Double training session with a… special fan. And the Juventus coach is trying new solutions, waiting for the transfer market
– Los Angeles (USA)
Training in the morning and encore in the afternoon: Juventus’ American routine began with a double session, which will become the norm these days. After the free afternoon granted by Massimiliano Allegri, yesterday the bianconeri started working at Loyola University, the same location chosen a year ago during the summer tour.

An exceptional spectator attended the second session: Giorgio Chiellini, who first came to greet his former team-mates at the hotel in Marina del Rey, and then moved with them to the training ground. When the job was done, the former Juventus captain stopped for a long time to talk to Massimiliano Allegri, with whom he has always had an excellent feeling. Who knows if the coach will have revealed something about Juventus that he has in mind.

Training in the States allows you to get an idea of how Max is working and what approach he wants to give to the new team. The three-man defense is a starting point but not a dogma: Allegri wants a team that knows how to adapt to various game situations and doesn’t have a single formation in mind, but different solutions to make the most of the qualities of its players.
three-way defense

Basically we will start from the 3-5-2, which is the ideal habitat for Bremer, the central pivot of the defense. He and Danilo are untouchable, Gatti is a candidate for the third shirt, with Alex Sandro and Rugani as alternatives. With this game system you can take advantage of the breadth and incursions of the new signing Weah and Kostic, with Cambiaso and Iling ready to take over. In attack with today’s men, the starting duo would be Vlahovic-Milik, but at the moment the Serbian is out and will not play against Milan. Even Milik isn’t at the top, he took a blow to the calf but he should make it for the friendly against the Rossoneri. In any case, the Serbian and the Pole are at ease both with another nearby attacker and between two wingers. Logical that in the trident only one of the two would be the owner.

From 3-5-2 to 3-4-3 the step is short: this formation guarantees the solidity of the three-man defense but also the possibility of exploiting, for example, the qualities of Chiesa in the trident. In yesterday afternoon’s training, the blue already appeared in good condition, he created and scored from outside.

The alternative is the back four, which in addition to the trident (the version tested yesterday in training) also includes the variant with two points and a finisher. Miretti can currently play in that position, even if one of Juventus’ goals is the Danish Lindstrom of Eintracht, who would be perfect to play in that position. But first the Bianconeri have to sell, in the meantime Allegri will have to deal with the men he has. There is no shortage of ideas, now we need to put them into practice.
