Emanuelle Giaccherini has voiced his opinion that the remainder of February and the first weeks of March will be a decisive period for Juventus' ambitions in 2011-12.
The Turin giants have to cope with a congested fixture list following the postponement of two Serie A games in recent weeks.
However, Giaccherini feels that the Old Lady have the necessary squad depth to handle the pressure.
"With two games in hand, plus the Coppa Italia, we’ll play many matches in a short space of time and it will decide a lot," Giaccherini was quoted as saying on the Juventus website.
"The coach is good at rotating the team and has drummed the same mentality into everyone. I believe that’s been seen on the pitch, and those who have played less up until now have always provided a great response when called upon.
"We have a large squad and we have quality. Even with many games to be played, there won’t be any problems."
Juventus' next Serie A match is a trip to Parma on Wednesday evening.
