Juventus manager Massimiliano Allegri attended his pre-match press conference in Turin ahead of the team’s trip to Rome where they will face the Giallorossi tomorrow night.

“Roma have conceded only 5 goals at home in 11 games, they’re like the best in Europe. It will be a good game in a packed stadium,” Allegri told reporters.

“Pogba? He is fine, I liked how he came into the derby. He’s still got ways to grow, for now he’s an excellent solution from the bench. Milik will be back after the break, Kaio Jorge is not yet available.”

“Mourinho? I’m happy to be compared to someone who has won 26 titles. He’s doing a great job in Rome. It’s a club that hasn’t fought for four top four for a few years. It would be a shame if he won’t be there, I would like to see him on the pitch. In my opinion, a coach who is sent off can be given a fine but then he should still be able to go to the bench.”

“Dybala? He is showing he is an important player for Roma. Tomorrow we will face him knowing his characteristics, he should be given special attention because he is very dangerous in the penalty area.”
