Juventus have failed to find an identity under Andrea Pirlo and that’s hardly surprising considering he used 34 different line-ups in his debut season.
It has been noted that the Bianconeri under Pirlo rely more on individual talents to get them out of trouble, seemingly showing no certainty over their tactics or style of football.
At the start, he had spoken of a ‘liquid’ tactical approach that would begin with three at the back and then move to four when losing possession.

It seems to have created confusion, as La Gazzetta dello Sport analysed his 34 Serie A matches at the helm.
Not once did he field the same XI players in the same positions.
Many of them had several different roles, such as Danilo at right-back, left-back, a centre-back or even occasionally as a midfielder.
