OR Dybala as CF and Higuain benched
lol
this is such a conundrum for Max

Our defense has gotten gradually sturdy and one of the reasons may be due to switching to a 3 man midfield
But when the 4-2-3-1 worked so well for us last year, why not this year ? We essentially have the same team except we have Benatia at the back and a more athletic mid in Matuidi. We do like to focus on the formation a lot but in reality is it really the game changer ? Now that we are stable and not leaking goals, we can transition to 4-2-3-1 more easily.
Dybala and Higuaín are both essential players and we can't afford to bench them. Our mercato was based on upgrading the attack and now that we have more options, Allegri should use it more efficiently.

It might be your own personal oppinion so I won't criticize even tho I strongly disagree with most of it.
If you did watch the game tonight, do not forget that if it was not for both lack of finishing and poor decision-making in the final third than this game could have easily been a 3:0 long before Roma even had their first clear chance at goal...

As long as we never see the 352 again lol
The only time the 4231 is working well is when Dybala and Higuain are actually on form. One of them goes out then we either hope Dybala scores (out of form Higs) or Cuadrado creates (out of form Dybala) because we know Mario offers hardly anything going forward.

our midfield doesent work good enough two ways for qa 4312 to work without wingers. Mandzukic and Cuadrado do a hell of a job for this 3 man midfield to work. id sell Higuain and buy a great mid, but we wont do that sadly

we havent had one attack run through Berna for his time on the pitch. nearly every attack goes to Mandzukic.

Max Allegri explained his tactical choices as Juventus beat Roma 1-0 and reassured Paulo Dybala. “Winning 1-0 is always a nice feeling.”
Medhi Benatia scored the only goal of the game, but late on Alessandro Florenzi’s chip hit the bar and Wojciech Szczesny performed a desperate save on Patrik Schick.
“It was a good game, but we didn’t finish it off and then struggled at the end,” the Coach told Mediaset Premium.
“We could’ve had more goals, but winning 1-0 is always a nice feeling. In truth, we gifted the last chance to Roma and others too when we should’ve been comfortable.”
For the third Serie A game in a row, Allegri dropped Paulo Dybala and used Blaise Matuidi in a 4-3-3 formation.
“Matuidi and the midfielders like Miralem Pjanic are important to push forward into spaces. Paulo is absolutely not a problem for Juventus. The problem would be not having him. At this moment, that’s just how things are, but it’s a long season, there are many games and we will need his goals.
“There are moments when you need some players and moments when you need others. Today we needed solidity. If Dybala had come off the bench, he would’ve done well tonight.
“Dybala understands the moment, he respects the decisions and the whole squad wins the game. On Wednesday he put in a great performance in the Coppa Italia against Genoa and I explained when he arrived that he can’t really be a centre-forward.”
This weekend’s results mean Napoli and Juventus open up a consistent gap at the top of the table, as both Inter and Roma lost in third and fourth place.
“Roma and Napoli are candidates for the Scudetto. Inter are still up there and so are Lazio. It’s an important result tonight, because if Roma win their game in hand against Sampdoria next month, they’d have been level with us.
“There is no anxiety, because Juve live for games like this.”

Dybala is the most gifted talent on our team. Ofcourse he eventually needs to be reinstated. If we had Messi like Argentina , it would've been a different matter but he essentially plays the same role as Messi , it obviously would be tough to fit him in.
Allegri needs to find a way to put him back on.

The delusion is strong with this one.
Looking at the stats, Mandzukic' key passes and chance creation per 90 minutes is mediocre. If you watch them play, you notice how much better Berna and Costa are on the ball than Mandzukic. They can take people on, play through balls. Mandzukic isn't technically gifted enough to do that.

thats a BS stat. watch us play and see that Mandzukic, Cuadrado and Pjanic are our pass to guys. we play through these 3 players most of our attacks. Bernas chance creation stats with tons of space at the end of games (aka garbage time) are not relevant in this

same reason as with us. Dybala is a pure striker with a bad 1st touch and technical abilities. hes not a winger nor is he a AM, he needs to be close to the goal and receive passes around the box, which wont happen with Icardi and Messi there.
