He wanted to have three strikers. When he put Sissoko on for Krasic I knew that Toni for a CM will follow next. He didn't put both of them at once in order not to give a chance to Cagliari's coach to react accordingly with his third sub. It's happening quite a lot, a standard tactic. When he saw that Nene is the third sub, he immediately put Toni in.

When Donadoni saw that we play with 4 CMs and we're not that dangerous he didn't go for defending the draw but he put an attacker in. He wasn't gonna do that if Del Neri put Toni in together with Sissoko.
A very good point here!

Ancelotti was doing the same many times in Milan. The other coaches finally saw through it and didn't fall for that trick anymore :D

Mourinho FTW though. He doesn't use such tricks. He'll put 3 new players at once if the result isn't good (he actually did that in Real's last match) :)

Thing is that this game will suddenly make them forget all about our real problems and in the end they'll end up seeing 5th place as a success.

Del Neri: 'It's easier with strikers...'

Gigi Del Neri is hardly surprised that Juventus got back to winning ways. “It’s easier when you actually have strikers...”
Although Jorge Martinez started in attack, it was January signings Alessandro Matri and Luca Toni who netted in the 3-1 win at Cagliari.

“We always said that Juve paid the price for not having the right players in the right place, especially in the box,” said the Coach.

“Both Martinez and Milos Krasic did well interpreting their roles, but we changed to a 4-3-1-2 giving Alessandro Del Piero and Matri more freedom.

“Do not forget that at Palermo we only had Martinez as a reserve in attack and he’s not really a forward. We should have Vincenzo Iaquinta back soon too, so it’s easier when you actually have strikers...

“It’s not simple to win at Cagliari, so this result gives us great confidence for the future, even if we have to keep our feet on the ground. We know we’re on the right track.”

It's easier with strikers...

Enough said.

He's probably saying we had no one capable of doing a striker's job. It's nuts how good we make Matri and Toni look, someone like Dzeko or Ibra would be scoring insane amounts of goals with our team.

It also sorta confirms that fullbacks vs strikers debate. We do need fullbacks but strikers are the ones who win you games.

However, now that we have some stable strikers, come the summer time we have to think about fullbacks first. We can't just sign a world-class bomber and forget about our FBs. Fullbacks first (Beck, VdW, Coentrao, whoever it might be!) and then we should look for another striker.

Yeah, I agree. With a healthy Quagliarella we're pretty comfortable in attack for now. A fullback is definitely needed more at the moment. Please let it be van der Weil!!!!
