The words of the Juventus symbol man al The Times.
The word
Giorgio Chiellini gave a long interview to the British newspaper The Times in which he touched on various themes: from Juve, to retirement, passing through the Champions League and Mbappé. These are his words:
“The club has told us that they want to win and that after the winter transfer market there are no more excuses. The Champions? I’ve never won it and Juve has been missing since 1996. This year we can try“.
Final of Euro 2020
“The British had more pressure than us and this sometimes gives energy, other times it is an obstacle and we felt their tension. Despite the disadvantage at the end of the first half we were calm.
We were sure that if we held the ball sooner or later we would score. Keeping our cool was the most important thing for us and then we were lucky on penalties. A draw would have been the fairest result for that match“.
The opponents
“When I was younger I had a warmer temperament and needed an enemy, not a good relationship with opponents. Now, on the other hand, I like to share the moments of the match with them, I like to joke with them.
I am no longer aggressive, now they are not enemies, but friends who play against me. I also realized that by not wasting energy on the heat, I remain more lucid and concentrated. And so I got better“.
Mbappé and Pogba
“I played against Mbappe in 2017 for the first time, even though he was just eighteen it was clear that he was an incredible talent. I can’t imagine what it will be like in the future, but I really like his mentality.
Pogba is the LeBron James of football. When I first saw him train I thought he was not human. He came from Manchester United and I was expecting a great player, but I didn’t think he was a top player and instead he was. I’m sorry that now he can’t show all his qualities“.
“Withdraw? I’ll call Ibra“
Giorgio Chiellini finally he commented on his possible withdrawal and said: “Maybe I should call Zlatan and decide with him. We could make a video for Sky where we say: ‘What do you want to do?’, ‘No, what do you want to do?’, ‘Okay, we can decide together’ “.
