Not A Must Win Game - Ranieri
Juventus coach Claudio Ranieri doesn't think tomorrow's match against Sampdoria is a must win for his side despite the draw against Catania in midweek.
Juventus coach Claudio Ranieri talked about tomorrow's game against Sampdoria, which he expects to be a tough one, but urges his team to build on the positives from the midweek draw against Catania. In that game, Juve wasted a series of chances, but the Rossazzurri held out for a 1-1 draw.
"We drew, but that doesn't mean that this game is a must-win," he said. "We must stay calm and regain our energy and motivation, without playing with apprehension.
"Perhaps we lost two points against Catania, but we missed a lot of chances, and the goals will surely come in the future. I don't want to look for excuses, but the pitch was terrible, it was more for rugby players."
On this weekend's Milan derby, he said: "Of course I will be watching, but I won't be supporting either side. I will just be an interested spectator."
Ranieri thinks Samp are a team not to be underestimated despite the fact that they have yet to win a league match this season.
"There are no easy games and all teams are on the same level," he insisted. "Lecce did well against Inter, Genoa are in great form and also Sampdoria are always a difficult team to face."
