Allegri is the man under whose guidance last year’s explosion came: “For sure last season was a turning point for me because I scored a lot of goals and gave some assists. But as I always said, in football they don’t only care about goals, you can have an excellent season even if I scored a few goals and made a few assists.” And again at the job where he feels most valued: “Honestly, I like to play on the left flank more, because I’m left-handed and things come more naturally to me.
