Like the start for Openda and Mario! Want #22 to do well but I just don't see how you put him at an inside Mid position expecting more creativity though I also would not start Loca there again. Who could be a new starter there?
I'd say just use Thuram as a DM and Mckennie as a B2B. McGoat could also change positions with Cambi and drift to the LW where he can curl them balls in the top corner like he usually does with his silky technique

Draftkings ...
Juve +100
BD +275
Draw +255

Draw no bet
Juve -220
BD +170

BD in league play beat two weak clubs, one losing a man to red 22 minutes into match and tied with good/bad St Pauli? first match of year. They will see close up what mighty Juve possesses. Playing at home, let's get what should be, a win or tie at worst

can we stop fielding fourth cb as right wing now?
Neither kalulu nor McKennie are natural wing, They are neither fast nor can crossing. Gatti and McKennie should be dropped and Cambiaso and Mario fill these spots. Kalulu more fits for CB role to RWB .

Openda getting his first start in this one makes a lot of sense, not only because he knows Bundesliga and Dortmund but also his pace and directness should come in handy in this type of UCL games where we will certainly find spaces to exploit.

Agreed.

Watch them try to press us very high and surprise us with fully open approach.

We need to be careful. Players like Adzic, Yildiz and David will also be key to silence that pressing with their ball control and technical ability and then move the ball up the pitch.

Openda should start, he is by far our best CF as he has shown in the few minutes he played against inter
Vlahovic again would be something beyond mere incompetence.

Cambiaso being back should probably also help with keeping hold of the ball and for a smoother transition, that only if he’s on a good day ofc…

Tbh i’m ok with whichever formula we start in our forward trio, whether Openda or David or even Vlahovic gets the start with Yildiz and Adzic behind the one ST i don’t mind as it would allow us to have game changing subs later on, then i wouldn’t be surprised if we maybe try Yildiz behind two ST’s as an option, either way we’ll surely need a good game from just about everyone to get the win here.
