Rosina was the AM in that team, if I remember correctly.
Montolivo, Aquilani and Nocerino formed the midfield.
yup
and as i remember it was nocerino as anchor, montolivo LCM, Aquilani RCM.
didn't work so well
I think that in this game he was in a double pivot in a 4-2-3-1
Yeah, he does a lot of same things as christian ledesma or thiago motta or xabi alonso or michael carrick. Keeps team ticking/moving. Spreads play.
He's no pirlo or aquilani though, when it comes to playmaking vision.
Still provides something milan need.
Like I said, i think allegri is looking for montolivo to play anchor and have our mezzala's do similarto marchisio/vidal with juve. In that sense, someone like asamoah would be a great signing.
