You Need A Winning Mentality To Play For Juventus - David Trezeguet

Juventus star David Trezeguet talked about the club's winning mentality.

David Trezeguet will no longer be wearing the famous Bianconeri colours after announcing his decision to leave the club

Tomorrow Juventus will host French champions Bordeaux in their opening Group A match in the Champions League. The team are coming off three straight victories in the league, so their morale is high, which seems to have been the case ever since coach Ciro Ferrara stepped in to replace Claudio Ranieri.

Striker David Trezeguet, who scored in last weekend's win against Lazio, talked about the club's winning mentality.

"Juventus have to go and win everywhere," he said to SkySport24. "I can say that because I've been at Juve for ten years. If you draw, no one is happy here. When a coach arrives at Juve, he has to win every Sunday, no draw matters, all that matters are the three points.

"The defeat against Chelsea last season was a very heavy one for us. But I think that, as in every league, there are different categories of teams. Juve are part of those that have to win every Sunday, as well as in the Champions League and the Coppa Italia. This is the winning mentality, the mentality they have taught me in these ten years."

Asked if the much-criticised Ranieri had that winning mentality, Trezeguet said, "I won't say whether the coach had a winning mentality or not. The coach did his work. I think the club was very clear with him, he did extraordinary work, but Juve are about winning, if you don't win that's what happens."
