Ex-Juventus coach Dino Zoff believes the recent woes at the Stadio Olimpico have their roots in the early stages of the campaign when the Turin giants got carried away with their flying start.
Juve collected maximum points from their first four games to stake their title credentials, but a single win in their last nine outings has left them 17 points off the top in seventh place.

Juventus sacked Ciro Ferrara last month and Alberto Zaccheroni took over on a caretaker basis after a host of names, including Zoff, reportedly refused to take the reins mid-season.
“I heard whispers that wanted me to coach the Bianconeri, but there was nothing official in it,” maintained the former Italy manager.
“I would have considered it, but not for too long…”
