you have no idea? oh man, if you dont know anything about our own players, what would you know about others

I wouldnt be so confident about that 4back switch, Marotta has been failing to get a proper LB since the day he took over...

we could loan them everywhere.

The world is heading towards a 3-man backline and we are getting rid of it.

I wonder what all the 3-5-2 haters will be saying now. I really can see more European club teams using this formation more and more now, given its relative success so far in the WC.

Someone dress Conte up as a hipster.

Our 352 would need better wingers offensively. Otherwise it can't really be improved that much.

StREEt CONTE

 

[Cronios]

the back three was Conte's choice, but not Conte's fault!
It is not his fault that MArotta has failed to get a proper LB, from the very first day Conte took over, up untill now!
Conte simply adapted our formation to our material in optimal way and considering our lack of LBs,the lack of wingers, the weak defenders and the surplus of CMs, the 3-5-2 is the optimal formation for our material.
The Italian NT also happen to suffer from the same things (lack of decent LBs, quality CBs, LMs and has a surplus of CMs) so its only logical to follow Juve's path (as it always did anyways)

People giving Conte credit for 3-5-2 when it was Mazzarri who invented it.

The whole world lacks LBs. Worldwide it's the position with the smallest pool of great/top class players. Even LMs who would play nearer the middle of the pitch are rare these days because the 4231 has been so popular.

Additionally I would disagree about the Azzuri's lack of top CBs. They have the same three world class CBs that we have - Chiellini, Bonucci and Barzagli.

The best thing about this whole argument is that we have never tried to buy a left back.

not really, we are trying each and every year, actually, we have been trying since the Molinaro days, From Zeglier to Peluso MArotta has been constantly keep failing to get one.
That was one of the first players Conte has asked when he arrived.
But unlike the right side, since there arent many LB option, one transfer manager should locate one player,plan his transfer, negotiate for him and get him!
Thats precisely what MArotta cant do, he can only accomplish opportunity random targets and freebies...
