QUOTE (X-Offender @ Sep 2 2019, 07:19 PM) The more I think about it, the more I am convinced of this.
This 4-3-1-2 foolishness has to stop. And instead of going 4-3-3, let's give Paqueta some more attacking freedom and play him in the hole.
But obviously Giampaolo's conservative and ancient mentality will never opt for that. That looks great. The only question mark being Kessie, as he's not that good in a more holding type of role. I'd actually prefer Biglia next to Bennacer over Kessie in that kind of formation. I think they'd complement each other well. Obviously this is moot, I can't see us changing to this kind of system

Obviously this is moot, I can't see us changing to this kind of system I knew someone would bring this up. Let me ask you a question. Out of the three seasons Kessie has played in Serie A thus far, which has been his best? A ) Atalanta 16/17 B ) Milan 17/18 C ) Milan 18/19 The obvious answer is A. And what position did Kessie occupy then? He was part of the double pivot in Gasperini's 3-4-1-2, usually alongside Freuler. What position does Kessie occupy in his NT? Still part of the double pivot in Ivory Coast's 4-2-3-1, as per the Africa Cup of Nations from a couple of months ago. So, why do people doubt him in that role here then? If anything, playing more retracted in midfield would relieve him of most of his offensive freedom (where he makes most mistakes) that come by being played as mezz'ala, and would give him more defensive duties, where he can exert his physicality and pressure on the ball (arguably his strongest suits). Playing Biglia alongside Bennacer would be having two players of similar characteristics, and everyone knows that a double pivot works best when you have both brains (Bennacer) and brawn (Kessie) together.

Agreed, but what irks me most is that Rebić is very unstable mentality-wise. This could turn out to be a problem considering our team.
