Interessante ord fra Montella (fra Football Italia siden):
“We’ve got quite a few strikers and the evolution will move towards a trident attack once Pedro gets back into shape. We have found a certain balance with this 3-5-2, which is why I stayed with the same XI again and that is quite rare in my career. It’s worth riding this wave for now.
“I can’t ask Ribery to run up and down the whole flank for 90 minutes, Chiesa can shoot with both feet, so we can also add an extra centre-back to ensure more passing from the back. That’s why this system was developed.”
