Patrice Evra is “not satisfied” with the season so far, but new buys must learn “it’s one thing to play for any team, quite another to play for Juventus.”

The Bianconeri were jeered after a disappointing 1-1 home draw with Lyon in the Champions League, which left them two points off group leaders Sevilla.

“I’m not saying that everything is fine and we are playing great football, because I too am not satisfied with the performances of this team, as we can do 10 times better,” Evra told Sky Sport Italia.

“I’m not saying that everything is fine and we are playing great football, because I too am not satisfied with the performances of this team, as we can do 10 times better,” Evra told Sky Sport Italia.

“However, we’ve only been together for three months. There are new signings and it’s not easy, because it’s one thing to play for any team and quite another to play for Juventus.

“Here you cannot get anything wrong. You get a draw and it’s the end of the world, if you lose a game then it seems as if someone has died.

“At the end of the day, it’s the objective that counts, which is to win the Scudetto and Champions League. As (Max) Allegri said, it’s not as if we’re going to achieve that today or tomorrow.

“I do agree that our style of football can be criticised. I want to win, in a calm way and that means controlling the game. We mustn’t think ‘oh we won and that’s the most important thing,’ then go out to laugh and joke in training.

“No, Allegri tells us what is good and what’s not working, we watch the videos back and try to improve. But it’s not easy, as this is a new group of talented players who still don’t know each other well and a team is not built in three months.

“I want people to judge us at the end and in that case they’ll call us ‘failures’ if we haven’t won anything.”
