I understand he's bummed, but ultimately the team is stacked with CM depth. The best thing he can do is train well and compete. Sarri went for the players who adapted best to his system in the early days - clearly. They tend to be more experienced ones. Can if he trains well offers clear...

Don't think it's necessarily offensive vs defensive in the sense that Sarri's teams will score more goals. Sarri believes in defense by controlling play more than Allegri - he also believes in defending higher up the pitch. I'd be interested in their possession #s versus output. You can score a...

Inter playing so dirty Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Exception to the rule :P

Welcome to Italian coaches in Europe lol.

I think it was a 4-3-1-2 given that Bernardeschi commented on liking playing that position as a TQ. Also I love how directly Sarri answers questions. Allegri was always more cryptic/ you would get less insight on how he was thinking about things. Sarri tells it how it is lol. Obviously has...

haha was writing too quickly. Cuadrado compared to Cancelo:p Yeah. Cuads is definitely a more coachable player. Allegri wasn't too hot on him at first because he'd sometimes do unnecessary south american things (flair) lol. But he simplified his game and showed an ability to play where the...

Cuadrado keeps the game simple compared to Cancelo. Cuadrado tends to do 2 things in possession - pass it off, or dribble to draw a foul. Cancelo would do one thing - bomb up the pitch/ dribble to beat his man. He's very offensive but his lack of minutes under Guardiola suggest that having a...

IMO he organizes the D better. Neither are particularly good on the ball though lol.

And Ramsey in Khedira's position? Ronaldo-------Dybala ------------Costa-------- Matuidi--Pjanic-Ramsey something like that?

Totally. He had a great game. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ronaldo wasn’t bad. He just wasn’t clinical. He created a ton of changes and almost scored several times. He just didn’t convert well. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Matuidi is the most awkward looking fullback ever

iirc Sarri would use the TQ position as almost a shadow striker...a player that is less of a playmaker and more of a guy who will make runs beyond the strikers. That is more of a Ramsey. This formation switch is ideal for Dybala. You basically got a great rotation now between 3 guys for striker...

Obviously just speculation, but would imagine that errors related to youth wouldn't be as severe. Even if you've trained as a fullback for 3 years in the youth system and with the under23s, that's still 3 years where you practiced the movements, vs a player who has never played the position...

That’s why I think safest choice is Beruatto. A guy like Matuidi or Bernardeschi are more likely to make basic tactical errors due to a lack of experience in the position. Beruatto is more likely to make errors due to age and a lack of experience in his career/ being at a lower level. But he...

Interesting Bernardeschi has played fullback before. He did it against Lech in Europa. I distinctly remember him playing wingback with Paulo Sousa but in this game it looks like he ended up playing as a fullback. Obviously not anyone’s first choice but perhaps he’d be an option in an emergency...

Buy me fullback pls to replace injury prone fullbacks Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I think Ramsey can get there. Rabiot will need to change his characteristics - ie: increase his work rate.
