Juventus hero Di Livio: Bonucci deserved better treatment

Juventus hero Angelo di Livio doesn't see Fede Chiesa as a central striker.

However, Di Livio admits Chiesa reminds him of his father, Enrico Chiesa.

He told TuttoJuve: "Yes, Federico reminds me a lot of his father in his movements and shooting. However, I don't see him too much in that role, for me he needs to touch the line and he himself must start a little further wide.

"Then by working on it, he will certainly be able to improve a lot. He's a smart guy."

On Leonardo Bonucci's bitter departure for Union Berlin, Di Livio also said: "You must always respect those who do well and those who wear the shirt of a club for many years. Something was wrong with Bonucci, for me he deserved different treatment.

"Managers always behave differently with players at the end of their careers, but I think this wasn't totally right."
