Juventus could have been 2-0 up before Fiorentina scored against them in Serie A yesterday.
That is not the first time a similar sentence is written about the Bianconeri, yet they have failed to improve on that part of their game.
After beating Spezia 2-0, Max Allegri would have been expecting his men to earn another win against La Viola.
However, the game ended in a stalemate and Allegri bemoaned their lack of killer instinct in his post-match presser.
The 55-year-old said, as quoted by Football Italia:
“In the second half, we dropped a few players, but the thing to absolutely improve on is that when you have the chance to go 2-0 up, you have to take it. Those are the key moments that decide seasons and we still don’t have that nastiness.
“You can also miss the shot, but I didn’t see meanness. You have to get used to that again, it’s not all easy. That’s all, then I don’t get angry at the guys for anything. From that moment then came the corner and the equaliser, which changed everything.”
Juve FC Says
This issue will cost us many points and wins in other competitions.
Our lack of killer instinct is one reason we have had three draws in this campaign already.
If we continue like this, the 2022/2023 season will end as bad as the last one.
Hopefully, our players will become more ruthless in front of the goal and take the chances that fall to them.
Okay, but the team would need more chances to score more goals. (no attack formation + no ball possession + no creativity = no/few goals).
the narrative that our `killer instinct` has cost us points and not allegri`s dinosaur tactics is absolutely outrageous. he has his excuses ready for our psg mauling, while our players regress daily and morale plumetts on the pitch and in the stadium.
you have to be envious of United right now. Ten Hag improving their players. It`s all about the coach, and allegri is a disgrace. the players are not robots, a positive coach is needed. I repeat we have the players to challenge for the scudetto, every day with allegri in charge is damaging. the media`s protection of allegri on all levels is disgusting. Again, if you miss one shot but have two or three more, like a normal team will that`s fine. fraud dinosaur with a 1990s mind se. agnelli, your boy will grind us into the dirt…wake up!
100 percent agree. He has to adapt to the current generation of football or get out of the way. It’s a shame we didn’t give pirlo a better chance. Shameful in my opinion. Ronaldo hampered the team. We had a better understanding of what he wanted to do in the last game to save 4th place. Imagine if we could have played like that his whole season at the helm
