Cuadrado and Mandzukic again ? Seriously I'm tired of both of them. How about giving some opportunities to our new signings ?

I'll be happy to have a new coach next year.
Our record this season with Cuads and Mandžukič starting is 6-0-1. Our record with at least one of them benched is 1-1-2. We might not set the world on fire with the 4231 of last season, but to me it seems our only way of getting results so far. Costa has gotten plenty of opportunities, but the guy doesn't bring results, let him stretch his legs against weaker opposition.

    Yes but...

    Juventus test 4-3-3 :numnum:
    By Football Italia staff

    Juventus reportedly tested a 4-3-3 in training this morning, but could still stick with 4-2-3-1 against Sporting CP.

    The Bianconeri face the Portuguese side in the Champions League tonight, the first of a double-header against Jorge Jesus’ side.

    According to Tuttomercatoweb, Coach Massimiliano Allegri tested a 4-3-3 shape in the final training session this morning.

    That saw Miralem Pjanic playing deep, with Blaise Matuidi to his left and Sami Khedira to his right in the centre of the park.

    Paulo Dybala would play on the right flank, allowing him to cut in on his left foot, with Mario Mandzukic on the left and Gonzalo Higuain through the middle.

    However, it’s not certain that this will be the approach taken tonight, as Allegri may opt to go 4-2-3-1.

    Essentially the choice comes down to Juan Cuadrado or Khedura, with the former indicating a 4-2-3-1.

    Probable Juventus line-up: Buffon; Sturaro, Benatia, Chiellini, Alex Sandro; Pjanic, Matuidi; Cuadrado, Dybala, Mandzukic; Higuaín

    OR

    Buffon; Sturaro, Benatia, Chiellini, Alex Sandro; Khedira, Pjanic, Matuidi; Dybala, Higuain, Mandzukic

    Stuaro, Benaitia and Khedira are week. Cuad is not good consistent enough. Huguain is out of form. Mandzu will be burnt out before xmas. Our defense is weak. We are not in great shape atm.

    I still believe everything will fall into place towards the end of the season to give a good run at the CL knockout stage.

    Cuadrado is currently our best winger, or would you rather have "headless chicken" looking confused and clueless in a must win game?

    Since when did Rugani become our defensive saviour ?

    He's not playing because he's not good enough.
    And old man Barza and Calamity Couscous are?
