I rate MVP+Pogba a more creative solution then us trying to play wide. Like Nordsjaelland we couldn't attack over the flanks whereas this would hurt against Shakhtar for instance..

Pirlo is a regista, why would you play him as COM? If anything I suggest Pogba for COM but changing formation just now isn't exactly a smart move. We took on Bologna with ease and thought we could grap an easy victory but we were wrong. Inter is a great team right now and we better field the winning formula with the MVP midfield IMO. Pogba deserve to play - none see him as a teenager anymore so i doubt the reason is his age, it's solely because we have a world class midfield and Pogba playing on top of his game or not, isn't world class just yet. Expect the "old" lineup with MVP, Vucinic, Giovinco, Licht and Asamoah in the Derby d Italia.


Yep i would bench pogba too...
Lets go with our usual starting 11...if things get rough for one of them... bring in Pogba.

Form wise, Pogba deserves to start... but lets go this time with the protocol and field our known best 11 just in case something goes wrong, that way no one will be blaed for fielding or not fielding him.

The competition for places in Juventus's first-choice midfield is indeed fierce, with Pogba theoretically needing to displace one of Vidal, Pirlo or Claudio Marchisio in order to start. It was a conundrum neatly summed up by Olivero in Gazzetta: "Will Ferguson curse over not having kept him at Manchester? Very probably yes. Will Didier Deschamps, the France manager, call him up for the first time in a few days? Very probably yes.

"And will Conte leave him out for the big match on Saturday against Inter? Very probably yes, unless ankle problems keep out Marchisio. The hierarchy is clear, Vidal and Marchisio have never got it wrong in the most important games. They deserve faith."

Indeed.

Pogba deserve to start tomorrow! Lets play 4-4-2 with diamond midfield.

----------Pirlo-----
Marchisio-------Vidal
-------- Pogba-----
Yeah they probably won't do it this week but getting all 4 out there would be great.
We still have 3 good backups (for injuries) anyway - Asa, Marrone, Giac.

Hierarchy should be the most on form player should start.


See they'd rather play an injured marchisio.

What was his say in the Verratti deal? As far as I recall Pescara took the money from PSG. Nothing wrong with that.
According to different sources, before PSG came in Marotta already had a deal with Pescara to leave Verratti at Pescara on loan for one season with full rights going to Juve in exchange for cash + half of the rights to Ouasim Bouy. Raiola said Bouy didn't come to Juve to be sent out on co-ownership. Bouy later went on co-ownership to Pro Vercelli(or was that Appelt? point is, Bouy went to a Serie B side) a few weeks later. :seven:

Raiola was just making sure that the Pogba transfer happened as we had not closed a deal for Pogba yet, and getting Verratti would have probably made it easier for us to pass on Pogba as we already had Marrone and Bouy.

I know a winning team should never be changed but i was thinking yesterday....last season Conte started using 4-2-4; after he noticed that he could make a great partnership between MVP he switched to 4-3-3....after that Napoli game where he mirrored them with the 3-5-2 he noticed that Bonucci works great in a 3-man defence and he continued using 3-5-2. Now, Pogba has shown great signs, that he is a very capable player so why wouldn't Conte try playing them all? At least he should give it a thought because of course, playing 4 CM's together is tactically demanding. A sort of 3-6-1 where Marchisio would be helping arround/in the box Vidal keeping everything safe, and Pogba would be constantly moving arround the six yard box waiting for a stray ball to use his wonderful long shots....

1. He wasn't free. Juve paid 1 mill in the end.
2. Bebe is a striker, not a mid.
1. Close enough :rolleyes:

2. So what if they don't play the same position? He literally found a man who had recently lived in a box on the street in Portugal and gave him a chance before Paul Pogba. He even played a crap defender Phil Jones in midfield before Pogba. Hilarious.

not just that but SAF called scholes out of retirement over Pogba, no disrespect to scholes who is perhaps england's most technically gifted player for well over a decade but when your development is delayed for someone who has retired once already you can hardly blame Paul for not wanting to renew.
