Juventus general manager Beppe Marotta has slammed the whining of their opponents this season.

Marotta insists Juve deserve their superiority.

He said, “For 10 years I was a director of less important teams and I always saw Juventus as a strong and winning club.

“When you're strong and you win there's a culture of envy and then your wins are denigrated or downplayed.

“When you win it's because you're stronger in every respect, unfortunately in our football there's a culture of envy and a bit of a culture of excuses.

“In Italy our opponents have often lost and blamed the referee or something else. That's the culture of excuses.

“It's a wrong concept that we need to eradicate, because it takes responsibility away from the players, feeding a losing mindset into them.

“If we've taken almost 100 more points than Napoli and Roma over these six years, and I don't know how many more than Milan, our clear supremacy is not up for discussion.

“Juventus are always under attack because it's a target which provides a lot of popularity and is therefore up there to be hit.

“There are 14 million Juventini and the rest are against us."
