I think we play short corners because it mitigates the danger from counter-attacks. I don't necessarily agree with it, but that's the only thing I can think of.

2-Why the subs in the 80 minute?. Carletto was doing them pretty early...but conte was super late as always...even when knowing the players where out of gas.

I agree, Llorente in particular looked dead by the end of the game. I suspect it was because Conte was trying to drain every drop of energy from the balanced system he created.

We did not play 4-3-3. It looked more like a 4-5-1.

Then why have all your defenders in your opponent's box? That kinda kills the purpose, doesn't it?

 

[JCK]

It was a 4-5-1 all the way, that was crystal clear.

What the fuck is this now?

Juve to play the Sunday before the Gala game too.

Can you really call dis 4-3-3? It looked more like a 4 4 2.

Well it wasn't a back three, which is what he is generally moaning about.

4-5-1 was obvious

Llorente lone striker and Marchisio and Tevez on the flanks

There isn't really any difference, just a shift in mentality when defending or attacking. You can't genuinely say that Tevez was played LM, because he wasn't and isn't, he was LWF and did his usual defensive duties.

him and marchisio did much more defensive duties that a lwf and rwf would usually do, even when in possession it was more of a 4-5-1

Again wit this stupid discussion... To quote Michael Laudrup:

"Formations are just numbers"

What did he say to the team at HT? When they came out for the second half we seemed so lethargic for the opening ten minutes, and by that point CR7 had already equalised.

Real started to push, while in the first half they conceded our half and didn't put pressure there.

No way.

The team lost to Madrid mainly due to individual errors, like with the 352. So defense was not compromised, they didn't have a lot of chances.

On the other hand, offensive end was vastly improved. Look how many chances were generated in both games. The team is much less predictable.

I really hope Conte sticks to this formation. Even though that is highly unlikely to happen. He said that he considers this 433 as a more defensive approach than 352.

exactly my point.

However on offensive end I wouldnt consider what we saw yesterday any different from the usual. I dont think we have been bad offensively this season at all. We always scored goals then gifted the equalizers and the lead to opponents.

I love how conte can switch between two formations depending on the type of opposition we are playing. I think we should always play the 4-3-3 against teams that play mostly from the flanks like madrid with such beast wingers but keep the 3-5-2 for teams that dont.

I'd like to see a 4-3-3 with Vucinic, Llorente, and Tevez leading the line, Licht, Barza, Chiello, and Caceres in defense, with Pogba, Asamoah, and Vidal bossing the midfield. It could be an interesting alternative in Europe

Well you're not the only one. But at least we ditched 3-5-2 in Europe; now we only need a little bit tweaking to do.
