Juventus coach Max Allegri admits they weren't at their best for victory over Cagliari on Tuesday night.

Moise Kean and Federico Bernardeschi struck for the 2-0 win.

Allegri said, "(Alvaro) Morata was getting irritable, he wasn't attacking the space or moving, so I preferred to move Kean into a centre-forward role. Morata then relaxed, had a bit more space when starting from wide and it worked well."

Allegri also spoke of Adrien Rabiot's performance.

“I think Adrien can really do damage with his shot from distance, but perhaps it's because he plays internationally for France in a two-man midfield, he just doesn't make the right movements or has the right timing to get the shot away.

“He didn't read the game well at all today and we have to do a great deal of work with him. I asked the lads to try shooting from distance today and Bernardeschi had a couple before finding the net."
