Spalletti changes attitude towards Juventus players after heavy defeat vs. Galatasaray

La Stampa reports that Tuesday’s heavy defeat against Galatasaray led to a change in Luciano Spalletti’s attitude towards his Juventus players.

Safe to say Juventus coach Spalletti is highly disappointed following a 5-2 away Champions League defeat against Galatasaray on Tuesday.

Spalletti ‘ unusually shaken’ after Galatasaray 5-2 Juventus

As reported by La Stampa, Spalletti appeared unusually shaken and uncommunicative when the team resumed training at Continassa the day after the match.

The Italian tactician had praised his players in recent weeks, even after a 3-2 loss against Inter last weekend.

However, since Tuesday, his mood and demeanour have shifted dramatically, prompting the coach to call on his players to reflect deeply and take full responsibility for their roles.

Spalletti argued that it’s “useless to talk if actions don’t follow”, and, according to the report, the Tuscan tactician is considering a tactical switch in the upcoming games, with a possible return to a three-man defence.

Juventus’ next games in Serie A and UCL

The coach’s priority, however, remains rediscovering the team’s personality and strong spirit.

Next Saturday, the Bianconeri will host Como in Serie A before the return leg against Galatasaray next Wednesday.
