Malian midfielder Mohamed Sissoko has hit back at critics who claim that Juventus bought him because they couldn't get his former Liverpool teammate Javier Mascherano.

“Trust me, I am better than Mascherano. I will win titles,” the 23-year told Tuttosport.

Sissoko had a disappointing start with the Old Lady last week-end against Cagliari, 1-1, and was replaced after 67 minutes.

Juventus midfield has been struggling over the past two years and it seems that Sissoko needs more time to adapt to the Italian style.

Juve boss Claudio Ranieri said that the Malian midfielder needs to be more cautious in the Serie A to avoid bookings and suspensions.
