neither is this your "normal team"
BUFFON
BONUCCI - CANNAVARO - CHIELLINI
MAGGIO - DE ROSSI - PIRLO - MARCHISIO - CRISCITO
DON'T CARE - DON'T CARE
So this formation looks really sweet but here is my attempt to break it down.
2 Forwards - Would ideally receive support from pirlo and marchisio eventually this shift into a 3-4-3 IMO with marchisio playing a mid/support pillar for pirlo
Pirlo- As stated before he isn't the same pirlo. Physically he's not there but mentally ? Top class imo . So as long as de rossi can forget about attacking and cover pirlo's ass then we will have a good WC
De Rossi- As I just stated he needs to be told to cover's pirlo's ass. I want this guy to become gay for a world cup and act like Pirlo is his girlfried who he would die for. kinda like gattuso. Pirlo kinda looks good with his long hair lol j/k
Marchisio- I'm confused as far as he's role goes. BUT here is what I think it will end up like. He will be someone for pirlo to play off of , 1-2's etc. I think he's our best pushing forward. As long as he exploit his atheltic abilities (being young) and skill going forward we could juice a couple goals from this lad and assist
Maggio- Isn't he a rb/rm ? either way he is going to play your classic mid. Track back and attack. I would he plays wide 24/7. He NEEDS to sit on the touch line. mentally I would like him to be defensive minded.
Criscito- Same as maggio
BOLD= Play goes through these players all creativity, possession etc. of course others will assist but mainly these players. And to finish Cannavaro is the beginning of all this. if chiellini and bonucci can cover for him speed wise then he's set.
Buffon
Bonucci--Cannavaro--Chiellini
Maggio--De Rossi--Pirlo--Criscito
-----------Marchisio--------
Forward--Forward
See the rhombus they create? Soccer is all about mini triangles thats how barca play and ideally this is how it would play out on the field of course marchisio would some times play behind pirlo along with De rossi .
Here is my 2Cents am not a coach nor do I know much about tactics but I tried plz don't eat me alive
At the end of the day :flag1:
