actually totally forgot about him being suspended, a smart move from Allegri, but there goes my wishful thinking.
I agree that Braza his better in that aspect (duel part)but he will start loosing speed and reaction time very soon imo and playing further back will give him that extra time to react and will be less taxing on his fitness. Bonucci long balls can even be more effective when played from a diagonal angle and further up, not to mention Braza being there to cover the typical ,once a game, Bonucci blunder (who I rate regardless, just for the record)
Just a thought, It's a minor tweak that I suspect can work and even improve us marginally offensive wise even if it might come on expanse of defensive coverage.
