There is a video circulating online which has led fans to openly accuse Allegri of having led the player to simulate.
Reaching the Italian Cup final, after overcoming Lazio despite the 2-1 defeat in the return match, can perhaps be considered at the moment the only positive note of Juventus’ season.
And to say that this season seemed to have started in the best way for the team coached by Massimiliano Allegri. in fact, Juventus had been the only one, during the entire first round, to keep up with Inter and prevent the Nerazzurri from starting a solitary breakaway towards the championship.
And many, having arrived at the beginning of 2024, were now convinced that Allegri had finally managed to shape the team he had in mind from the beginning. Instead, the Old Lady after the defeat against Inter, she suffered the same psychological breakdown which had characterized the two previous seasons of this Allegri Bis.
That’s the real problem for the Bianconeri of having lost that winning mentality which in recent years had led it to dominate the championship and win nine consecutive championships. Never like in recent years, Juventus always tends to collapse in decisive moments of the championship.
The argument between Allegri and Yildiz
And the impression is that Allegri himself has become even more cautious in recent years and wait-and-see than he was previously. Just think of the episode that happened a few weeks ago, in which he is seen scolding Yildiz, in the final minutes of the match, for having tried to attack the opponent’s area rather than bringing the ball closer to the flag.
And maybe really these very prudent attitudes and aimed at the mere preservation of the advantage acquired on the pitch, may have encouraged some players, such as Federico Chiesa, to simulate fouls for the sole purpose of wasting time.
The fans outraged: blatant simulation by the former Juventus player
This is also one of the reasons why many Juventus fans hope that the club will sack Allegri at the end of the season. Meanwhile, yet another mockery of the accused Tuscan coach has erupted on the web that he also influenced his former players in this sense.
In fact, it happened that during the match between Roma and Bologna, who saw Paredes on the pitch, having landed in the capital after the disastrous season played last year against Juventus, became the protagonist of a dramatic simulation. In the images circulating on Twitter, Zirkzee can clearly be seen approaching the midfielder who however falls to the ground in an inexplicable way, without the Dutchman touching him.
