Anyone wants to explain to me where the fuck this guy thinks he will play? He's not a striker, we already have too many midfielders and he's definitely not playing CAM with Dybala, Kulusevski and Ramsey being options there.
I think Pirlo prefers a more natural fullback at LWB. Someone who can slot in at LB to make it a back four with Danilo moving to RB. The role Cuads played is better suited for Berna. He played in a similar role on the right at Fiorentina under Paulo Sousa.
You could be right. You see Kulu, McKenn on the pitch with speed and pace performing well though very small sample. Berna has that same speed and pace just his HEAD isn't working with his body. Only 26 and possibly Pirlo can find a spot to bring out his best.
Maybe LWB like Albo suggests could be his spot? Has the energy to go end-to-end and no doubt has shown offensive skills. Needs to learn to defend when needed. Has a strong left foot, just needs to get his shots on goal. Could be only a matter of better decision making that Pirlo can solve.
He played as a winger/wingback successfully before for Fio and Juve (4231 of Allegri, first season).
If you invert the formation we used in the last game, I can see Berna doing on the left what Cuads does on the right. Put AS as LCB behind him, and RWB would be more defensive, like a classic fullback. From deeper positions you require different skills, his poor endproduct shouldn't be such an issue. Cuadrado doesn't produce great numbers either but those kind of players have it in them to be useful in both phases of the game.
I don't understand why some of you are so willing, so delusional I guess, to give this turd nugget another chance, and even believe in his resurrection
He was never that good to begin with, so even if he does experience a revival, it's not as if he's a world class player.

No, we don't. However, hoping for Turdeski to come good, when his "good" was never that good to begin with, is quite baffling. We should be trying to get rid of him instead of reintegrating him into the squad.
I'd rather keep Costa tbh - at least we know he's a real footballer.
