The problem with nastasic is if we are playing with a high defensive line his lack of pace will not suit us what so ever
Allegri biggest quality is his ability to set up a deep defensive line.
I cant recall any italian coach who's better at doing that at the moment
And juventus is suited to do that, since our starting centrebacks are becomming slower
Oh, and to all the Bonucci haters. Bonucci wouldnt play in a deep defensive line, since both central defenders require to be good at anticipating and forward tackling and positionning in the small space, whilst bonucci's biggest talent is covering for trough balls when operating a high defensive line.
Nastasic, Rannochia, both have quite the potential when fielded in a deep line.

He needs to regain fitness form and then prove he is better.
Since Barzagli is out, that doesnt seemb to hard, considering he's so much better in the centrebackrole of a deep defence then any substitude we have.
We should tell him he's seen as the future replacement as Barzagli, and he can learn from him and chiellini.
