Fantastic game

Showed a lot of fight too

Would love to see him play more often but i dont know how we'll fit all our key players lol


Guessing Allegri will heavily rotate this season with varied formations.

He came off the bench explosively. His reaction against Hetemaj was useless but it showed he ran out on the pitch with a full on rage-grinta-mode, which I loved. MOTM definitely, a total game-changer. Should play as our starting RW or a mezzala a la Isco from now on.

he played a pretty confusing game. he tried too hard sometimes, he got away with a couple of fouls, but i loved his grinta. probably our most driven player today, which is not a shame on mandzukic or chiellini, but rather a compliment to berna. him or sandy for mom.

Put in a lot of work/running today. If he can do this for 90 minutes, i'd like to see him start as RCM @MikeM :p

Seems to be the direction Max is going anyway though.

The position Cuadrado played today was not his normal style in a 4-4-2. He was inside a lot and Cancelo was providing width. Usually Cuadrado is hugging the touch line.

I think Allegri might just keep the same 4-4-2 but when he uses Berna instead of Cuadrado, he will allow him to come inside (as if you can stop him, he seems to always end up there).

This is the best you can do with Dybala in the team. Because Max will never use Dybala as a #9 or RW in a 4-3-3. You have to play with 2 strikers it seems. So with 2 strikers, this is the closest Allegri can get to making Bernardeschi a RCM.

Never have I seen Cuadrado showing for the ball in this area as much as today:

Ronaldo
---Dybala
Alex Sandro-Costa-----Cuadrado-Cancelo
Pjanic-Khedira
Chiellini-Bonucci​
