- Thread starter JCK
- Start date
that's my opinion, we'll have the same fate as the last year. 2nd place, no coppa, and we'll get out of the groups and that's it.

If all our DM/CMs are fit the first one I would choose is Marchisio. Because he is the best al-rounder. If everyone is fit we can definitely play a diamond 4-4-2 with Diego upfront, Sissoko at the back, Camo at the right and Marchisio at the left.
Brazzo is someone who can play both on the left as well.
The other solution is as I mentioned a flexible 4-3-1-2 which goes to 4-1-3-2 during offensive pressure. Same players can play both the diamond and this.
The downside of 4-2-3-1 is that with our chronic injury problems it won't be a formation we can play strong with given any combination of players. While a diamond or the flexible 4-3-1-2 can survive well providing not more of 2 of the 4 Del Piero, Diego, Giovinco and Camoranesi are fit. If all are fit Giovinco, Diego and Del Piero will rotate on the assistant striker and the AM positions.
This why the team can adapt to the formation and play well with it whether it was the first 11 or not. Changing formations alot really affects the team negatively.
The advantage of playing the diamond that it is not too far away from the flat 4-4-2 which is a formation we are quite used to. It can also be easily switched to a flat 4-4-2 whenever is needed by subbing the AM with an LM like De Cegli or Brazzo.

The best of Momo, I have seen, whether at Liverpool or Juve, is when he roams between the defence and midfield, only moving forward in flurries, because his shooting, whilst powerful, if near useless, and his passing is the worst of any of our midfielders (though Poulsen isn't much better, and lacks the ability to repair the damage he does, as easily as Momo). He is not a creative destroyer, he is just a destroyer.
When we have players in midfield, like Melo, Marchisio, Camo, Tiago...who are all technically superior to momo, on the ball, it is better to have him where he naturally wants to be, between defence and midfield. as a defensive midfielder...his main job, is hassle, hack, block, chase.
The further up the pitch he roams, his massive defensive strengths, turn quickly to profligate offensive weaknesses.
Some people have different ideas of the job and even position of defensive midfielders. To me, its a midfielder, who major strength and duty is DEFEND, COVER, HASSLE, PLAY SIMPLE pASSES to our BALL PLAYING MIDFIELDERS...which is what Momo was born for.
Poulsen has done OK, this season, in patches, but remains a massive waste of money, and his form seems brighter than it truly is because of the abysmal form of those around him. I wish him luck, as I would love to see him prove as dominant as how he performs for the Danish team. At Juve, he has NEVER come close to the often, Midfield Leader who can pass player he is for his country.
Momo, to me, always plays a defensive midfielder. thats his game...He defends the midfield. And Defends the Defence.
