Luciano Spalletti Highlights Thiago Motta's Dissatisfaction with Juventus Results

Luciano Spalletti, the head coach of Italy's national team, has expressed insights into Thiago Motta's sentiments regarding Juventus' recent performances. Spalletti, familiar with Motta's coaching philosophy, stated, "I know Thiago Motta well; I understand his daily thoughts. His objective is clear: he desires a team that plays well and seeks continuous improvement across the squad. This ambition drives him to frequently adjust the lineup."

Spalletti further elaborated on Motta's vision, noting that he aims to develop a unified and harmonious team capable of dominating matches and making decisive choices. He praised Motta as a thoroughly professional coach with a promising future, adding, "I believe he is not yet satisfied with the results achieved so far, especially compared to what he accomplished with Bologna last year."

Addressing the recent incident involving Dusan Vlahovic's frustration following a substitution, Spalletti commented, "Sometimes, dissatisfaction stems from the inability to contribute more to the team." He also highlighted the development of Manuel Locatelli, stating, "This year, he executes his role with greater ease. Even when facing multiple opponents, he anticipates counter-attacks early and can disrupt the opposition's advances. In his current position, he appears as comfortable as if he were sitting on his living room couch."
