I think this deal is happening. Pereyra is happening too. One attacking mid replacing another.
The 4231 formation posted above looks sexy but would need a lot of tactical coaching especially for Pjaca who in that position would require to do a lot more defensive work than he would be use to in a 433 situation. Also, Khedira may not be the best player in the deep position. Having said that, Pjanic and Marchisio (when he comes back) could really make that formation a real possibility. Don't expect Allegri to do that any time soon though. Also, I really think in a back 4, Evra is certainly going to be Allegri's first choice. In the 352, Sandro or even perhaps Asamoah may pip Evra this year.

That's fair but he fits regardless. Think about Khedira for both Germany and Real Madrid. He played with Kroos and or Xabi Alonso as the 2 in the 4-2-3-1 consistently. He's played in a deep role quite prominently throughout his whole career. He just is given a bit more freedom to join the attack. I'm sure especially if he was paired with Marchisio, a similar thing would happen.
And when I say consistently, I'm certain because the majority of German coaches (Low, definitely) are incapable of playing anything else but a 4-2-3-1, as is Jose Mourinho.
