[Supercoppa] JUVENTUS 2-0 Lazio (August 8th, 2015) (52 Viewers)

Because they haven't changed their team as much as we have, and don't have key injuries.

The fact that we have some injuries (and my comment was posted before the Morata injury) doesn't make our team lesser than theirs, FFS. We're light years ahead.

And if we won all the friendlies in the pre-season, would you be concerned about the changes in the team?

We didn't, but our form is still better than theirs.

Don't get me wrong, we are a lot better, but we also have areas to work on between midfield and attack, whereas Lazio's team is basically the same as last year, so that bridges a technical gap. Also, I was having a look at their probable squad and bench. They are only missing Parolo and Ravel "Zidane" Morrison, they have some good and interesting depth, right now we lack a bit.

Buffon

Neto, Rubinho, Rugani, Barzagli, Padoin, Isla, Tello, Vitale, Coman, Zaza, Llorente, Cerri

Looking at their team I suspect we may go with 3-5-2 and drop Pereyra for Rugani.

I would. I would prefer Caceres to be playing out wider than in the middle. His height is an issue for me.

His concentration is an issue for me, especially in tandem with Bonucci

 

[icemaη]

Of all the problems I have with Caceres, his height would be the last thing to cross my mind

Dont like this if true. Barzagli already in the line up is risky imo

 

[WΏΏdy?]

It's a fairly new set up and it has not been tested in a competitive match yet. I see Lazio winning this (if they havent made any major changes to their starting XI)

I hope the players realise the shirt they are playing for, go into beast mode and KILL THEM ALL!

We're so inviting them to attack us with that formation, wich actually wouldn't be a bad thing. We could kill them with counters but only if Pereyra starts instead of Sturaro.

I'm curious to see how Mandzukic will do in this formation but then again i dont want to see a 3-5-2 with licht

Bad lineup. Will be disappointed if Allegri does it, for a lot of reasons. Just bad.

You go with the best available we've got - and that includes Pereyra - a 4312 with Pereyra - Dybala - Mandzukic and it's a much much better team. Can't even compare it.

I like that lineup but would prefer Rugani in there.
