Consecutive defeats, Juventus continues with Spalletti

Juventus have made a decision about their future and in this future they are sure that there is a place for Luciano Spalletti. The Tuscan coach has convinced everyone of the quality of the team's play, but he, like everyone else, depends on the results.

With the result in the Champions League match and the early elimination from the Italian Cup, for the black and whites, positioning among the top 4 teams in the championship at the end of the season is a must.

In other words, Spalletti is not affected, as long as Juventus does not fail to achieve its objective, qualification for the Champions League.

Because it is not just a matter of status, but more of an economic issue. Without the income of the Champions League next season, a project will be revisited that since January was with reduced dimensions due to lack of funds. Chief Executive Comolli comes from a market with zero budget and could see himself again in the same conditions in the summer months. He may even be forced to resize the team again by putting up for sale some important element in order to balance the accounts, when in fact it will be necessary to strengthen the team especially in the attack department and at some point the coach would also be involved. Between coaches who prefer the beautiful game and those who choose results, Juventus is always on the side of the latter. Thus, the aesthetic increase of the maneuver is a good thing, but this must also be accompanied by results and this must happen immediately, starting with the very delicate challenge of Saturday against Como.

The classification says that fourth place is on target, but the current situation shows a Roma that is growing again thanks to Malen and a Napoli that has been affected by numerous injuries and that seems to be increasingly in difficulty. The race today is between these teams, Milan is separated by 8 points and is currently far away. It is true, without Kalulu's red card punishment, the challenge at San Siro with Inter could have ended differently. But the tragic transfer of Istanbul against Galatasaray says that the counterattack was very serious.

Thus, initially, Como will be thought of and then the return match with Galatasaray where the great upset will be attempted. But the focus remains on the championship, as that is where Juventus' future is decided, but also the possible confirmation of Spalletti on the Old Lady's bench.
