French sports columnist Thierry Cros from “RMC”, who specializes in Italian and Brazilian football, has weighed in on Inter’s acquisition of Yann M’Vila from Rubin Kazan. The journalist gave recognition to the skills of the French player by saying that M’Vila is exactly the type of player who Mazzarri likes.

I guess Mazzarri will try to find the best positions for them both. I have my concerns though since he’s been struggling to find the best positions for most of the players in midfield – Kovacic, Hernanes, Ricky, Guarin. Btw am i the only one who wants to see Ricky on the left wing? He’s got good dribble and a great pass with his left leg. Why is Mazzarri torturing us with Nagatomo?..
i would play 1-2-1 (diamond) in midfield.
————–m’vila————
—-medel———–kovacic—
————-hernanes——–
Hernanes was killer in Lazio while he played like trequartista.
second solution will be:
——–m’villa or medel——
—hernanes——kovacic—-
—————-ricky————-
4-4-2 diamond.. Here we go..
Handanovic
Dambrosio – Vidic – Juan – Dodo
M’Vila
Medel Hernanes
Kovacic
Palacio
Icardi
Handanovic;
D’Ambrosio, Vidic, Juan, Dodo;
M’villa, Medel;
Hernanes, Kovacic, Alvarez/Palacio;
Icardi
I like him already, I’m just worried because in Mazzarri’s formation we can’t have both M’Vila and Medel.
pair M’Vila-Medel makes our defence Very Strong
If you go 4-2-3-1 you can!
True but tell me… Are we benching Kovacic or Hernanes cause neither of them is a winger.
or use 4-3-1-2, with Medel-M’vila as right-left pivot central-midfielder and either Kovacic or Hernanes at the center midfielder or AMC (both of the are swap-able on that two positions).
