While praising the overall project, Mauro suggests a less cautious approach might be needed to ignite the attack. ............ Regarding Douglas Luiz, Mauro is critical of his limited playing time: “From what we’ve seen in Empoli, it was right to rest him. In Tuscany, he was embarrassing, he was walking. If he should be used little in the future as well, then yes, it would become a problem considering he was paid 51 million.” ............

Luiz is currently struggling to find his best form at Juventus, and the midfielder is already under pressure to deliver. ............ Based on his performances so far, Luiz seems like a misfit, but it might be too early to make that judgment. Costa believes that Luiz will eventually shine. ............ “For Douglas Luiz, a period of adaptation is normal when you come from another championship. It happened to me too. I came from a top club like Bayern, but Serie A is a particular tournament. Douglas has great technique and imagination: all you need is patience. Douglas Luiz is beyond discussion and I’m convinced that he will carve out an important role like the one Pjanic had in our Juve. I hope Douglas wins 3 Scudetti like I did. Just to make you understand” ............

Luiz, who arrived in Turin this summer as one of Europe’s most promising talents, has surprisingly failed to live up to expectations, with his performances falling short of what many anticipated. Since his move, the Brazilian has had a tough time adapting to the club’s system and building chemistry with his new teammates, leaving fans puzzled and impatient. ............ Igor Tudor, who is no stranger to the ups and downs of professional football, has urged patience and defended the midfielder amid the scrutiny. Drawing from his own experiences, Tudor pointed out that even the most renowned players can endure a difficult beginning at a new club. ............ Tudor remarked, “I scored in my first match against Perugia, I started off great. If they chose Douglas, it means he’s good; even Platini struggled at the beginning. The strong ones always come out.” ............ For Luiz, the challenge is clear: he must accelerate his adaptation process and demonstrate the qualities that initially led Juventus to invest in him. The sooner he begins to meet expectations, the sooner he can put an end to doubts and cement his place in the team’s future plans.
