Sunday opponent: the Bologna FC.
Mihajlovic deploys the 4231 with pressing in many phases (from the opponent's goal kick it becomes a 442 with Soriano striker). They suffer from pressing. It is not only a good test to prepare for the Ajax second leg, but it could be an important match for Europe next year.
Palacio is a false 9, good at assisting and getting the team up from below (he can look for the foul), a little less good with shooting.
They defend man by man on corner kicks.
In fase difensiva, difendono col 631.
The wings are a perverted foot. Right wing: Skov Olsen or Orsolini. Left Wing: Barrow or Sansone. Orsolini has talent (dribbling, assist and shooting), but he is very emotional. At the moment Miha prefers Skov Olsen to him who is more disciplined and is dangerous especially with give and go. Orsolini is dangerous when he goes from right to center to shoot left and Barrow or Sansone the same from the other wing. Sansone is also very dangerous when he enters the center of the small area without the ball to receive crosses.
The best player in the defensive phase is Soumaoro who seeks contact to defend better, so our striker can earn foul in construction and in the offensive phase.
We have to get used to always giving everything to win. Thus a consolidated and consistent winning mentality is built. We play to win and we will win. Daje Roma!
