Massimo Bonini, former Juventus player, expressed his frustration for the Rossoneri team during an interview on Tuttomercatoweb.com radio, on the "Maracanà" programme. The coach, who has led the team in the past, underlined that Juventus "lacks balance" and that tactical confusion is a problem that is reflected in the result.
According to Bonini, the team is full of talent but is unable to fully exploit its qualities. “Players have the ability to overcome opponents and score extraordinary goals, but they often find themselves in unlucky situations, with rebounds preventing chances from being converted,” he said. The commentator highlighted how Juventus "does not occupy spaces adequately" and that the players "run too much" instead of maintaining the defensive structure.
The old player also made a comparison with Roma, who, according to him, "fill the spaces and play in a more compact formation, even with 10 players". Bonini criticized the lack of a clear attacking strategy, noting that wingers often "cut inside and shoot", but that center forwards fail to capitalize on these opportunities. “With two strikers and balls in the middle you create more difficulties,” he added, suggesting that Juventus should make better use of the individual characteristics of their players.
Another point of discussion was the role of Kolo Muani. Bonini stated that the young striker "is not a first striker" and that the coach should find a way to make him feel important and exploit his potential. “A good coach is one who knows how to highlight the qualities of his players,” he explained, criticizing the lack of clear ideas on the pitch and attributing the responsibility to the technical management.
Finally, Bonini concluded that Juventus must find a way to make the players "in the best possible way", avoiding confusion and creating a balanced structure. His message is clear: the team must review its tactical organization to return to competing at higher levels.
