Nah, last season it was a 523 in defending with Alves Barzagli Bonucci Chiellini Alex Sandro; Khedira Pjanic; Dybala Mandzukic; Higuain

I think his idea is to defend in two banks of four a la Atletico or Chelsea and hit them on the wings with AS and DC.

Really insecure about this lineup, really lacks strenght in the mid wihout Matuidi. If Moussa Dembele had a great game than Kroos will rip us a new one.

I'd go for something like this Buffon De Sciglio Barzagli Chiellini Alex Sandro Douglas Costa Khedira Marchisio Matuidi Dybala Higuain Costa playing like a RW, Dybala SS, Matuidi like a LCM and LW and when attacking Buffon De Sciglio Barzagli Chiellini Douglas Costa Khedira Marchisio...

Wrong thread.. ��

352 ffs, Licht - Asamoah on the wings fml

So you'd rather play 2 CM's or play Dybala as a winger?

True but he needs to play as a AMC/SS then, which means 2 cm's. I remember last time our midfield was crushed. I wouldn't take the risk. As a winger it wouldn't be wise either, I don't think he can follow Marcelo up and down the entire time.

Yeah, I know it's unpopular to say but I really don't think we should consider ourselves on par with Real Madrid. They crushed us in the final due to a very naive approach. I'd go with a full defensive approach and keep a clean sheet. Rather go 1-0 or 0-0 than 2-1 or 2-2

Buffon Lichtsteiner - Barzagli - Chiellini - Alex Sandro Khedira - Marchisio - Matuidi Douglas Costa - Higuain - Mandzukic 10 behind the ball at all times. I'd bench Dybala for this one, sorry. But our defence and midfield are way too fragile to play with 2 CM's
