Also we will need to revamp in 2 years if we dont. We need more CBs because Barza is aging but he can cover CB and RB like a young kid? I think to improve our team we need to buy a Pure RB UNLESS we get a proper AM and keep Quads
Of course we're trying to keep Cuadrado and the whole use of him is playing 3-5-2. Ditching it now is insane. We might play some other formations as well but the 3-5-2 is a safe route, especially in Italy.

Covering 2 positions or covering 11 positions doesn't change a thing. It's 90 minutes per match...

Exactly, we need a CB fitst with Chiellini being injured all of the time, Barzagli ageing and Caceres leaving...
Yeah, considering we have 2 formations to use we need 5 CBs as all of them would play a lot next season. If the new CB can also cover at RB like Caceres used to it would be perfect

That's my hope as well. Padoin becomes quite a surplus to requirements then...

All im saing is that if Licht goes out then it would be Barza there a lot of games with not much rotation and also him not being cover for the middle. Last year we played a 3-5-2 that wasnt much different than the 4-3-1-2 at times. Instead of peryra you just had Cuads doing the same thing but a bit wider which made Barza really play very similar to what he does at RCB

I disagree. Licht isnt maintaining his fitness like he was and if he goes down it really limits Allegri in what formation we use. Padoin isnt CL quality and playing Lirola is suicide most likely in the CL. If we keep Cuads we can hold off but will atill be a bit risky IMO. Also if Allgegri is sold on the 3-5-2 then its not as much of an issue
We use 352 as the main formation anyway so Cuadrado would play more than Licht. With Licht out we still have Padoin, Barzagli (who played there vs City and Sevilla) and possibly the new CB too if we want to switch to a 4 man defense. Lirola wont be someone who we would count on seriously in his 1st season anyway, but hes the most talented player of our primavera and should be given a chance in the 1st team to see how good he really is

Anyway i'm certain now with Marchisio's injury,we wont specifically look around for a TQ but a MF who can play both CM and TQ and we need to find the right player for that.Pjanic is perfect but pretty unlikely.
