Alessio Tacchinardi shared his opinion on the coaching change at Juventus on Maracanà, TMW Radio. The former Juventus player stated: “I believe Igor will opt for a 3-5-2 or 3-4-2-1 formation. His main contribution will be his game philosophy, characterized by aggressive, dynamic, and vertical football, aimed at revitalizing a Juventus side that has recently struggled tactically. He will bring clear ideas.”
He added: “I am eager to see if Koopmeiners will play a key role as one of the two attacking midfielders behind the striker or in the central midfield. Furthermore, this Juventus team needs to feel supported. The team`s decline occurred because Motta made empathetic errors. Igor is aware of this. He is tough but a good-hearted person. The fact that only two players bid farewell to Motta is telling. This silence speaks volumes.”
Tacchinardi continued: “Can Tudor revitalize Vlahovic? Vlahovic will be transformed because he is currently underperforming. I think the first person Tudor will speak to is Vlahovic, as he is crucial for Juventus right now. Kolo Muani is a great option to play around him. Motta clashed with Vlahovic, and I believe Tudor will make him central to the team. Looking at the future, I think Igor can instill `Juventus mentality`, intensity, and especially a hunger to win matches. The team desperately needs someone like him.”
