By the way guys, I just had a thought. Is Asamoah left footed? I can't remember. My guess is that he is. Now here is an idea.
How about a 433 with Asamoah on the right? Being left footed is better in that case because you cut in and shoot with your left while Lichsteiner can still make runs for the crosses.
Giovinco, Vucinic or even Tevez can play on the left side of the front 3. So imagine this:
-------------------Buffon------------------
Lichsteiner----Barzagli---Bonucci----Chiellini
-------Vidal---Pirlo----Marchisio/Pogba------
Asa/Pepe------Tevez/Llorente----Vuci/Tevez/Gio
Actually Asamoah has all the characteristics to play well in that role - he has a great shot on him.
The great thing about that formation is that the same players are on the pitch as if we were playing 352 - i.e to revert back to 352 Asamoah moves back to the left wingback position and Barzagli, Bonucci, Chiellini return to a back 3 with Lichsteiner further advanced.
Could be a useful variation during the game if the team can get used to it. 4231 Is also possible if you push Marchisio up.
