Journalist thinks the current Juventus formation has made them stronger

Journalist Gianni Balzarini has observed that Juventus' recent switch to a 3-5-2 formation following a loss to Lazio has brought a sense of stability to the team. Manager Luciano Spalletti has been searching for solutions as Juventus has lacked balance and stability in recent seasons, and he believes the new formation is the right one.

The 3-5-2 formation makes Juventus difficult to break down defensively, while also allowing them to field two attackers simultaneously. This strategy aims to generate more chances and increase the team's scoring frequency. Although the attacking improvements have not yet fully manifested, Juventus has become one of the toughest teams to score against defensively under Spalletti's guidance. With the new system in place, the Old Lady appears settled and ready to maintain their defensive record.

Balzarini, quoted by Tuttojuve, expressed his support for continuing with the 3-5-2 formation, stating that it provides the team with more solidity and enables them to field two attacking players or at least two players with an attacking inclination. The system remains a promising solution for Juventus, but it must continue to deliver results against stronger opposition.

If the team can combine their enhanced defensive organization with greater attacking prowess, the 3-5-2 formation may become the foundation Spalletti has been searching for.
