Lazio coach Gennaro Gattuso confirmed the integration of LucaPellegrini into the squad before the match against Luciano Spalletti's Juventus. Gattuso declared that the midfielder has been reintroduced to the list and that "he will leave with us", underlining that the club has decided to make him available for the team again. The coach then clarified that he does not comment on the lineup, stating that he wants to give space to the other players and aims to put the strongest team on the field.
Regarding Taylor's performance, Gattuso praised his contribution on the pitch. He observed that when the team plays with chains, Taylor is able to “lower the pressure” and get the attack out of the first pressure. The coach praised his vehemence in phases of possession and non-possession, calling him a "very important" player in both the possession and recovery phases. He also highlighted his ability to cut and create solutions when the team works in a chain manner. Gattuso added that the choice between Taylor and Nuno for the central area will depend on employment and the development of the chain.
The coach concluded that Taylor is doing "very very well" and that his performance was a key element for the team. Lazio is therefore preparing to make the most of the skills of Pellegrini and Taylor in the next match against Juventus, with the aim of consolidating their position in SerieA.
