Woj
Cuadrado Bonucci Chiellini AS
Can Pjanic Matuidi
DC Dybala CR7
(442 in defense, Dybala & CR7 up top)

or

Woj
Cuadrado Bonucci Chiellini AS
Can Pjanic
DC Dybala CR7
Mario
(Mandzukic at LM and Ronaldo CF when defending)

please.

Right now, Cuadrado gives more guarantees in defense, but we can't wait for Can. He needs to start over Khedira already.

Cuadrado defensively is no better than Cancelo for sure. He's been tested by Allegri and failed to impress every single time he was played RB. It's better to keep Cancelo in the starting 11 and not ruin his confidence.

Let's bring back the defensive solidity we've always had by getting that extra CB in again while not taking anything away from our attacking firepower.

We need some muscle in the midfield otherwise SMS gone have is way
Best way to stop SMS is to have ball possession. There is no one on the pitch that can muscle him and take it off him. It's better to never give it to him at all.

This and Napoli are the only tough fixtures till mid-November. We need to take advantage of this period. Can't have the typical early season Allegri form. Start Can and quickly find the right system and get on with it.

Need to just about wrap up the scudo before the tough fixtures in April. There's no Sarri's Napoli. No excuses this time. Need the players fresh for CL come April.

But I know it's inevitable. Khedira will start. And we'll see more of DC crossing to Ronaldo the bean pole in the box tactic. He never looked as good at Real as CF aka when Benzema wasn't playing either. He's more static as a CF. His greatest strength is his movement.

Actually that's a great line up

With the type of FBs we have, esp the ones on right who can't defend, there's a chance we'll end up playing that 343. Not now, but later.

We can only play that 3-4-3 with Mandzukic at LAM because he drops back into LM for a 4-4-2 defensive shape (Sandro drops to LB). In that formation, you would ask Ronaldo to do that and that's obviously not an option.

That posted formation is actually the weakest defensive formation, despite 3 CBs. You only have 2 lines with 7 players. No coach would play that except Zeman. One of the front 3 has to drop back to make two lines with 8 players, minimum.
