So Cuadrado as an AM?
And I still think Dybala needs to play primarily on the right

As a 4-3-3 that probably wouldn't work, but with as a 4-3-2-1 with Dybala playing more centrally from the left, and Cuadrado giving some width and overloading the right it might work quite well.
I see us playing a 4-3-1-2 though, as I really don't see the point of the Hernanes purchase otherwise. I highly doubt we brought him to be a CM, as we also bought Lemina for that. And if we're playing a 3 man midfield in a 4-3-3 that leaves us with Pogba, Marchisio, Lemina, Sturaro, Pereyra, Khedira, Asamoah, Padoin, Hernanes to fit into the rotation. That's 9 players for CM. That would be crazy. If we're playing a 4 man midfield with a CAM, it makes much more sense. Hernanes, Pereyra and Cuadrado can all play CAM, and then we have 6 players left over for the three other midfield spots. Cuadrado's versatility is really quite fantastic as he played RWF, RWB, RCM, SS, and AM for Fiorentina at times. He's actually quite a decent SS and AM, even if his best position is RWF.

Replace Hernanes with Asamoah if he returns from his injury and to top form again. Big if, but I think he might be a game-changer for us in Midfield if it happens.
What about Cuadrado/Pereyra as the RCM at times? With The other one in that Hernanes spot allowing some freedom for those two to overload that right side as Pereyra always has a tendency to drift right when playing CAM as does Cuadrado. It would probably turn into a sort of right side heavy 4-4-2 variation when attacking.
IF we can keep possession! Otherwise they will end up hitting us on the break 
We just let got James Troisi. I really hope in the future once the Continassa project is done, we can do much much more better with our abundance of youth players. Right now it seems like we are the one producing players for lower end clubs to survive with none of them coming close to Juventus first team.

actually when fit, asamoah will be first choice imo.
asamoah is really fast too. right there with morata as our fastest player. not to mention he is comfrtable with running with the ball
what does this mean?
it means because asamoah is also good at positiong and intercepting/tackling, when winning the ball he, morata, dybala, pogba and pereyra are able to cover large areas of pitch because of speed. counter attack is going to be top notch.
blitz style counter attack.

pogba is can use both feet eqully well. i think he can do quite well on right.
asamaoh is bad at using his weaker foot, so it makes sense for him to stick to left side.
that said of course the midfield isnt set in stone. the players can move around the pitch, like last season, but they tactically should stay where coach thinks is best

Pogba likes to cut in from the left hand side and either pass or shoot.Don't forget his linkups with Evra too.
He's been doing well in that wide left role for a while now.
If he plays on the right, it's more likely he'll play more central than drift outwide on the right flank.
Could be tried as an experiment.But I am not completely sure tho.
