It was an occasion that led to calls for Luciano Spalletti's departure from certain supporters, while some fans in the stadium turned on each other and started fighting in the stands: A symbol of the current mood surrounding the club.
Bremer, has been serving as the club's matchday captain in the absence of Manuel Locatelli, also threw himself under the spotlight after criticising unspecified members of the Juventus squad during his post-match interview , accusing them of becoming 'scared' and 'hiding'.
"It is true, the coach gives indications, but we are the ones who need to put it into action on the field," the Juventus defender said after full-time on Sunday.
"However, there are 11 players on the field, plus the five who come off the bench, so I cannot just carry everyone. I try to give a hand, I talk to them, but they all have their own character. We can push them to a certain point, but that's all, some have more character than others.

Tuttosport described it as 'an elephant in the room' when Bremer returned to the dressing room at Continassa on Monday, but adds that he was the first one to address the awkward issue, which was appreciated by his colleagues.
