Del Neri insists Juventus should be happy with campaign

Juventus coach Gigi del Neri insists they have had a good campaign.

The Bianconeri's 2-2 draw with Chievo ruled them out of the race for a Champions League spot, but they are still in seventh place and only the top six go into Europe.

"I was pleased to hear patron John Elkann show his support, as he has clearly evaluated the effort I always put in to my work," insisted the Coach.

"I have never regretted my decisions and nobody can teach me my job. We have done some good things this season, as don't forget we are the team with the least defeats behind Milan and Inter.

"It's true we drew many games as well, but three draws or three wins cannot change the judgment on an overall campaign's work. It would be banal.

"We have completely rebuilt the squad that we started with in July and big changes do lead to big difficulties. People said I'd find it difficult to lead a group of champions, but that was not the case and I'm happy with the rapport we've forged."
