Galatasaray coach Mancini admits Juventus predictable

Galatasaray coach Roberto Mancini admits Juventus are becoming predictable after their Champions League draw.

Mancini was satisfied with their 2-2 draw on the night.

"I don't think this is the best Juventus, as shown by their recent struggles, but that's normal for a team that has won everything in two years. They also face teams that are more closed down and block the spaces.

"We had decided to sit back and wait for them to ensure we wouldn't leave space behind the defence, as we knew Juve liked long passes with Andrea Pirlo over the top.

"The first half went well, but after the break we lost something in terms of stamina and Juve were able to pin us back more."
