“Lately we’ve been very solid defensively, but had some moments of real passivity today. It’s better that they happened tonight rather than on Sunday. I hope it was a one-off, as the team knows full well how fundamental the defensive movements are in the next game.

“There are five rounds left, so saying it all depends on the match in Turin is reductive. It’s a difficult fixture, just as it would be travelling to Paris or Manchester.”
