Coach Massimiliano Allegri, Carlo Pinsoglio and Moise Kean were behind the microphones following Juventus-Milan, the first friendly match of the season, which the Bianconeri won on penalties in Los Angeles.
ALLEGRI
"Considering it was our first game, we had a good run-out against a Milan side who already had a game in their legs. The boys played well, even if we are only at the beginning of our preparations. The positive result always helps, but obviously we need to grow physically and also technically.
"Chiesa did well, he has a different physique than last year, but it was normal - we knew that last year would be a difficult and transitional year. I am very happy above all for the spirit and desire he has, which demonstrate his willingness to contribute in what will be an important year. Weston also came back well, he's in the team and I'm happy with how he's working and what he's doing. Weah had a good impact, he's a good player but above all he's very intelligent and immediately made himself available.
"We must always have the ambition and desire to do our best, and above all, to do something important. Last year the team finished third in the league, there is a good base, a good spirit, but we are still at the beginning. We must have patience, and see what squad we will have at the end of the transfer window, but above all continue to work with enthusiasm and great desire."
PINSOGLIO
"Starting well was important, winning always helps as well. We are very happy. We are under construction, we are in full preparation mode, now we have to work to be ready for when the championship starts. Chiesa? He got off to a very strong start, he's working hard and he'll certainly be in top form when the championship begins. We are all very united."
KEAN
"We are happy to have started like this even if it was only a friendly match. We put minutes in our legs and started well. I am always ready to contribute, after every game I always try to look at my performance to always improve. I got on well with Chiesa today, it's nice to play alongside him, we can create many chances. Our goals? When you wear a Juve shirt, you always have to have big goals. I'm happy with the arrival of Timo [Weah] who can give us a big hand, we've known each other for a long time. I remember we met in an Under 15 or Under 16 match and we've remained close ever since."
