The coach of the Italian national team has gone on to state that he is looking to mix things up in the national team and is looking at various tactics and formations.
The Italians used the 3-5-2 formation in the opening fixtures of the European Championships owing to the injury sustained by the Juventus and Italian defender, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Andrea-Barzagli-c5669. The 3-5-2 formation has been used on a number of occasions by various clubs in
the Italian league, with Juventus successfully forming the said formation to great effect.
The Azzurri looked threatening and defensively sound in the formation, and they mixed the formations with the “4-3-1-2” formation as well. When quizzed about the formation that he would be implementing in the coming season, Prandelli went on to state that
they would be looking at various drills and tactics to decide which one to use in the World Cup qualifiers which would be played in the coming week.
Prandelli conceded that he wanted to opt for a side that played with a high tempo, and he would be looking at different aspects of his team’s strength in the upcoming training sessions.
He went on to comment:
“I want a side that plays with more intensity, so I need to have tactical alternatives. We’ll try a few new things in training, starting from today.”
After feeling that the journalists were becoming over his preferences and what he felt he would be applying in the upcoming matches, the former Fiorentina coach remarked that they should calm down and see where things lead them to.
When quizzed about his preference of the 3-5-2 system, Prandelli cautiously replied:
“A three-man defence? Let’s calm down, I don’t think we’ll change things straight away, even if I don’t think I can say at this point that we’ll play with four at the back on Friday.”
The Italian national team would be looking to tackle the likes of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Malta-c2952 in their World Cup qualifiers over the coming week, and Prandelli also talked about the Lega in general, by commenting:
“We are taking steps in the right direction. In the Italian Super Cup two years ago between http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Inter-c39567, there were just two Italians playing...”
Prandelli has called on http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Lorenzo-Insigne-c22431 for the first match in the upcoming matches.
