Yes, imo it is the only way to field Bonucci and soon we will find out if it am right or not, usually i am though and poster s like you disappear...
And then other trolls take their place, with another absurd argument.
I firmly believe that Bonucci is unable to defend, never did and never will, Max knows that and the only chance to keep him on the team without exposing himself daily is by offering him defensive coverage,just like before.
Exceptions will of course again happen, esp if we have injuries, but our first choice will be a 3 man defense!
With all my heart i hope I'm wrong, but is the logical conclusion i sincerely see.
