You really don't understand subtlety and nuance at all. Not in the slightest. I'm embarrassed for you.
Things are not black and white, although I can't say I'm surprised at this from you.
Offcourse, imagine you couldnt put a label, world would stop turning, wouldnt it.
You dont start seeking for answers, but then quit halfway and try something completely else, when you have open leads.
Not really made for engineering solutions, arent you

So I guess Sturaro is far away form the starting 11 in this formation?
To be honest, don't care as long as we are winning and playing like we have been the last few rounds.
I cant see how he would fit in a 4231 before the other cm's

The first one that comes to mind is Asamoah over Pjanic in te first homegame against Sevilla. Then there is picking Sturaro over Lemina. Playing either Khedira or Sturaro in the role that Pogba had the year before. Benching Cuadrado in a lot of games in the start of the season even though he was performing. But the main issue was trying to force players into a formation that no longer was right for the squad.
1) We had issues with solidity so he wanted to put an extra layer and see if that worked in recovery. We created alot of chances but didnt score and got drew at the end
2) Lemina wasent solving the midfield issue that it was weak and Pjanic didnt work. So he tried the more physical option which makes sense, but Sturaro is just not good enough
3) Cuadrado was not as good as you claim, in fact everyone was desperate for the 4312 and didnt like the poor offensive output of cuadrado (and then he scored
that goal)
4) We made 1 change in the 3-5-2 and suddenly "the formation isnt right for the squat". What a shit coach you'd be. You first try to mend it. If you cant mend it, you replace it.
