I would really hate if we went back to 3-5-2. You can't keep the 4-4-2 for Europe only. We should keep using it to get accustomed with this.

It's so meh to look at things that way. Many of our goals this season came after 60' mark while we were struggling to create barely anything upfront. We looked like dead corpses on many of our matches and some of those wins came out of nowhere.
Last night we created more in the first 20 minutes than on 3 combined matches in Serie A. We just slowed the temp down cause we were at risk to lose the race, otherwise the difference in quality between the formations were pretty big.
Hopefully our board won't start implementing it only when we start losing.

Well no he had to do that in reality, he had little choice. But as I said before the game, it seems the right call considering we had to be the team taking the initiative.
For the record I'd be quite happy to see the same approach against Parma, that is an ideal game to develop the approach in the league. But also I don't agree that the 3-5-2 should now be phased out because we had a more impressive attacking game and played nicer football. I surely wasn't the only one who noticed how many times we were exposed on the counter attack, there are pros and cons to all approaches. But yes, in Serie A we would face less quality on those counters, and as Buffon says, with the quality of respective players 1 v 1 sometimes you have to allow that risk for the greater cause.
