Juventus coach Max Allegri blasted back at pundits after their 1-1 draw with Nantes in the first-leg of their Europa League playoff.
Allegri took issue from the studio claiming he always plays for "1-0 wins".
He declared, I never said I wanted Juve to win 1-0, you drive me crazy with this rubbish. It's this clich that I want my teams to win 1-0, but that is not accurate. It's simple, look at all the statistics of my teams, I always had the best defence and the second best attack. You cannot escape from the statistics. Look at Milan and Juventus, that is my record.
My teams always scored 70-80 goals per season. You lot chat about nothing, I talk about numbers, that is the problem. I know you have to sit there and talk about nothing to fill time, but I don't. You imagined this, created the story and then keep spreading it. You see things abstract, I see what is concrete. You've got all the statistics, look at them.
In football, there is just one thing that counts: winning games. It doesn't matter if it is 1-0 or 5-0. Nonetheless, the fact remains my teams always had the best defence and second best attack."
