Juventus coach Antonio Conte had his players test out a third new playing formation as he continues to look for ways to improve his side, according to Tuttosport.

Despite the Turin giants setting the pace in Serie A to rave reviews, the form of wingers Milos Krasic and Eljero Elia has come under the spotlight.

His recently implemented 4-2-4 and 4-1-4-1 systems have seen his team race to the top of the league, nonetheless, Conte was testing out a third formation in training.

According to the publication, the 42-year-old had his squad line up in a 4-3-3 set-up, with an attacking trident consisting of Mirko Vucinic, Fabio Quagliarella and Alessandro Matri being considered.

It is believed that Conte is hoping to make it a possible solution should the likes of Krasic and Elia not regain form in the long term, and with Emanuele Giaccherini having picked up an injury at Chievo on Sunday, the need for extra options has been considered by the coach.

Juventus are set to face Genoa in Serie A action on Saturday in Turin.

Sounds like a serious set up! That would mean a midfield of Vidal, Pirlo, and Marchisio!

Vidal is injured...

Good. Finally playing Fabio Quagliarella. Play Del Piero instead of Vucinic. Does not matter if he is out of position, Vucinic is garbage.

Play Storari [Buffon injured], Lichsteiner, Chiellini, Barzagli, De Ceglie, Pepe, Marchisio, Pirlo, Quagliarella, Matri, and Del Piero.

Wow ! 10 Italians. That is the best team. If only Lichtsteiner was not there...

Vucinic is garbage? You must be on crack bro...vucinic is boom! Also Vidal may still play but we Wont know till tomorrow

If Vidal is hurt...please don't let him play...
Also...for Genoa I would go with
...........................Buffon/Storari......................
Lichsteiner.........Barzagli.........Bonucci........Chielllini
............Elia.............Marchisio..........Pepe.......
............Matri...........*QUAG*.........Vucinic
Substitutions:
Pazienza for Marchisio
Del Piero For QUAG OR Del Piero for Vucinic & put QUAG outside
Estigarriba for Elia

Rest Pirlo & Vidal!
we can't become predictable by always depending on Pirlo
we need to groom either Marchisio or Pazienza as his vice until even January...

He can play "Marco Motta :king: " if you want a full ITALIAN team :lol!:

And I really hope people get the true "Vucinic form" that he's giving nowadays,he's really less than average IMO!So Alex all the way

Since when can Matri play as a wide player...? And since when are Elia and Pepe CM's? Jesus sometimes I wonder...

Lmao at the vucinic hate. He's been fantastic, a real link between mid and forwards. He's good at holding the ball and making quick passes.

This forum insight is hilarious. Elia as a CM and Pepe as a CM as well.

@Zarola: the laughing why ? He has not been fantastic at all. Scored a rather simple goal off a mistake and got red-carded subsequently allowing Juventus to not win the game. Great form.

Funny how a team with so many Italian internationals, was unable to qualify for European competition.

- happy?

Funny how you STILL think the Serie A is a tournament. Uneducated fool.

As you said in that Chiellini topic jnc .. one bad game should not be held against the player. I'd agree that he's not a goal scorer and that playing him as a lone striker is moronic and quagliarella is a necessity starter, but don't take away vucinic's importance up front. He has been having some great link up play and taking some dangerous shots and even put in a couple potential motm performances...

Well in a time where Vucinic has played very little games, that one game does matter, especially if one is to say whether or not he has been in good form. He has not replicated his form at Roma and has remained invisible in games. That is a reality. He is a good player, but he has not shown it.

Yeah, tell him now how Pepe is a box to box midfielder.

You are about three months late to a party that never happened. Figment of people's imagination solidified and made possible by the naiveness of some forum members.

Good insight though.

Actually why don't you tell him how intellectual your post was. Oh wait, that dosen't matter, this place isn't intellectual, only the other place is. Oops, breaking the fourth wall... Funny how even to this date, he comes here and checks GL, then decides to post none sense on top of it. But hey, never fear, the intellectual crew is here to help. Let's make a thread, and write a whole essay on what a box to box is shall we?

Where's Giu I need his insights...
