The game was quite different in mid 2000s than it is now. Now it's all about pace, directness.
When was the last time a team won CL by playing a different formation than 4-3-3/4-2-3-1? Who are Juventus to change this?
The only way to pull off a 3-5-2/4-4-2 or any other formation is to play counterattack.
Do you guys realize how much better you played in CL with Giovinco on the field than Tevez? Tevez may be 100x better than him as a player, but he doesn't provide the width Giovinco provides.
You were struggling against Trabz at home, then Giovinco plays away you win comfortably. Then next game right back to Tevez.

atletico was able to achieve that last year with 4-4-2 or 4-5-1 with super hyper defensive team.. and am not saying we should be like them or shouldn't be like the teams you talk about.. but reality is that we are juventus and we have players like pogba vidal tevez asamoah morata marchisio pirlo giovinco.. use them the best way if it means 4-2-2-2 or even 6-3-1 so be it i don't care.. its about getting the best from the players with great tactics trust me.
Did you read what I said?

It's fine though. I understand your club's mentality and its supporters. Blame anyone but yourselves. It's Serie A's fault, it's the ref's fault, Atletico is too good, Bayern is too good, Galasaray is too good, Trabzonspor is too good.
It's never the fact that you play slow boring football, and the only difference between Italy and Europe is that in Italy you're in the winning end of 1-0, while in Europe in the losing end of 1-0. Ref help?

yea man.. i swear i said it during the match .. '' our biggest problem is that we are too strong to play like this ". we have the technical and great players to perform and guess what atletico gave us space and respected that we have a great midfield and let us play at their half.. but guess what we didn't attack with character instead we got nervous as a sign of weak mentality and passes was ll over the place without concentration and that's the deep problem we have.. we are too scared too attack

It's pretty pathetic seeing top class football players unable to make the sort of pass you'd be ashamed to miss in primary school lunchtime football, and under a similar amount of non existent pressure too.
Really the likes of Chiellini need to be told to hoof it at times, as they clearly can't be relied upon to make simple passes under some pressure at times.
Vidal was guilty of this too to be fair, Llorente always is.

Yes I fail to see how any team in the world should be able to stop us from testing their goalkeeper,
