I guess he knows it won't be changing any time soon
That was the first time I've seen them this season that they actually looked like anything resembling a cohesive unit.
Admittedly, Palermo were rubbish and didn't do anything to trouble Roma, so hard to draw many real firm conclusions from it.
I like to watch them because they play with more pace and width than a lot of Serie A teams, since they do usually play with Gomez and Barrientos nice and wide and high up the pitch.
Them playing with that width makes for interesting confrontations when they come up against the teams playing with back threes, to see what adjustments both teams makes and who is able to impose their style better.
Was a shame that they chickened out and played 3-5-2 against Juve, though they still troubled Juve on occasion, because they caused Inter a lot of problems at San Siro and ended up forcing Inter to chance to a back four to contain them.
Lazzarri is used in more of a box-to-box role when he plays. Pinzi is probably the closest Udinese have to someone capable of dictating the tempo in midfield.
It's just refreshing to see any league that still values technique and intelligence ahead of athleticism, as entertaining as it is to watch Lee Cattermole...
