Juventus coach Maurizio Sarri is delighted to be fit and in charge for their clash with Fiorentina.

Sarri missed the start of the season due to pneumonia.

It wasn't easy to sit out," said Sarri.

I thank the doctors who treated me. They made me understand that I had to take a small step back. But I remained calm because my technical staff were doing great.

It wasn't easy or gratifying to name my Champions League squad, but it was necessary.

I'm disappointed because two very important players won't be involved. These difficulties, however, show the great strength of our squad.

It's normal that when a player suffers because of a strong and radical decision, there's an emotional aspect to be taken into account.

We must give him the opportunity to get everything off his chest. I'm at the right age to understand his reaction.

Right now, I'm only thinking about the League. Our attentions must be focused on tomorrow."
