Too many goals conceded: Gotti still marries the three-man defense

The set-up with Becao, Nuyticnk and Samir offers more guarantees In the middle of the field to make a better filter Makengo di Arslan

He tried it in training after clearing it when necessary in the league, then he worked on it by presenting it also in last Saturday’s friendly, deputy to tests during the break, and finally he put it back in the drawer. We are talking about the 4-2-3-1, the new module that Luca Gotti has in mind for the future, but which will not be the suit that the Contarina coach will wear at Udinese on Sunday, at the kick-off of the match against Bologna scheduled at 3 pm at the Rizzi.

The tailoring work is evidently not finished, and certainly not for lack of “fabric”, considering the recoveries of Gerard Deulofeu and Nacho Pussetto, arrows to be added to an attack that in the last championship in Marassi recorded the first seasonal goals of Beto and Fernando Forestieri. By the way, it was the Argentine himself who remembered how “it was not easy” to change form to get used to 4-2-3-1 last Saturday in the post-friendly interview.

And then perhaps it is the time factor, in relation to the learning that Gotti evaluates day by day on the training ground, that delineates the delay of the launch. Or else it is the demands of classification that impose the wise adage that advises not to leave the old road for the new one. Moral, on Sunday Udinese will present themselves again with the three-man defense at the starting line, which brings back to the more than likely 3-5-2, which is the form with which Udinese started all its first matches of championship, Italian cup included. And in defense, needless to say, they will still be there, that is Becao, Nuytinck and Samir, the “three” line in front of Silvestri that Gotti has always lined up as a starter. The “three amigos” are ready and are not just reminiscent of an old and hilarious John Landis comedy / western, but synthesize the union and growing understanding of three defenders who, taken one by one, are offering a high return.

However, Udinese has still conceded eleven goals and in the last four games (Napoli, Roma, Fiorentina and Sampdoria) has never closed the door, all data that put the flea in the ear of Gotti, in search of proper cover. The problem is there, it is in the filter, and it is precisely there that the technician is thinking of launching the Pereyra-Walace-Maknego trio in the median, where the return of Molina from Argentina, scheduled for tomorrow, could facilitate the choice of Styger Larsen and Destiny Udogie to be placed on the flanks, right there where the two nationals returned to base trained yesterday together with a group in which Nehuen Perez has not yet returned, awaiting evaluation for a possible call-up to the bench.

All that remains is to examine the offensive department, and here everything leads to the confirmations of Deulofeu and Beto, a couple launched in Marassi, and to be reviewed, with Gotti asking the two to look for each other much more than what they did in Genoa. The teaching work carried out in recent weeks at Bruseschi should show the first improvements, but what matters is that the Catalan is confident, and returning to training with his teammates since the beginning of the week has shown that he has put the bruised right ankle behind him. in Genoa and that had caused us to worry not a little. –
