"I've always been lucky because in the teams I've coached I've been stuffed with champions. Di Maria is one of them,"

Allegri said of the forward, who signed a one-year deal ahead of the 2022-23 campaign.

"The bad luck is that he's 35, I would have liked him younger so he could play all the matches. He came in and did extraordinary things."

Allegri wasn’t impressed with

’s win though, as they had to work not to concede.

Football is strange: on Thursday we slip once and draw, today maybe you concede a goal on 1-0 and who knows,"

he continued.

"Football is this, there are games you deserve to win and you don't win, and you win others in which you deserve less. It is hard to explain."

He added:

"Playing here is always complicated. Spezia always creates something because they have quality. I think they have an excellent chance of saving themselves."+
