Wich is why i'd want pereyra, cause then we got that counter threat, and they cant push as much, and we'd be solid as $#@! in the center
I'd prefer sturaro, better defending, can also counter and on somewhat better form than pereyra atm

honestly majority of us understand that we'd be better without pirlo in starting XI, really hate it when someone's is a liability but must start a CL final just for set pieces, experience and big name... lmao.

Lets be honest here, the stakes are against us on this one..but it doesnt mean we should go there and lose on purpose by turtling in our risky 352. I prefer losing playing with our best formation, and who knows, maybe we can get lucky.

^^ This is not Bayern 2013, Barcelona do have weaknesses, beyond their front 3. I still think that we're the underdogs, but this can be done. We should it against Real Madrid. Hopefully this time Chielini doesn't mess about and gives away a goal as he ocasionally has been doing of late

'CL final easy to prepare’
By Football Italia staff


Juventus Coach Massimiliano Allegri believes the Champions League final is not difficult to prepare for, and discusses the season.

The Bianconeri will face Barcelona in Berlin for their first Champions League final in 12 years, and the tactician insists the game is easy to prepare for, as it provides its own motivation.

“I’m thinking about it gradually, 10 minutes per day,” Allegri revealed in an interview with Mediaset.

“It’s not a difficult game to prepare, it’s an easy one, it’s a final.

“Barcelona are a different team from the others. Since [Andres] Iniesta has come back, the team has been more in control of the game, with three great players [Lionel Messi, Neymar and Luis Suarez] who respect the old Barcelona and attack in behind.

The former Milan Coach also had words of praise for some of the individuals in his squad which have helped the Old Lady to the brink of the treble.

“[Alvaro] Morata will become a great player. There are no adjectives for [Gianluigi] Buffon, and [Carlos] Tevez I think is an extraordinary player, but I’ve been impressed by the character of the whole team, we shouldn’t only speak about these three.

“In the end, the squad has been exceptional and extraordinary, and we saw that against Napoli with the penalty given to [Simone] Pepe who has been through a lot, and really helped us out when he played this year.

“Saturday? It was an extraordinary day, where we were able to celebrate the Scudetto and the Coppa Italia with the fans and our families.

“It was a great day to remember a season where, although it’s not over, the team did extraordinary things.”

This is exactly it. The only scary part is this Barca is in their best form right now. But even so, they were outplayed in both matches by Madrid this year. The 3-1 they were crushed, and their 2-1 win, Real Madrid had so many chances to kill that match off it was ridiculous they lost. I actually see this as a very evenly balanced final, with the exception that Barca can be extremely lethal up front if we make mistakes. If we play mistake free football I see us having a very very good chance of taking advantage of their weaknesses in midfield and defence and winning this thing.
