The defence also started with three, moving to four when under attack, even though the Juve official graphics had it as a 5-4-1.
I like this. You can't put his starting 11 in a graphic. We're unpredictable even before the match starts.

It's early days, but I like his approach.
Based on the players we have, I really think this team is much better balanced with a back 3.
Sandro and cuadrado make better wing backs than full backs. I agree with pirlo that our mids are more suited to a midfield 2. Then it comes down to the front 3.
It's still early days and pirlo had only really had less than a week with the full squad. But me like.

What I love is that he is straight forward and clear that he adjusts according to what he has available and depending on the opponent. He said it and we could see it. Unlike someone else who forces the players to fit his system which he thinks it's the best thing since sliced bread and then goes to bitch that they cannot be trained.
An interesting article on yesterday's game.

"A glance at the numbers on Sunday could tell you already that Juventus delivered – hoarding more than 66% possession and attempting 20 shots. The game itself revealed so much more. Juventus were dynamic, fluid and fast, ripping into their opponents. The contrast with the team of last season was immediate and stark. Pirlo’s predecessor, Maurizio Sarri, had lamented his team’s ponderous passing, observing that “when you move the ball this slowly you get assaulted and you lose it”. On Sunday, Juventus were the aggressors. "

He looks like he would much rather be making wine, but wants to prove his worth as a coach because of reasons.
Its like that kid who's parents forced him to be an doctor because they be chinese or middle eastern when the kid was good at making music instead. So he does the job and does it well. But it is soulless
