Conte is a former Juve coach and player and today reflected on his time at the Bianconeri.
14 years ago you arrived at Juve. Is Conte better today?
“I arrived in '91. As a coach? Yes, 14 years, well, I spent a lot of my football life there and it was a great experience, a great lesson from all points of view. I'm not just trying to become better compared to those years, but also compared to 24 hours ago, we have a duty to improve every day, compared to yesterday, two months ago…
“I feel much more complete, I am also 55 years old, important experiences abroad too, as a coach, important clubs, it is inevitable that you cherish during your journey and if you want to stay in the slipstream you must always study. have an evolution compared to yesterday, compared to the psychology of managing the group, the human relations with the people of the club, managers, presidents, you should never feel satisfied and always strive for excellence The great passion leads me to this doing burns energy.”
You always said Napoli had to be a nuisance, but what is missing to be more than a nuisance?
“We have to take the path, continue what we started. We cannot think that after six months we have already reached the end. That means that we do not really value time and work. We have to wait and continuing this path in the hope that it lasts as long as possible, it means working together longer.
“What is missing? There are some things missing, I am not here to underline, we are at the beginning. Even so far we have moved quickly, you cannot get up overnight and saying that you are ready to win. That said, we are working to optimize everything and bring out the best. That will come from the experience that I have, but I always want to be careful because I know that we need other steps. Then everyone can say what they want, but they are subjective, I know from within that is important It takes steps to say we are there.”
+12 on Juventus since the first leg, that is in 16 games and +13 in total. Negative points of Juve that do not get off the ground or merits of Napoli?
“Juventus are unbeaten in 21 games, no team has managed to beat them, so all these negatives do not exist. Many draws could have been wins and this gap has been created, let's not forget that last year we were 18- We were 20 points away from Juventus. We forget the gaps compared to Juve, Milan and Atalanta. Let's remember every now and then: it is important that today we all forget the gap with last year.”
