Juventus are ready to go for the title again and have already made a good start to the new season, after taking two points from three games in Serie A.
The Giallorossi will have to get past Atalanta, Napoli and Roma in their first four games this season to claim their first trophy since 2009, and the only reason they will have any hope of doing so is if they can beat Bologna, Inter and Roma.
“We want to be champions again, to win the Serie A and the Coppa Italia,” said Manfredo, whose side beat Juventus 4-1 at the Stadio San Paolo last week.
“The team that has a good chance of winning both is Napoli.
It’s not just that they have two fantastic strikers, it’s also the way they have the ball, and they have good players like [Fabio] Nesta, who has a goal and assists.”
There is an important thing: they play with speed, they have a good mentality, and if they score they will score.
“Juventus have already lost two of their opening three matches, including a 3-0 defeat by Napoli, but the coach expects the Bianconeri to be a more competitive team in the second half of the season.”
They have a lot of quality, but they are not the best team,” he said.”
But we have a very strong team, especially the midfield.
If they have some problems they can play well against us.
“If they win the Coppio, they will be better than us.”
