He’s rotating Bennacer and Biglia.
I think it's more horses for courses than simple rotation. My hypothesis is that Biglia suits games where we expect to have 60%+ possession, and will play most of the game in the opponent's half. Space is limited, and the regista essentially needs more awareness and distribution ability from more or less the same line rather than mobiity.
Bennacer suits games where the field will get spread more, the regista himself needs to come forward and execute triangles with other midfielders and attackers. He's quite a lot like Sensi in that respect - he can deliver things ahead in the field as well as in front of the defense. When mobility is expected from the regista, play Bennacer.
I expect Bennacer to start against Inter.
