GdS - Pogba to play as RWB against Fiorentina ?

he web edition of "La Gazzetta dello Sport" takes stock of the situation at Juventus, exactly one week from the delicate transfer of Florence. Here is the account of journalist James Gerna, on Gazzetta.it: "The coaches of the senior clubs, including Antonio Conte, detest these stops for the national teams. Because in addition to having to prepare important games in a few days (Juventus is expected to succession from Fiorentina, Real Madrid and Genoa), you are likely to find themselves increasingly squeezed players. Worse still injured. And even in this round, the Bianconeri have paid duty.

Mauricio Isla was injured during Chile-Colombia, accusing a bruised muscle. Difficult to say whether there will be with Fiorentina, surely the Chilean, already struggling with a problematic period, even if available would not be at the top. ABOUT A Former Udinese could be a card to play next Sunday in Florence, as Stephan Lichtsteiner is still doing physiotherapy.'s not difficult to imagine that it is not forced recovery of the Swiss, because Wednesday he played in Madrid.

Simone Padoin There would, but against Milan has not played his chance in the best way. And start of the second Earl replaced him with Paul Pogba, who has acted nell'inedita location outside of right. Frenchman went well beyond the loose ball on the second goal Rossoneri. Dello unfortunate Simone Pepe have gone missing after the recurrence of his hamstring accused a few weeks ago. Martin Caceres is making progress after injury, but this year we have seen only an excerpt in Italian Super Cup and it is not unreasonable to suppose that it can be immediately spendable in a game so complicated.

And if Marchisio in the post-Milan confided "I think Paul has tried to right only once, but it's so hard ...", Conte did not close the door to a possible confirmation right with Fiorentina: "Pogba is full of quality , is a versatile player. If necessary, I could propose it from outside. "And to see him duel with Manuel Pasqual in Fiorentina-Juventus would not be a surprise."

Tbf his crossing >>>>> everybodies except Pirlos.

Honestly its not a bad idea. Hes a good crosser, has good linkup play wwith Vidal, excellent dribbler and not afraid to take on his man, good defensively, and strong as an ox. Only problems are that hes relatively slow, and his positioning and decision making in our own half is not good. But the positioning and decision making will come with time.

Why not use an alternative tactic?

It's kind of a terrible idea imo lol. It's like asking Sergio Ramos or Pepe to play DM at Madrid... it sounded good on paper. But every time we tried it, it was awful.

A player can't just go into such a specialized position as fullback/wingback when he's never played there in his life.

Just to start, Pogba doesn't make the runs and the recovery of a fullback.

I love the idea because it makes our formation more attacking minded;

So instead of having RWB on the team who defends really good we use someone who is more dangerous when he attacks...

So IMO this is not about giving Pogba a WB role, it is about giving the team more options to attack...

I dont think speed is most important on the wings today, because in modern football opponents make more pressure and they don't allow you to run too much with the ball..

Today football is all about tika taka, you got to be a teamwork genius otherwise you can never unlock opponents with dribbling or speed because there are good defenders out there who knows how to block...

Tbh its a good idea. I really agree with ya moggi...
It would basically give us more of an attacking team

I think I'd be ok with it if we were using a 4-4-2 formation and had Licht playing RB (but that would also require Peluso, PDC, or Asamoah at LB). However, we are already conceding poor goals on counterattacks and Pogba doesn't add much in terms of defense. I think we would be very susceptible to attacks on the right side. Then again, it probably can't be worse than Isla.

This is an actual 352
What we normally play is a weird sort of 442
The winger on the side under attack basically becomes the fourth defender


I like this idea, but I would rather see him on the left

Asamoah is not good at crossing at all
