Key points
- McKennie's return could reshape midfield options as Juve weighs 3-5-2 or 4-3-2-1 formations

- Sarr to be tested against NEC as Juve seeks alternatives in crowded attacking midfield
AI summary
Tuttosport's YouTube analysis focuses on Juve's response to the Sassuolo defeat, rejecting calls for panic over Spalletti despite Conte speculation. The core issue is tactical balance: the second half in Reggio Emilia exposed defensive vulnerabilities and counterattack problems that cannot become routine for a Champions League contender.
McKennie's return to training offers a midfield solution, potentially enabling either a three-man centre or a wider role in a 3-4-2-1. Sarr faces an immediate audition against NEC. Zhegrova's Europa League exclusion reflects summer transfer strategy—the club expected to sell him to Al Ittihad and did not plan for injuries to complicate squad depth in an already crowded attacking midfield.
