Also, we're not even using press play this season. We use it in short bursts where we just crowd the opposing half and then collapse back into a defensive unit the second they thread a pass through. Last season our midfield was eating opponents alive, this season we just withdraw and wait until the other team loses the ball, then we start slowly building the play. It's quite boring actually, I miss last season's Juve..
Conte reverting into a classical Italian coach?

We are (yet again) getting a lesson on how to play against our 3 back line, forcing it to be 5 backline, and just keep possession in midfield since we are fewer there pressurring since thier wingforwards pin back our wingbacks completely, even worse its easier for them to keep possession because neither Marchisio or Vucinic play high enough as forwards to pressure their defenders who are holding majority of the possession. Just congested in central mid without actually getting anywhere there. Plus kinda embarrassing how embarrassing we are at not being able to cope with their high pressure line when are starting from the back.

No Pirlo? :O I wonder how would that work. Obviously bad without a proper trequartista.
You could use Pirlo. 3412 is really just a 352 but with a player to link the midfield and attackers. But yeah, you wouldn't want to play Pogba or Marchisio behind the strikers. Someone in a role like Kaka when he was at Milan would be ideal for the position.

If we really look happy with the draw , chances are that we loose the match. It's a different thing to play with minimum risk and a different thing to play as a small team. We seem clueless.

Hungrier, and the directness of the 433, which remained freshn enough in the players minds even when we made the shift to 352 last season itself. This season, we've just completely lacked the intensity, instead absorbing the pressure of the other teams and then countering it.

Juve are turning into the Union Cane of Serie A... Where the FUCK is the heart, desire, determination and aggression we showed through all last season and under Carrera?
Time Conte brandished the ol' hair-drier and went all Sir Alex Ferguson on our boys!!

we played a lacklustre match against them @ san siro, and today same scenario with differrent flavour. They are playing very compact, elsharaawy is playing more a like midfielder and then breaking with pace. the midfield is too crowded and they are pressing more than juve.
