We are not playing 4-2-3-1. Its a 4-4-2. Madnzukic plays as a LM, not like an inside forward at all, thats makes it work. Dybala also plays like an SS, not as an AM. And Cuadrado is a winger. I also want to continue with this system. In a real 4-2-3-1 with Sanchez we are taking out a side midfielder and putting in a striker. Its different, very different. Allegri has said as well that he considers Sturaro as a sub for the LM position, because its that, LM, not a forward role.
The more we strengthen the attack by taking off players like Mandzukic and Cuadrado for inside forwards, the more we weaken the midfield.
Nah dude i should correct you there.
We play 4-4-1-1
Because Dybala always play around midfield and behind Higuain.
So much for the 4-2-3-1 some people love! Allegri is making us play that way.
In a real 4-2-3-1 Cuadrado and Mandzukic should score some goals. Here with us they don't even have the chance. Basically 80% of our goals/chances goes through Higuain , 10% Dybala-Pjanic set pieces and the rest on the team.
Barcellona play a real 4-3-3.
Napoli as well.
4-3-3 means having three strikers not coming back on our def line but instead always stay around the midfield line even while we're under attack.
That's why some people say we get less goals with our 4231.... that's because it's not real.
Just to remind you the last 4-2-3-1 seen in Italy was Inter one. Etoo in Mandzukic position was a score machine.. unlike Mario.
Snejder was almost ballon d'or playing behind Milito being a real offensive playmaker.
