1- Marchisio Mellberg Legro Molinaro
This is our strongest available centre defence pair. Marchisio is being tested in a new position which is the only risk.
2- Mellberg Legro Ariaudo Molinaro
In this we have strengthened the right side and even of Legro-Ariaudo have played together they haven't played in a game as big as tonight's.
So what do you think is better, have our defence stronger in the middle or on the flank?
Personally, I'd rather have as much defensive strength in the middle as possible.

Ariaudo is a promising player, but we should continue to use against low profile teams.
throwing him in against Pandev-Zarate-Rocchio trio is not a good idea as he could be overwhelmed. and the last thing he needs is a to make a mistake that can shatter his confidence
I don't think so , Cron , Criscito has been given many chances before Loaned out to Genoa , He played so many games included againts Big team , Most i recall was againts Roma and definitely outplayed by Totti , Mental attribute is a keyword here , maybe we should try Ariudo againts big team , and if he could handle it well , Bright future is ahead .
We have to weaken ourselves at either right or centre back and you can be sure Lazio will try their best to exploit it. Personally, I would rather see Legro - Mellberg as the centre back pairing.
