After four games I think we've all more or less formed an idea of what this team is capable of. Our strengths, our weaknesses, the areas of potential growth etc. So, what is in your opinion the formation Pippo can play based on what you've seen so far?

Obviously the player choices can be different, I just went with the most popular ones (like Rami and Alex as CBs). Also I believe we can all agree that Menez and Honda are best utilized as free roamers behind the striker in choices 2 and 3, but another option would be for Honda as AM behind Menez and Torres.

Please vote and give your opinion.

PS: Move thread to Polls if possible as I can't post in there.

It's a tricky matter. I keep having a change of heart every now and then, although in all honesty I think all three formations look good.

4-2-1-3 would allow us to have a more modern approach to the game, using attacking wingers and as well as the trequartista, plus giving enough cover to the defense with the double pivot.

4-3-2-1 is perhaps the more rational one, closest to what we've been playing, and with a more fluid midfield with Bonaventura instead of Muntari.

However, I think I'll have to agree with Kurt that a 3-man defense is perhaps the best way to go in Serie A. I actually like it a lot. It just clicks in everything. Defensive stability, use of wings and enough attacking power upfront. I just wish that if Pippo decides to go with it, he doesn't use a 5-man midfield like Juve, but 3-4-2-1 as I've put it above, because I absolutely want Menez and Honda behind Torres. I think it's more balanced as well, whereas 3-5-2 is more pragmatic and defensive-minded. Not to mention we would need different players in midfield.

So yeah, I'll give my vote to the last one this time.
