QUOTE (d'Arc.LP @ Jul 29 2010, 03:15 PM) To bad Ronaldinho got injured. I'd like to so how would Allegri play him. In my opinion we will play with this formation if anyone will not get injured : Abbiati Zambrota - Nesta - Bonera/Papa - Antonini Flamini - Pirlo - Ambrosini Seedorf Borriello - Pato Seedorf playing there will be a problem imo. Pato will need to work his @ss off if we want to see the ball anywhere near the opposition's box. Seedorf passing back to the defence everytime he gets the ball does not bode well for our scoring chances

QUOTE (d'Arc.LP @ Jul 29 2010, 04:53 PM) Borriello's classic striker, Pato has not attributes to be classic striker. He's best when playing as second striker and becouse goals are not important in this tournament I'd like to see Pato more dribling and running than scoring. Every goal gives you a point in this tournament. (IMG: style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) Goals are not important? Pato doesn't have the attributes to be a classic striker? Pato runs, shot, heading, pace, it's all good to amazing. He is our best striker by far, yes, striker! And he is not THAT weak in case you want to say that. He is still very young, he will become even less 'weaker'. Anyway, that's why Borriello is a good partner for him, who is strong and plays along well and moves well.

Anyway, that's why Borriello is a good partner for him, who is strong and plays along well and moves well. Pato is much better when playing as Second Striker and I would NEVER use him as Striker knowing that he is can give his best playing as SS. If we find one Second Striker better than Pato than Ok we play Pato as striker and that x player as SS. Pato isn't classic striker cos' his finishing isn't like Borriello's or Inzaghi's, he is not as good header as they are, and his positioning is not that good. During that playing Borriello has helper of Pato wouldn't be very wise knowing that Borriello is good only before opposite goalkeeper. So playing in that way (Borriello helper of Pato , Pato classic striker) we'd have our attack unbalanced. Leo tried this in the start of last season and Pato scored only against Siena the other games were not good.

Borriello is way more useful than Pippo when already playing Pato. QUOTE (Linkman @ Jul 29 2010, 06:26 PM) Thing is, playing Pato as striker means wasting his great speed and dribble.
He's a kickass finisher too, but he can do more damage from behind, while Bori/Hunter are decent finishers and bad runners. Pato's dribbling is not THAT amazing. Pato's pace and runs are, and that makes him one hell of a dangerous striker, also because he shoots very well (and he can head as well). Pato creates most damage as a striker, BUT I would also give him the freedom to go wide. I want to see movement up front from Pato, Borriello and the AM. I would start this team against Arsenal: Pato, Borriello Verdi Ambrosini, Pirlo, Flamini Antonini, Nesta, Yepes, Papastathopoulos Abbiati Not sure about who to start as RB and CB. I didn't watch last game, but Yepes did well I heard? Also I would like to see how Papastathopoulos plays as RB for us.
