As quoted by Football Italia, Cassano took another jibe at Cristiano Ronaldo and pointed out that Juventus have been underwhelming in Europe after his arrival in Turin. The 38-year-old also went on to say that the Old Lady would win the Serie A title without his goalscoring exploits, as was the case before his arrival at the Allianz Stadium.
Cristiano Ronaldo has nothing to do with Pirlo’s ideas at Juventus, says Cassano
Cristiano Ronaldo has been in stunning goalscoring form for Juventus this season despite their struggles. Under new manager Andrea Pirlo, the Bianconeri have blown hot and cold domestically and are in serious danger of surrendering their Serie A crown to Inter Milan.
Despite Cristiano Ronaldo’s heroics, Juventus are currently seven points behind Antonio Conte’s side. And Cassano believes the Portuguese star chose the wrong project as Pirlo’s philosophy does not go hand in hand with his style of play.
Juventus’ 1-1 draw against Hellas Verona on Saturday came as a massive blow to their title hopes, as they dropped points when it mattered once again. Cristiano Ronaldo scored yet again, but Pirlo’s side could only manage a point away from home and are left with a mountain to climb to retain their Serie A crown.
