Allegri raps Chiesa: He must realise we are Juventus

Juventus coach Max Allegri rapped Federico Chiesa after their 1-1 draw with AC Milan.

Allegri was critical of the attacker after the poor result, which leaves Juve winless in Serie A. Chiesa was a second-half substitute.

He snapped: "He has entered in a difficult moment in the match.

"I needed him to take the ball to the opposite half. He must grow and become aware that we are at Juventus."

Allegri also said: "When there is a decisive moment in the game, you have to play in a certain way. When playing for Juve, the ball has a different weight than other teams. You have to be responsible for being on the pitch with the right ruthlessness and this is what we are missing now."
