Juventus goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny says he can handle his critics.

The Poland international saw his two howlers gift Udinese a 2-2 draw in the opening Serie A game of the season, then he was beaten in the 1-0 home defeat to Empoli.

“One of my strengths is that I have always been able to ignore what people say about my performances, positive or negative," said Szczesny.

“More often than not, these two extremes are exaggerated and the reality is somewhere in-between.

“It is important to always look forward and concentrate on the next games. We mustn't pay attention to the outside world."
