The victory against the Dynamo Kyiv brought the calm back into the house Juventus, ma Andrea Pirlo now he has to deal with the collateral damage of the Olimpiskiy match, the ko of Giorgio Chiellini. The captain’s right thigh flexor injury, after only 18 minutes of play, is not serious but will force Pirlo to put pressure on the only regular defenders left at his disposal: Bonucci, Demiral e Danilo.
In addition to Chiellini, in fact, he has also been unavailable for some time Matthijs De Ligt, recovering from shoulder surgery. He could be among the squads both in the championship match againstHellas Verona both in the highly anticipated match against Barcelona in the Champions League, but it is unlikely that Pirlo will throw him into the fray without first having studied a gradual recovery plan.
In addition, the Brazilian is also out of the game Alex Sandro, who suffered a strain in his right thigh flexor last September 18 and has not yet recovered despite being over a month ago. In fact, it was expected that he could return after stop for the national teams, but the Juventus medical staff preferred to postpone the return.
Before Szczesny (The Buffon, depending on the turnover of the goalkeepers), the Juventus coach will therefore be forced to make a virtue by adapting Juan Cuadrado without giving him particular offensive tasks. A role that the Colombian has already played with a spirit of sacrifice, although his characteristics are certainly not those of a quarterback.
So go on with Bonucci, Demiral e Danilo: the three will certainly be the owners, unforeseen permitting, against the Scala on Sunday evening and the Catalans on Wednesday, a tour de force that should end when the injured players will be available again.
However, it is not certain that Pirlo cannot decide to risk a boy from theUnder 23: it happened at the start of the season with Frabotta e Portanova, with fair results.
