Juventus have improved and the third consecutive victory within a week is proof of this. Nicola Legrottaglie seems to agree with this statement: «Things are improving in the sense that we are slowly getting back to our level. A few days cannot change the situation but we are starting to feel strong and more confident and we know that teams will be finding it hard to beat us. We found the way to comeback even when we’re losing».

Juve have changed: «Everybody has a share in the transformation and this includes Mr. Zaccheroni but we all are making our effort».

Legrottaglie is playing with more consistency and certainly with great personality, however the defence has different faces and characteristics: «I like to play the ball and when I don’t manage I try to put in more ardour. Giorgio has different qualities. He is a great defender and I think he can become even better then he already is. We try to compensate for each other».
 
Today Zaccheroni initially fielded a 4-strong defence: «Sincerely looking at the movements of a 3-strong or a 4-strong defence the two can interchange depending on the movement of the players. The only difference is the midfield, because the positions are different. I think this team can play using both formations. The coach explained both well to us making the premise that he does not have one fixed formation but can change according to the opponents».

The hardest part of today’s match for the defence according to Nicola: «I have to take advantage of my height. Zalayeta is note say to mark. According to me he is under-rated as a player and I am sure he can be important even for teams who are fighting for titles. I think he is very clever and therefore it is not easy to mark him».

There is one negative detail in the latest victories: «The only bad point is the fact that we have not yet managed to emerge with a clean sheet but I am sure we can get there».
