Juventus midfielder Claudio Marchisio is confident they can put last season's nightmare behind them.
Juve will kickoff the season with new coach Gigi del Neri.
"After what happened with Juventus and at the World Cup in South Africa we need to recover more from a mental rather than a physical point of view," Marchisio said.
"Before leaving for South Africa we managed to speak with Del Neri. He perfectly understood the situation and gave us the right rest period. Now we are all ready and motivated for the new season.
"It will be difficult to do worse than last season. Now we are starting again with many novelties: a new set of directors, a new Coach, new staff and also many new team-mates.
"We must all have the same ideas, get united and start well quickly."
