"He spoke to me and the team on Monday. He was surrounded by people who had given him some bad advice."
"He has a great winning mentality and now we need to get him back in shape physically."
"That game actually gave us strength, because we were up against the best team in Europe. We rather took our foot off the gas and controlled the match today."
"The situation has deteriorated a lot since I was here."
Ademola Lookman returned to Atalanta after a failed attempt to join Inter and rejoined the squad following a period training away. Atalanta refused to allow the move to a domestic rival, and Lookman entered as an 87th-minute substitute in a 3-0 win at Torino. Nikola Krstović scored twice, Kamaldeen Sulemana added a goal, and Marco Carnesecchi saved a Duvan Zapata penalty to preserve a clean sheet. Lookman missed the first three Serie A games while attempting to force the transfer and was reported to have been poorly advised by his entourage. Atalanta had lost 4-0 to Paris Saint-Germain midweek, which appeared to provide extra motivation for the domestic performance. The Torino match featured home-supporter protests against president Urbano Cairo and a deterioration in the club situation since Juric's previous tenure.
