The director has defended the club from antithetical talk.
Jan 23, 2010 2:19:00 PM
Juventus general director Roberto Bettega has put an end to the on-going debate around coach Ciro Ferrara as he reiterates the club's plans to continue with him at the helm.
Regardless of the Roma outcome on Saturday night, Bettega made it clear Ferrara had the full trust from the board.
"We have showed it with the facts that the will to continue [with Ferrara] is a precise one," Bettega told Sky Sport Italia.
"I hope that whatever happens the glass is still half full."
The director also delighted in Antonio Candreva's arrival, claiming the club is following strict policies on the transfer scene.
"Candreva is a Juve player, he is young, talented and Juve always look to strengthen with young players," he added.
Former Juve coach Claudio Ranieri claimed the club had lost some of its style during Friday's match build-up.
But, Bettega offered this response.
"It has never been missed. I don't know about Ranieri, he never got the chance to experience continuity," he continued.
"We always look at our opposition with high esteem; we know how to welcome them, and hope, if possible, beat them."
