Max,


Buffon
MDS - Rugani -Chiellni - Sandro
Pjanic - Marchisio
Bernie - Dybala - D.Costa
Higuain​



Bernie/MDS = Italian
Sandro/DC = Brazilian

**No communication issues on either flank and two wingers that are actual wingers. Gotta get them all playing time together & consistently.

If napoli can have a great attack with slighly above average to average players...why the hell can't this team with the firepower we have?

What happens if they land Cancelo? Bernie needs to be taught Portuguese?

Stability of the squad builds understanding. You can't buy things like that. They're super offensive too, while we just recently decided to switch. It'll take time and it's only pre-season, legs are still heavy.

no but they also play together internationally. for people saying that adding one new player suddenly the entire team needs to gel, you would think this theory would make sense :D

Who are those slightly above average players, and how do Bernardeschi and Costa compare to them?
IF napoli would play a 4231, they could field a midfield 3 of

Callejon---Hamsik/Mertens---Insigne

Slightly above average eh?

Callejon/Insigne vs Dybala/Higuain/Mandzukic/Cuadrado....Costa/Bernadeschi


I'd say we are stacked

- - - Updated - - -

Dybala, Higuain, Costa, Bernadeschi >>>> Mertens, Insigne, Callejon, Milik

I'd place Bernadeschi and Costa above Callejon... but below Dybala, Insigne, and Mertens... Higuain a country mile above Milik.
lol I'm taking a dump and texting on my phone but yeah, what you said

so at least one of the slightly above average players would start for us?

Of course we have the bigger depth up front and clearly the better striker, but the difference of the starting players isn't that big at all. To call Mertens, Insigne and Callejon slightly above average players is rich coming from us. We have more quantity than quality on the wings.

Well... I don't think Insigne, Mertens, Bernadeschi, or Costa are slightly above average players. Costa and Insigne are good players, Mertens is a very good player, and Bernadeschi is a good player with potential to be very good. ;)

Callejon is the worst of the bunch imo. Never really rated him. But even he is above average.

Allegri was incredibly stupid to trust on De Sciglio, hopefully he will realize that before the end of transfer window, getting a decent is our highest priority!
