Cuadrado's performance against Empoli highlighted that he is a great wing back and his speed is meaningful on counters. But he is unlikely to score from that position as he is right footed and the angle is always going to be against him. He needs to be less selfish and square it unless he is in a more central position.
Dybala and Higuain are clearly first choice. However, if Dybala is rested, I would like to see a 433 with Pjaca and Cuadrado flanking Higuain. That would be pretty effective in my view.
Other option would be to use Cuadrado as a mezzala in the central 3 regardless of whether we adpopt a back 3 or back 4. Cuadrado works hard in defense and offers a lot of speed going forward. Would be interesting to see him play in Khedira's position.

In FIFA 2016 it was a very very good formation in Ultimate Team. Very underrated.
His finishing has never been good so trusting him with scoring shouldn't be a priority, but his fantastic runs should be utilised very much like this:
A couple of 1-2s, Cuadrado blasts it down the flank, cuts inside, and passes it to a rushing mid/attacker. A very good player to use in the CL against teams like Bayern who hold the ball but are vulnerable on the counter.

I think this could be a viable formation:
------------------Buffon-------------------
Alves----Bonucci----Chiellini----Sandro
--Cuadrado----Marchisio-----Khedira---
------------------Pjanic--------------------
-----------Dybala------Higuain-----------
Cuadrado plays as a B2B which I think he could be rather good at.

Really? I never able to play with 352 in footie games, too vulnerable on wing counter, and the extra men on midfield is useless against stronger teams that use 4231/433
Which is exactly similar to what we can see in reality
I assume that many juventini would ditch 352 when they use this team on games

We've tried to replace two of the most energetic midfielders in the world with Khedira and Pjanic, no wonder we aren't playing well. Then you take out Marchisio and put in Hernanes.....
Our midfield is awful as a unit and we are playing in a formation based on it. Worrying how few chances we create and how many goals have come from set pieces and long shots this season.

i'd be interested to see if dani alves could work as a cm for us like he played for brazil in wc
he has flair and fancy and is direct and likes to run behind defenders. and those flicks of his can be very useful.
it would also allow us to play him and cuadrado and still emply 3-5-2
9-21
18-8-23-
12-4-19-15-7

When/ if everybody gets fit I would like to see a
4-4-1-1
Alves-BonBon-Barza-AS
Cuad-Lemina-Marchisio-Pjaca
Dybala
Higuain
When we need a more defensive approach we could play Evra/Licht as LB/RB and move AS/Alves to LM/RM.
Pjanic as Dybala sub and Mandzu as Higuain sub. With the lack of quality CMs this could be the way to go.

Exept for Chellini for Barza, This is more like it: a balanced formation (given Lemina ups his defensive game a bit) but still brings threat down those lines. Alves and Alex Sandro has great overlaping and crossing ability, but Allegri needs to instruct them when to break forward and when to sit back in the correct manner. Can't believe were having problems with this team, were stacked with talent, somehow we just can't play the way we should yet.
i'm fine with that, but let's play lemina instead of khedira. sami is out of form atm, and khedira+pjanic are simply too soft together.
