Juventus interim manager Igor Tudor will face his first big test in just his second game in charge Sunday evening, as the Bianconeri head to Rome to face one of Serie A\u2019s most in-form sides in Claudio Ranieri\u2019s Roma<\/a>.<\/p>\n Tudor, who took over the club after Thiago Motta was fired midway through the March international break, has clearly outlined his ambitions for change, and a reversion back to what he sees as Juventus\u2019 core principles \u2014 ones rooted in a dogged determination to win, and improve with every game.<\/p>\n So far, despite a 1-0 victory against Genoa last weekend, the fruits of Tudor\u2019s compelling rhetoric are yet to be determined. Tomorrow, the Croatian will have the opportunity to put his word into action as Juventus face off against the perennially dangerous Roma, coached by veteran and journeyman coach Claudio Ranieri.<\/p>\n Before the game, Tudor sat down to discuss the team\u2019s development, which with every new day improves, and to discuss tomorrow\u2019s tactics. Tudor, who has had a full week with the squad now that everybody is back from international duty, spoke of his new team as one in transition, hinting that the Motta period had weakened the squad\u2019s mentality, and he is now toiling to rebuild it.<\/p>\n \u201cThis week \u2014 the first \u201ccomplete\u201d one together \u2014 went well, we got through a lot of work,\u201d Tudor said. \u201cWe concentrated on both phases, on set pieces, on physical preparation, on details, and on individual development. The lads are well prepared and are showing a desire to express themselves at their best. When I returned to Turin I found a team going through a difficult period, but we have started to rebuild together and we are working well. How long will it take to see clear changes? I don\u2019t know, I can\u2019t know, but I know that the boys are putting their hearts and souls into it.\u201d<\/p>\n
