Rumored lineup of

Perin
Danilo - Bonucci - Bremer
Cuadrado - Zakaria - Locatelli - Miretti - Kostic
Vlahovic - Di Maria

Would be a 3-5-2 in defense with both Kostic and Cuadrado having WB duties in defense but having freedom to push up in attack.

Kostic thrown into starting lineup a few days after joining would be very uncharacteristic of Max. Very few players got a similar treatment.

Brazilian defenders have become a lot more 'European' and better defensively over the past 15 or so years, and the approach of their NT more rounded (some would say defensive) since the days of Scolari and Dunga.
Same with goalkeepers.

To add to the point even though Brazil started leaning more towards a compact defensive game initially in the early 90s and even though they produced world class defenders then like Cafú and Aldair, the sheer talent of the attacking players totally overshadowed the defenders.

The fact Brazil can’t produce high level attackers in abundance anymore changed the spotlight to other areas of the pitch but the good defenders were always there imo. You can go as far back as Nilton Santos and Carlos Alberto Torres to find world quality defensive players.

This is Allegri`s last chance for me (not that he would give a f...).
If he fails to get the win he should be sacked immediately.

Btw how do most people watch the games these days? Streams? Acestream? Sopcast? Or is everybody grown up enough now to pay for it on real TV? :grin:
