What They're Saying
Juventus centre-back Giorgio Chiellini (via Football Italia): "The change of coach gave Juventus something more because in the first two months of the season, we wanted to prove that we were still the best. We are grateful to [Antonio] Conte and recognize everything he did here, but we also want to prove to everyone and above all to ourselves that we are a great team. The technical project has not finished and needs to continue growing."
Genoa manager Gian Piero Gasperini (via Football Italia): "We will get back on track. There are many games to go, but this defeat [to Chievo] was frankly unexpected. Everything went a bit wrong."
