but the one with Napoli yes. What will it be?

13.40 CEST - Press conference with Allegri: A week ago Ronaldo told you that he wanted to stay. What has changed? Did the Udine bench have an influence?

"No. On Saturday I told him that he would be on the bench in Udine, he told me he would stay. Then there is the transfer market, the situation has changed and it must be accepted: at Juve the players who like to stay must remain. It's all simple: we have a good Champions League group to overcome and a lot of things to do with a team that only has to think about improving. "

Now what will you need on the market?

"There are 3-4 days left ... We are on the line, if we can find a player who improves the squad well, otherwise we'll stay with them, we have Arthur out who is about to return and the squad is excellent. I'm happy with who I have, we have to focus on the ones we have. "

13.39 CEST - Press conference with Allegri: Will he take advantage of the fact that players can now prove that the victories weren't solely due to Ronaldo's victories? The thought goes to Dybala.

"I don't know, I only played for one year. I know we played the last two games, the friendly against Atalanta and in Udine in the league, we scored five goals and we suffered three. To win, you need the best goal difference . If we only conceded one, we had three points. The goals have them all, from Dybala to Morata, from Kulusevski to Chiesa, McKennie, Rabiot, Bernardeschi. The goals will be distributed: Cristiano is a great champion, I wish him the best of luck where he will go to play, he has given a great contribution and there is only to thank him for what he has given to Juventus. "

13.37 CEST - Press conference with Allegri: Disappointed by Cristiano's behavior?

"No, he made his choice. Things pass, Sivori, Platini, Del Piero, Zidane, Buffon have passed to Juve. Great champions, it is a law of life: Juventus remains the most important thing and the basis for get results. It has been three years, he has given his contribution, now he goes away and life goes on, as it is normal to be ".

The difference will make how quickly we arrive at a right mental aspect, that allows us to win games and manage them in moments like it happened in Udine ".

We played a good game, then we can improve in terms of the game and in the second half we made a lot of mistakes technically. We are working on it and improving our condition. Tomorrow there will be a good atmosphere at home and we will have to be ready. "
