“He looks quite emotional, even when they don’t score,” the German opined.

“Obviously he is involved in the game, but that’s not the most important thing.

“The very important thing is he is a great manager, something like the ‘Pep Guardiola of Juventus’ if you want.

“He created their special type of play and had a very successful time there and with the national team.

“It is quite impressive what he has done until now, but I don’t play against Antonio Conte.”
