But it will succeed.
Changing the defense becomes a problem even if all 4 are world class players. They will need time to work on offside traps and develop mutual understanding. It takes time for that and I'm not sure if Bonucci-Caceres has been ever tried, even on training. On top of it we only have 2 days to prepare for this match.
The midfield will have to play a monster match and reduce the potential balls going Di Vaio's way. That man lives on escaping offside traps. He should have a field day against defenders who don't know each other and aren't top quality.

So if we play this:

Buffon
Lichtsteiner - Bonucci - Caceres - De Ceglie
Vidal - Pirlo - Marchisio
Pepe - Matri - Vucinic​

What happens if one of those CBs (Bon and Caceres) get injured during a game. Who do we have to fill in...

Marrone or Padoin will come in and Vidal will play CB I assume.
Is that what they're reporting? Is Conte that insistent on a back 3 that he will use players out of position at CB? We have Pepe, Vidal and Vucinic available. Has he written off the 4-3-3 forever?

Why not the - unimaginative, yes - back 4 of: Licht--Caceres--Bonucci--DC ?

If it's any consolation, it's a better group on an individual level than: Motta--Bonucci--Chiello--Grosso

Although it may just bad as a unit :D

And Bonucci has had plenty of playing time yet people would prefer he starts after causing us to drop 4 points in two games. Now with Barzagli & Chiellini both gone would still rather have him play. :rolleyes:
Bonucci has had plenty of sucking time.
