“The current Juve of Allegri is one that possesses more character and personality than any other Juventus team I’ve played in,” he said to ABC.
“Capello’s was the strongest team, and with Lippi the one that was most enjoyable.
“Tennis fascinates me: not just as a sport but also as a starting point for my sporting activities. I’m a fan of Federer: we often speak and excites me with his mental strength.
“We must always try to have that. Psychologically, tennis is the hardest sport. If you win you get the credit, but if you lose you have no possibility of finding excuses and placing the blame on others.
“My leadership? A good leader must step in only when it’s necessary, otherwise you become boring and lose credibility.”
