marchisio played as LM under del neri a lot also

It has to be said that he wasn't exactly great there, though.

why not? if it worked against possibly our hardest opponents of the season and conte tried it without any earlier experience besides training I don't think it's unreasonable.

But aganist madrid he played as a makeshift rw and would sometimes pop out on the left and he would drop very deep

I'd rather have Nainggolan than any of the current LB, RW who are on the market.

We really do need a fourth midfielder and he possesses the skillset Vidal has which no other midfielder in the team has.

He'd be a fantastic signing without a doubt.

While I'm calling for a RWF/RM as our biggest issue right now I have to agree with this. I really rate Nainggolan and I'll be happy if he comes here but it means someone will have to leave. As for now we have a bit too many squad players if you add Nainggolan to that it's even more obvious.

Lucas Moura and Radja Nainggolan! That's all I want for X-mas! It's possible $#@! what our finances say. We can afford them if we advance in CL + stadium revenues, new deal with Bwin and Samsung, Adidas new deal in the coming years, We win serie A again... Get a 3-4 years payment with Cagliari... Moura is 21 worth about 30M.. He will have more playing time at Juve then at PSG.. We sell DC, Vucinic, etc etc... IT'S POSSIBLE... More than Mata worth 45M.. Nuff' said.

"Nainggolan-Juve, almost done. Loan with an option to buy, similar to purchase of Matri few years ago." - GDS

It's not possible it's pointless to fight it really. While Juve might have that kind of cash by simply making a loan the club doesn't have those money itself. We're still suffering from calciopoli, low revenue, Secco's spending and years without CL.

Even if we can spend 30m it won't happen. Spending so much is a big risk and we konw Marotta is good at finding cheaper players. This is the way our management is working right now and it won't change overnight.

Surely for either 4-2-4 or 4-3-3 you need actual wide men?

I don't think either is possible right now, although yeah 4-2-4 is even less of a possibility with Pirlo around


Not entirely sure how i'd feel about a 4-2-4, sounds like it could wipe the floor with bad teams but get overran against the big boys. Also, Vidal and Pogba would probably have a hell of a lot less freedom to push up.

It would work pretty much like 4231 that big guns in Europe use currently.

Buffon
Licht - Barzagli - Bonucci - Chiellini
RW - Vidal - Pogba - LW
Llorente - Tevez​

is the same as

Buffon
Licht - Barzagli - Bonucci - Chiellini
Vidal - Pogba
RW - Tevez - LW
Llorente​

It's pretty much the same especially with Tevez and wingers like Cuadrado. Problem is we'd need two wingers to play that formation, not just one. Vucinic can play as LWF in 433 but not 4231 nor 424. Same goes for Giovinco.

Because neither player wants to play there or is effective there.

not effective enough to almost beat real madrid?

 

[j0ker]

Are you seriously suggesting Marchisio would make a good winger?

Conte on several occasions mentioned the lack of wingers to play 4-3-3.

Effective enough to end up 7th?

 

[alexjuventino]

- - - Updated - - -



you missed the point

Your point was that he could slot into the role and do a good job but Conte simply put him as a winger just balance the amount of men on the wings. Why should we play him as a winger if he will not contribute much offensively in that role?

it seemed to work vs real madrid so I guess so.

right because marchisio playing at LM was the main cause for us finishing 7th.

don't tell me what my point was bambi.

my point was that he has and can play out of position. it's not like he's going to run home crying to his mummy because he's played out of position.

 

[Red]

I trust people understand that the requirements of a winger in 4-3-3 are going to be rather different in a typical Serie A match to what is needed when playing against Real Madrid?

I never said anything about him complaining about him being played out of position but once again you can't read a post without jumping to conclusions

according to Zoso we should play marchisio liek he was played aganist madrid just to play the 4-3-3

 

[j0ker]

Exactly my point.

Marchisio isn't the only reason that we almost beat Real Madrid either.

 

[alexjuventino]

So people are praising Marchisio based off two games in a position he hasnever played in? This is teh same thing that happened last season when he played aganist lazio as a trequartista

- - - Updated - - -

Yet people bash him when he is playing a good game in his normal position

 

[Fr3sh]

Nobody bashes your man-crush. People just overrate him like crazy, you'd think he's a fusion of Zidane and Makelele.

I dont see him overrated. If you look at our current midfielders in his given position both pogba and vidal are better than him however you could argue marchisio has a slight advantage over pogba because of his defensive ability.

I doubt we'll struggle to score with marchisio as lw

according to Zoso we should play marchisio liek he was played aganist madrid just to play the 4-3-3

and according to you we should play bonucci as a regista.

Exactly my point.

Marchisio isn't the only reason that we almost beat Real Madrid either.

I didn't say that, but he did a good job of shutting down marcelo etc

This just in: Nainggolan still not going to Juve, but Inter bound.

by someone leaving i hope you mean the padoins of the world right? nainggolan cant b considered a 'squad player' in the same vein as padoin is considered a 'squad player'...i see him a player that can produce the same impact as PPVM(A) in the midfield...guys, think rotation(during games and during the season) rather than 'who starts'...whoever starts merits it over what they do in games and training and of course the tactical requirements of the conte at the time..some ppl on hear talk as though theyd only b satisfied with a bare eleven quality players...

Buck you told me Jovetic was coming to Juventus.

You broke my heart that day.

It can still happen!

Seriously, I wouldn't be surprised if it happens in the (not so) near future.
