Ahead of facing Lazio on Monday evening, Juventus coach Maurizio Sarri spoke to the press in his pre-match conference. The bianconeri are riding a three match winless streak, having drawn 3-3 against Sassuolo in their previous match. Sarri previewed the upcoming match this way: "Lazio is a strong team, they have had a great year. This year we've had struggles against them in every match. I have no fear over my future, we win and everything is fine, and if we lose the opposite. It's part of my job. I have a contract with Juventus and I wish to honor it. Now is the time to concentrate on the matches and on what lies immediatly in front of us."
"Right now it isn't important who plays striker, but the work that the strikers are able to do for the team. We need to be focused on being solid and consistent. The current period is an anomoly, it's made difficulty for all. But on the other hand we faced teams that were in great form. It's an important moment and we have several objectives to reach. I want to stay at Juventus, it's different than at Chelsea, where I wanted to experience England, and then decided on a return to Italy last summer"
