It's like saying "two goal lead is always the most dangerous lead"

Juve drop Morata and Cuadrado?
By Football Italia staff

Juventus are expected to field a 3-5-2 system against Manchester City tonight, but Alvaro Morata and Juan Cuadrado could be dropped.

The Champions League showdown kicks off at 19.45 GMT and the temperature in Turin this evening is predicted to be close to freezing.

According to Mediaset Premium, Max Allegri has opted for the 3-5-2 tactic in this crucial game for qualification.

There are still doubts, but the latest reports suggest Paulo Dybala and Mario Mandzukic will be the front two, therefore shelving Morata.

It would be a remarkable decision, as Morata is Juve’s top scorer in the Champions League and netted in the 2-1 victory in Manchester.

As for the other doubt, Stephan Lichtsteiner seems to be the favourite ahead of Cuadrado on the right, while Alex Sandro replaces not 100 per cent fit Patrice Evra on the left.

Considering injuries and suspensions ruling out Sami Khedira, Hernanes, Roberto Pereyra, Martin Caceres and Kwadwo Asamoah, the other starters are pretty much guaranteed.

Juventus (probable): Buffon; Barzagli, Bonucci, Chiellini; Lichtsteiner, Sturaro, Marchisio, Pogba, Alex Sandro; Mandzukic, Dybala

We need Pereyra back so Allegri can screw off with the garbage 3-5-2/4-3-3 that always seems to transform into full on 3-5-2 as the game progresses.

We really have missed Bobby P. I thought he'd take a nice step up for us this year, guy just can't stay healthy though

Another week or two, I guess... remember early/mid December as the original timeline

DAiDEViL · Nov 25, 2015

can't stay healthy? he is no caceres.

This season, I mean. Hasn't he been injured twice already? I thought he also missed a couple of weeks with a strain, or something, but could be wrong? Allegri was also testing different setups when he was healthy. Problem is, Bobby P should be a key part of our setup, he needs minutes.

I don't think he's an injury prone player, but if he's going to take that step up this season that I thought he would, he's gotta be on the pitch.

No, he's not injury prone like Caceres. He's also much more important to our team right now, we need him back.
