Sadly when u have a player like CR, who not only wins you trophiees but is you main marketing man, then you have no choice but to bend over and build aroiund him. Pretty much like messi too.

The moratas and the bales get the short end of the stick

Cuadrado is better when he does not have the ball. We have to adapt the team away from him a little bit. And we have to encourage him to move away from his comfort zone which is to drift into space and stand still until he gets the ball, at which point he initiates a dribble against 4 players.

That moment when he ran the line like a train and Khedira put the ball over the top is the exact way to use Cuadrado. Let him move towards the net without the ball and put the ball there for him at the end.

It's a more effective tactic to have Pogba, Marchisio, Dybala or Morata with the ball and use Cuadrado more as a classical winger IMO. Trying to dribble through Italian defences will never work.

If he even just makes off ball runs like Lichtsteiner he will be more effective. Since obviously he can cross, shoot and dribble better at the conclusion.

I think it depends on where the space is.

If a defence has squeezed up then it is harder to get the ball to his feet and so he should attack the space left behind the defence, as you say.

If the defence is deeper, you want to work the ball to Cuadrado in a situation where he is one-on-one with a defender so that he has a good chance of beating him and getting a cross in from a dangerous position. With the defence deep, that's most likely to happen with Cuadrado in an orthodox wide position - or possibly a little deeper so he can build up some space before the defender gets to him.

Either way, there's always a way to use him to hurt teams.

And if a team is sufficiently concerned about him to take him out of the game, that probably means they are leaving space somewhere else that Juve should be able to exploit.

Bad luck for colombia not for us

What crippled Bale is that he's limited technically, nothing to do with what side he's occupying.

Bale went to Madrid having to prove that he was better than CR7. Unfortunately he is not.

not a juventus decision

Well he's not going to be playing for Colombia, at least.

Atletico Madrid want to sign Juan Cuadrado from Chelsea once Juventus loan spell ends!

We must buy this beast!

I can see a strong Juve even after Pogba if we keep Cuadrado and reinforce..

 

[DUKAC]

This game is the right time for him to show his true potential.
