Wow, just wow!Form and mentality were indeed part of the problem, but that is over simplification at its finest. We look clueless when plan A doesn't work, and even though we performed admirably against Madrid we only managed 1 point. They were the "inferior" team, one could argue, but they still managed 4 points against us. That is the hallmark of champions.
In Serie A, we can play like shit and manage to get results. In Europe we huff and puff and blow hot air, nothing!
Were form and mentality part of the problem? Yes!
Were they the only problem? No!
Do we need a plan B? Most definitely!
Do we need to be more menacing and attack at pace? Yes. In Serie A, we can get away with being slow and lethargic. In Europe, we need a more direct approach, and to pick up the pace. Our possession game isn't really menacing to anyone.

We should sell that useless midget first, but other than that I agree.
I'd be happy to sacrifice Gio, Quag, and even Marchisio for one Verratti.
as for a complete formation change, we got a plan b. against real madrid
But need all Cm's fit for that. So we kinda need an extra one. Like Naingollan.

then you would only need an extra 30 mil on fee's and 4 mil on wages
I blame our poor finishing and insistence on long balls ( especially against Gala) not the formation.
How is the formation at fault against Copengahen in the first game? Go and look at the highlights of that game and see how many chances we created. We were foiled by a superhuman goalkeeper performance and terrible finishing.
Oh and the first three games of our CL campaign were played were at a time when our team was in poor form and were making horrible INDIVIDUAL (not team) mistakes.

no teams play with wingbacks because it's an almost extinct, awkward position that serves no tactical purpose and disrupts flow of teams in wide areas.
zach our wingbacks arent better that anyone else. to ilustrate, litch is a worse wingback than he is a fullack. that's how akward that position is.
fact: playing with a fullback and a winger will always beat playing with a wingback. simple separation of duties
also having a regista doesnt mean you can't play 4-3-3 or any other formation. zachy pls. same with box to box mids. I am not sure why you think that's an excuse not to play any other formation than 3-5-2.

Hehehe you are really delusional or you must just be joking . Pogba for 60 , what next french winning the world cup. At this point Pogba is not worth at most 20million. Have you seen Freddy Guarin of inter , i'm a juve fan but that guy is the real deal and he isn't even worth 20million. Pogba is okay he is still growing , but this link up play is average, he can't turn a game around, yet like ramires, yaya toure or even Pirlo. He has been a force in the Seria , but lets admit it . There is something wrong with this league, it's so slow and conservative, its easy to look good. But in the Champions league , he didn't turn any game around. Players don't join teams because of names alone but also the tactical formation. Any offensive player would rather play for Martinez in Everton than Conte in Juve.

If Zach has ever been on an actual football stadium , he would recognize that playing as a wingback is virtually impossible or extremely difficult. Why do you think Ronaldo Scores so much against Barca or did you realize how much Real could have won the first match in barcelona this year. Because when dani alves and the left back push forward ronaldo stay on the wings , benzema in the middle. and another player of the winger on a counter , it become 3 on 3 just like that , leaving mascherano , puyol and pique exposed to speed with no help. when is the wingback going to ever get back in time to help the central midlfielders. The funny thing is barcelona plays with four but their backs, play almost identical to wingbacks, and they have to play high pressure because they know how exposed they will get. 3-5-2 will get you know where bro. There is no underdog that wins with three defenders. It is possible if you had player 3 center Backs like Caceres. but not with bonucci ,chellini and barzagli .
