Lippi reveals why he was surprised when Juventus appointed Thiago Motta

 

 

Legendary Italian coach Marcello Lippi didn’t expect to see Thiago Motta at Juventus, as he thought his former employers would have opted for a different profile.

 

The 76-year-old is one of the most successful managers of his generation. In addition to leading the Italian national team towards a World Cup triumph in 2006, he also had two memorable spells in Turin. Therefore, Lippi’s words still weigh heavily on the club’s supporters. ............

 

“Motta is a capable coach, focused, dedicated to his work, but after Allegri, I imagined seeing a figure who would connect with the fans more,” said the iconic coach in his interview. ............

 

 

Lippi also believes the new Juventus project will require some time although patience is a rare virtue amongst the big clubs.

 

“Juventus have embarked on a new path and time is needed, a luxury that is difficult to grant to teams like Juve, Inter and Milan who are fighting for the top spots.” ............

Former Thiago Motta’s teammate hopes he gets the time to build the team

 

 

Thiago Motta is the latest manager that Juventus have entrusted with their bench role, and he is keen to bring success to the club. ............

 

Unfortunately, Motta’s first term has been inconsistent, and his team is struggling to meet these lofty expectations. This is often a reason why managers are dismissed, as clubs look for results to match their ambitions.

 

Despite the pressure on his position, Motta has support from his former teammate Andrea Ranocchia, who understands the challenges that come with managing a club like Juventus. ............

 

“At Juve, you have to win, win and win again. The history of the club dictates it. You don’t change Juve, it’s Juve that changes you. I still haven’t understood what the future of this team is, what the project is, what or who pushed them to do that transfer market and where they want to get to. Juve needs Juve-like people. Thiago is special, I hope he’s given the time and the material.” ............

Has Thiago Motta found the right system for Juventus?

 

 

Juventus is now on a four-game winning run, the latest of which saw them defeat Inter Milan 1-0  yesterday. ............

 

Juventus has turned a corner in recent weeks, now claiming four consecutive wins in all competitions. The win against Inter Milan proved pivotal, as the team displayed strength and reliability in all phases of the game. That victory is likely to have turned many doubters into believers.

 

It seems that Juventus has overcome their previous tendency to self-destruct during matches, and it is the tactical adjustments that have brought a new sense of confidence to the Allianz Stadium.

 

Under Thiago Motta, the team has stuck to a 4-2-3-1 formation, which has now yielded four wins in their last four matches across all competitions. The tactical setup has provided balance, and the midfield pair of Teun Koopmeiners and Weston McKennie is now delivering results. ............

 

 After months of tinkering, Motta now seems to have found a system that works, and Juventus appears to be firing on all cylinders. ............
