Juventus have all but wrapped up the scudetto, and on Wednesday, the bianconeri will look for another major victory, the Coppa Italia. Ahead of the final against Milan, coach Massimiliano Allegri spoke at the pre-match press conference, commenting on many subjects including what has been rumored a possible departure from his job at the end of the season: "Gattuso? Rino is someone who is very passionate about football and is hard headed, he wanted to become coach, it's not easy to be on the bench of a club like Milan, he came from a tough situation at Pisa and has gotten great results with the rossoneri. The most important thing with Rino has been that after retiring and having been a champion, to get back into the discussion has not been easy, getting back from Lega Pro like Inzaghi. Formation? Cuadrado at left back also for next year? I don't know because Pjaca will return from loan... Cuadrado played well against Inter and he misjudged two crosses, but that is a question of getting used to the role, he can play there. Will Benatia play? Either he or Rugani will, next to Barzagli. Seventh scudetto? That has given me enormous satisfaction, I will never forget it, it has become part of my life. Future? I have to look to succeed tomorrow and on Sunday. Marotta's comments left me feeling happy, I have great relations with the club and we are in harmony: the squad has been upset a lot, but there have been players who've arrived at a high level and with moral honor, and this is what helps a team win. At the end of the year we will sit down and make plans for the future like every year, and that will be done with clarity. I have changed a lot as a coach, but every day I focused on the errors I have made to get better: I have grown since I started at Aglianese, then with Milan and Juventus I was part of two different clubs with the objective of winning. A still have some years..."
