    Quite possibly. That being the case, though, I'd be inclined to try and use Pereyra to offer a little width high up on one side so that at least one of the midfielders didn't feel the need to push forward so much. That'd also make it easier for him to find space rather being in the crowded...

    I don't like either system. I think Juve probably had a better balance when they were playing 3-5-2. If they were to play Marchisio instead of Pirlo and sign themselve a genuine, good trequartista, 4-3-1-2 would seem a more logical system. - - - Updated - - - The problems are certainly less...

    About what? - - - Updated - - - So, since, I last posted here, Aberdeen have cleared their debt of approximately £15m and have motored to the top of the league. Six wins in a row in the league. No goals conceded in that run. - - - Updated - - - :shifty:

    Can't say I've been terribly impressed with Juve's move to 4-3-1-2. There are continuing problems with balance that haven't been addressed. Far too often Juve are getting themselves caught in situations where the fullbacks and the midfielders on the sides of the diamond are too high up and...

    Xherdan Shaqiri - Winger - Bayern Munich

    Yeah, the cup-tied aspect tends to get overstated as an argument in transfers. Sure, if two players were equal in every other regard you'd pick the one that isn't cup-tied, but you shouldn't turn down the chance to make a good long-term signing because they'll be unavailable for a fews games in...

    [SCO] Scottish Premier league 2014/2015

    Well this is starting to get rather troubling. We had built a great foundation last season and just needed to figure out a way to score a few more goals at home to convert a few draws into wins. To do that, McInnes has decided to play two strikers, but he hasn't yet figure out how to balance...

    They aren't really a party for thinking people. The disturbing thing is that the other parties are moving right to try and compete with UKIP instead of simply offering sensible alternatives.

    Stephan Lichtsteiner

    Juve can't get 10m for Lichtsteiner. If he doesn't sign a new contract, he leaves for nothing in the summer. So you couldn't get more than a couple of million for him in January if you decided to sell.
