Leonardo Bonucci says Juventus must ‘take responsibility’ and ‘leave the alibis to others’ after their draw with Frosinone. 

The Bianconeri have started their Serie A title defence sluggishly, taking only five points from their opening five matches.

Last night’s 1-1 draw with newly-promoted Frosinone was the visitors’ first point of the season and saw the Old Lady booed off the pitch by irate fans.

“I would’ve liked my first experience as captain of Juve to end differently,” Bonucci wrote on his Facebook page.

“I’m proud to wear the armband that has been worn by great champions who have shaped the history of Juventus.

“Unfortunately, we find ourselves with two points thrown away. No ifs or buts.

“Let’s leave the alibis to others and take responsibility to turn the whistles at the end of the match into applause.

“This is how you become a team, and how you become great.

“You need experience. We must bring back the hunger to bring the result home that has always distinguished those who have worn this glorious shirt and taken it to great heights, in Italy and in Europe.”
